@iwojima @iwojima @eeee I was able to send a Follow activity to @eeee but haven't received an Accept yet (maybe this is how it works in fchan).

Can't retrieve any object. Fchan returns some kind of collection instead

@iwojima @iwojima I'll help with that. Mitra can't see certain fchan groups because the value of preferredUsername field is not always valid (at least in the rest of Fediverse). For example in "fedi" group it contains a whitespace:

@eeee works fine on my end because it has valid username

@juanro49 @vincent The latter issue was first reported almost 3 years ago:

https://github.com/NicolasConstant/BirdsiteLive/issues/129

I hope it will get fixed soon

@iwojima Cool. If you're familiar with fchan codebase we can try to make it interoperable with Mitra. That shouldn't be very difficult

@evan @jonny @steve Well, no, 'ap' stands for Activity Pub. FEP-ef61 is not a different protocol, it only adds new features to the existing one. Furthermore, these features can be implemented in backward compatible way (@nomad can confirm).

The URI scheme is not set in stone, however. I agree that this is not a standard way to retrieve objects, and there might be other practical reasons to use a different scheme. I think it can be changed to 'nomad' as @django suggested, or perhaps to 'ap+nomad' or something like that.

@evan @jonny @steve Do you have any suggestions?

'ap' URLs are used by at least two projects, so we can't change the URL scheme easily, but I can add a note to the FEP saying that recommended scheme may change in the future.

@evan @jonny @steve I can't think of a better name. This is a protocol for retrieving self-authenticating ActivityPub objects, 'ap' seems very appropriate.

@evan @jonny @steve 'ap' URLs in FEP-ef61 are dereferenceable. Just like 'https' URLs, they are locations, but of a different kind. Instead of domain name system the naming authority is a cryptographic key.

@fedicat You can find "Repost with comment" in the post menu when browsing a thread

@fedicat Mitra implements this Pleroma API feature.

@steve All recommendations there are non-normative, I'll try to make it clearer (and I don't intend to submit this document to FEP repository, it will be moved to another location in the future).

@steve Yes, but I don't think that will happen. This is why I started ActivityPub for developers

@dansup And no mention of Mastodon protocol? Very concerning

@nimda I need to add badges for roles. Mitra already can display "Admin" badge but only if you're looking at your own profile page. Not useful

FEP-c0e0: Emoji reactions

This should be possible with did:web authority (existing implementations use did:key). I haven't yet researched what our options are, but here are my bookmarks related to this problem:

- https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-self-issued-v2-1_0.html
- https://w3c-ccg.github.io/vp-request-spec/#did-authentication
- https://git.juici.ly/consensual/federated-auth-network/src/branch/master/SPEC.md

Alternatively, FEP-ae97 provides a different path to nomadic SSO where identity key is stored on a client side, so users can simply copy their key when switching clients. As long as activity integrity proof is valid, it would be accepted by servers.

@maegul FEP-ef61 is compatible with Mastodon, it doesn't create a separate network like alternative protocols do. Connection only breaks when data is moved from the original server to another one, but that's not different from what we have now. Within the sub-network of FEP-ef61 implementations, users can enjoy persistent identities.

@mischievoustomato

Cool, have you installed it already?

(I've almost finished implementing emoji reactions, by the way)

@vriska @lunarised @bot @arcana

@tadano @mint Emoji reactions are almost done, will be included in the next release.

However, in Husky they should already work. Have you tried the latest version, 1.6.0 ?

@tadano mitra-web uses assets/startpage-3aa38eda.png as bg image, you need to use the exact same path
