                                  Internationalise The Fediverse

                                  shkspr.mobi/blog/2024/02/inter

                                  We live in the future now. It is OK to use Unicode everywhere.

                                  It seems bizarre to me that modern Internet services sometimes "forget" that there's a world outside the Anglosphere. Some people have the temerity to speak foreign languages! And some of those languages have accents on their letters!! Even worse, some don't use English letters at all!!!

                                  A decade ago, I was miffed that GitHub only supported some ASCII characters in its project names. There's no technical reason why your repo can't be called "ഹലോ വേൾഡ്".

                                  Similarly, I'm frustrated that Mastodon (the largest ActivityPub service) doesn't allow Unicode usernames and has resisted efforts to change.

                                  So I built a small ActivityPub server which publishes content from an Actor called @你好@i18n.viii.fi - it is only a demo account, but it works!

                                  Some ActivityPub clients report that they are able to follow it and receive messages from it. Others - like Mastodon - simply can't see anything from it. Take a look at the replies on Mastodon to see which services work. You can also see some of its posts on the Fediverse.

                                  What Does The Fox Spec Say?

                                  The ActivityPub specification says:

                                  Building an international base of users is important in a federated network. Internationalization

                                  I can't find anything in the specifications which limits what languages a username can be written in. But there are a few clues scattered about.

                                  The user's @ name is defined by preferredUsername which is:

                                  A short username which may be used to refer to the actor, with no uniqueness guarantees. 4.1 Actor objects

                                  There's nothing in there about what scripts it can contain. However, later on, the spec says:

                                  Properties containing natural language values, such as name, preferredUsername, or summary, make use of natural language support defined in ActivityStreams. 4. Actors

                                  So it is expected that a preferred username could be written in multiple scripts. Which implies that the default need not be limited to A-Z0-9.

                                  The ActivityStreams specification talks about language mapping.

                                  Finally, the ActivityPub specification has some examples on non-Latin text in names.

                                  So, I think that it is acceptable for usernames to be written in a variety of non-Latin scripts.

                                  But What About...?

                                  There are usually a few objections to "Unicode Everywhere" zealots like me. I'd like to forestall any arguments.

                                  What about homograph attacks?

                                  Well, what about them? ASCII has plenty of similar looking characters. I doubt most people would notice when a capital i is replaced by a lower L - and vice-versa. Similarly the kerning issue of an r and n looking like an m is well known. Are mixed language homographs more dangerous? I don't think so.

                                  What if people make names that can't be typed?

                                  Well, what if they do? Maybe not being found by people who can't type your language is a feature, not a bug. But, anyway, clients can let users search for other people, or copy and paste their names.

                                  What about weird "Zalgo" text?

                                  It is up to a client to decide how they want to render text input. The "problems" of strange Unicode combinations are well known. This is not a hard computer-science problem.

                                  What about bi-directional text?

                                  The spec makes clear this is allowed.

                                  Do people even want a username in their own script?

                                  I have no evidence for this. But I bet you'd get pretty frustrated if you had to switch keyboard just to type your own name, wouldn't you? In any case, why can't I have a username of @😉

                                  What's Next?

                                  If you build ActivityPub software, give some thought to the billions of people who don't have names which easily fit into ASCII.

                                  If your software can see @你好@i18n.viii.fi and its posts, please let me know.

Wo finde ich die? Gibt es Gruppen? Oder nur Listen? Wenn ich oder eingebe, finde ich nur eine Handvoll Einträge. Fühle mich ein bisschen verloren hier. Was ich nicht vermisse: Werbung, Filter und "Schaut-her-wie-geil-mein-Leben-ist"-Posts.

                                                                                        I get it. Many of us get frustrated when we see people flocking to a VC-funded fediverse competitor.

                                                                                        But let's focus this energy on making the fediverse a place people want to spend their time in.

I’m excited to talk to other people who care about the Fediverse about ways to connect more people through ActivityPub.

                                                                                                    Fediforum invited attendees to publish position papers before the workshop. SWF has a number of hypotheses about growth of the social web; I’ll try to summarise some of them here.

                                                                                                    • Growth can’t come at the expense of privacy. People currently on the Fediverse must have the tools they need to preserve their privacy as the network grows. This means privacy from other users, as well as privacy from new platform operators. Expanding the options for private interactions on the Fediverse, like end-to-end encrypted messages and private groups, is necessary for preserving privacy as the user base and platform list expands.
                                                                                                    • Connecting platforms to the Fediverse is our most efficient way to grow. There are already billions of people on social platforms across the Internet. Getting these platforms to let users publish to the Fediverse, as well as having two-way interactions with remote users, lets people share in the benefits of the Fediverse with a platform and interface that they’re already used to. Even when brand new social platforms adopt ActivityPub, they bring their new features and users.
                                                                                                    • Connecting communities helps us grow fast and stay cohesive. Bringing formal and informal communities onto the Fediverse is a great way to enable a lot of new users quickly. By formal communities, we mean organized groups like clubs, universities and schools, professional societies, enterprises, or local and regional governments. These groups can set up their own places on the Fediverse, like Mastodon servers, and provide user accounts for all their members. (One great way to connect formal communities is to Fediverse-enable the community platforms they already use.) These new Fediverse users have the kind of connections in place that retain active users, as well as the support they need to use the Fediverse. More informal communities, like people sharing the same profession, fans of a particular hobby, or users of a language or technology, can be great additions to the Fediverse, but these groups are less cohesive and less likely to bring their own infrastructure.
                                                                                                    • People come to social networks for existing social ties. Bringing on new users one-by-one is the most difficult way to grow this network. The best way to engage new users on the network, and to keep them active and interested, is to make sure they can connect to people they already know and care about. That may be friends, family, colleagues and neighbours, or brands, creators, and publications they recognise. Our onboarding processes for Fediverse users need to encourage the social contacts so that people feel a reason to stick around for day 2, 7, and 30.

                                                                                                    We’re looking forward to engaging with the Fediforum community on these and other topics. We’ll see you on March 3!

                                                                                                    - Fediverse tech roadmap 2024

                                                                                                    However, I didn't publish such post this year because not much has happened in 2025. Many problems I talked about require complex solutions, but unfortunately proposed solutions are often very limited or lead to centralization. Or worse, there is no solution but only an imitation of work. I don't want to write about that.

                                                                                                    I saw a thread today where ATProto ecosystem was compared to #ActivityPub. Things are happening in the Atmosphere, but not in Fediverse. MAU graphs are flat. What's going on?

                                                                                                    There are multiple factors at play, but I think fake activity may be the biggest contributor. Trivial developments presented as breakthroughs. Features that already exist somewhere in Fediverse presented as new inventions. Vaporware. Specs written by people who have no idea how to implement them. Working groups that do nothing but meetings.

                                                                                                    Real work is ignored, competent developers see that and quit.

                                                                                                    We need to fix this.

                                                                                                    For my part, I will continue to document #Fediverse development at @weekinfediverse. But this newsletter doesn't have much impact.

A simple, self-hosted web gallery with integration. No multi-user management, no filters, no stories, and a local upload script. Follows and likes from the are possible. It's an early alpha version, but the basics work in under 1800 LoC . Now all that's missing is the final design and code cleanup 🥳🎉

                                                                                                                Have you noticed how the modern web has slowly turned from a tool of discovery into a digital feed-lot?

                                                                                                                We’ve become "Engagement Zombies." Most people don't browse the internet anymore; they just consume the output of a black-box algorithm designed by a corporation to maximize ad revenue.

                                                                                                                The Cycle of Degradation:

                                                                                                                1. Critical Thinking is Bypassed: Algorithms don't show you what’s true or useful; they show you what triggers a reaction. We've traded deep focus for a dopamine-driven scroll.
                                                                                                                2. Data Commodification: Your behavior, your metadata, and even your "private" preferences are harvested, packaged, and sold to the highest bidder. You aren't the customer; you are the product being refined in real-time.
                                                                                                                3. Reactive Consumption: People buy what the feed shows them and believe what the feed tells them. It’s a closed feedback loop where the user is just a biological component of a profit machine.

                                                                                                                Why I’m here (and why I use my own stack):
                                                                                                                Shifting to Self-Hosted services and moving my mobile environment to GrapheneOS is more than just a technical preference. It’s a deliberate decoupling from the surveillance capitalist machine. By using decentralized networks like Misskey, I’m practicing intellectual self-defense — deciding exactly what enters my cognitive space.

                                                                                                                It’s about reclaiming "root access" over my own attention. I want my feed to be a result of my choices, not a calculation made by a billionaire’s AI.

                                                                                                                Let’s be real: Are we still the masters of our tools, or have the tools started training us?

                                                                                                                I want to hear from you:

                                                                                                                - When was the last time you found something truly interesting without an algorithm suggesting it to you?
                                                                                                                - Do you feel like you're in control of your digital life, or are you just "along for the ride"?
                                                                                                                - Does the idea of "leaving the grid" (Big Tech) feel like freedom or like losing a limb?

Is this a presentation? Will there be panel discussion?
What type of seating/room set up do you require?
What AV equipment would you require? Will this be hybrid?

The version was about 3 years out of date. Now on 8.0 and wow does it look better - and it also now works with the app. Thanks !

Oder im juristischen Sinne? Gibt es überhaupt eine juristische Definition des Begriffs?

A softly textured hot air balloon drifts through a sky of layered clouds, painted in calming blues, warm neutrals, and gentle earth tones. The brushwork creates a dreamy, painterly effect while the balanced colors give it a refined, wall-ready feel-perfect for spaces that call for lightness, movement, and a touch of quiet beauty.

I specialise in front end theming and site building, however can also turn my hand to custom functionality and modules.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I've been for a few years now, however I'm also open to full-time, permanent gigs, preferably or lightweight .

                                                                                                                                                                                                  If you'd like a conversation to see if my skillset fits, I'm all ears.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              It all works great, but - each time it fully discharges I need to press ON button.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              I want to bypass it with a mosfet - connect gate to battery pack output and wire drain and source to button pins.

You can change the 500-char limit to 7500 (or more) while staying on the official Docker images.
