@blog Yes, it’s a shame that Fedi public keys for HTTP signatures are not publicly accessible in authorized fetch scenarios. That doesn’t make much sense to me. The reason for it (fragment-based key IDs in Mastodon) is obscure and seems arbitrary to me. The fix is relatively easy, but I don’t see much motivation to fix it.

I’m beginning to wonder if the email mental model some people suggest for #ActivityPub is a serious hindrance to understanding the concept of a federated, decentralized social graph.

@trwnh @devnull So ActivityPub is basically just WebMail? ;-) Where does the social graph and applications (far) beyond twitter-like clones fit into this view?

@silverpill I'm not comfortable with the "hosts=" approach either because the full URI still depends on domain names.

Is anybody aware of the #ActivityPub actor “streams” property being used in an implementation?

I wanted to be able to search and browse the #ActivityPub Fediverse Enhancement Proposals (FEPs) so I converted them to an Obsidian vault. As a nice side-benefit, I can now view the graph of FEP dependencies and their color-coded status (green=FINAL, yellow=DRAFT, red=WITHDRAWN).
