@nomad It was discovered that mention of @nomad caused many servers to reject the whole message, because the Mention tag contained a raw 'ap' URL and not a compatible HTTP URL. Mastodon, Pleroma, probably many others too. This has been fixed

FEP-ef61 is mostly OK. I don't expect any major changes there

Updated FEP-ae97: https://codeberg.org/silverpill/feps/src/branch/main/ae97/fep-ae97.md

#fep_ef61

Welcome @nomad, the first ever FEP-ef61 + FEP-ae97 actor.

It doesn't have S2S inbox yet, but it has C2S outbox and was created from a client. The client controls the identity key, can send signed messages to local users, and receive messages from them. I published the code here: https://codeberg.org/silverpill/fep-ae97-client

FEP-ae97 clients are not difficult to build, and I invite everyone to do so. C2S protocol is identical to S2S protocol, except you send activities to a local outbox instead of a remote inbox, and you pull activities from local inbox instead of listening for them online. The development version of Mitra already has necessary endpoints. FEP-ae97 spec needs to be updated though, I will do that soon.

@iwojima @mint I can fetch the actor but my follow activity induced 500 Internal Server Error on their side

@iwojima @c0mmando Only frontend is served via Tor there (no federation yet). But even that was not possible before

@c0mmando Nice. Can confirm, it is working.

@frogzone @r @nimda Yes it only searches one's own posts, that's intentional. I may implement full search in the future (probably will be opt-in like in Mastodon).

In mitra-web you can click on any hashtag to see tagged posts, and searching for hashtag is also supported. How we can make it work in Bloat?

@hongminhee Yes. I think this is a good idea, because Question-object can gracefully degrade to a "post" in apps that don't support polls.

@frogzone @nimda Try again, should work as expected now

@japananon @spirobel It was, but nobody used it. I think federation could fix that

@japananon @spirobel Could you ask him about the forum, forum.monerochan.news ? He could install ActivityPub plugin there and join the network

@spirobel @japananon

>But I think it will grow, [...]. In this scenario commercialization becomes inevitable, and by default it will be a strong centralizing force, unless the foundation for the peer to peer economy is laid out early on

Aged like wine. Today, talking about payments has become acceptable and invariably the solution is either a centralized provider like Stripe or some non fungible surveillance coin.

@japananon Nice, thank you. Did you know @spirobel interviewed me about Mitra (about two years ago)? https://monerochan.news/article/11

...and sadly, decided to keep using Twitter

@waifu @munir Countries in US sphere of influence tend to adopt strict KYC/AML regulations out of the fear of sanctions. I hope you'll find a way to avoid that

@Deus @r000t Even if you put aside various issues with protocol and its governance for a moment, the entire network is still smaller than some Mastodon instances: https://stats.nostr.band.

@waifu @munir Is it possible to buy/sell crypto on the streets without identification?

@r000t

https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/ef61/fep-ef61.md

What do you think? With this extension, handles are still centralized but identities are not. And it is compatible with Mastodon.

@frogzone @nimda How it is supposed to work?
In mitra-web you can search your own statuses by adding the ">" prefix to the search query:

>bloat

@julian Yes, IDs should be unique:

>All Objects in [ActivityStreams] should have unique global identifiers. ActivityPub extends this requirement; all objects distributed by the ActivityPub protocol MUST have unique global identifiers, unless they are intentionally transient
