FediForum hot take:
@dmitri@social.coop: "the key to a successful ActivityPub C2S implementation is a headless AP server"
NodeBB can technically be run headless (although we have our own API)... one wonders...
Protocol Wars - The Fediverse Explained!
“In this episode, we dive deep into the origins of two of the leading social networks and the protocols they run on - Threads/ActivityPub and Bluesky/AT protocol. If you've been wondering what the heck the Fediverse is, this episode is for you!”

Hey #fediverse hackers!
Inspired by @Edent I've installed the #ActivityPub for my #Wordpress blog https://idiolect.org.uk/notes/
It seems to be serving the right kind of thing (??) https://www.idiolect.org.uk/notes/wp-json/activitypub/1.0/webfinger?resource=acct:notes@idiolect.org.uk
But if I search for my username (as reported by settings) @notes@idiolect.org.uk I can't see anything.
Any clues as to what I should do next?

Reckon I might try rolling my own photo blog — bonus points for hitting up @simon to teach me how to add #activitypub support
Por que diabos ainda não há servidores brasileiros no https://joinmastodon.org/servers? Há dois anos, quando o Twitter foi comprado pelo seu atual proprietário, achei muito estranho, principalmente depois de ver tantos servidores Mastodon administrados por comunidades brasileiras. E mesmo agora que tivemos o X bloqueado?
Já existe essa fase confusa de escolher um servidor, mas por que os brasileiros são excluídos? Falta de perspectiva além do norte global? Falta de articulação para ter instâncias brasileiras nessa porra de lista?
Estamos literalmente dando um tiro no próprio pé.

Why on earth are there still no Brazilian servers on https://joinmastodon.org/servers? Two years ago, when Twitter was bought by its current owner, I found it very strange, especially after seeing so many Mastodon servers run by Brazilian communities. And even now that we've had X blocked?
There's already this confusing stage of choosing a server, but why are Brazilians excluded? Lack of perspective beyond the global north? Lack of articulation to have Brazilian instances on this fucking list?
We're literally shooting ourselves in the foot.

I remember when there was the first big wave coming from Twitter, around 2 years ago, there were some discussions about Flickr and Tumblr using the Activity Pub protocol. Did this idea die? If so, does anyone know why?

Is WordPress still the best alternative to blogging into the Fediverse, which also allows comments with activity pub compatible profiles?
I liked Writefreely, but there's no possibility of comments. And Ghost seems promising, but it's still in the development phase. I'd like just some clean interface, and that I can install on a little server.
Maybe folks in the #FediForum discussed other possibilities?

Have you ever wondered why #ActivityPub/AS2 has two media types? Here's a historical discussion about the tradeoffs between activity+json and ld+json. Does anybody know why they decided to use *both* media types?
