Let's make social media free, federated and fun! Fediverse.Party is your guide into the world of decentralized, autonomous networks running on free open software on a myriad of servers across the world. No ads and no algorithms. Join Fediverse and become part of the new interconnected Web!

While adding @endurain to the ActivityPub watchlist for fediverse.party, I noticed that @forgejo has added code enabling me to add a fediverse address to a wiki page on @Codeberg, and have it automatically become a link to the profile for that address. Great stuff!

#HatTip to whoever had that idea and coded it, and also to @smallcircles for tipping me off about Endurain, and supplying the info about on the Delightful list that I was able to draw from for our listing.

> Is there a website that shows federated projects that people are building?

There's a few. I'll leave other maintainers to pitch their own, but I'm involved with;

https://fediverse.party/en/miscellaneous/

... which is based on data gathering on this watchlist;

https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediparty/wiki/ActivityPub-server-watchlist

FYI they both need some major updates, but I was recently shouldertapped to take over as Lead Goose, and we're working on it!

GNU MediaGoblin was founded by @cwebber. Inspired by GNU social's revival of the StatusNet project abandoned by Identi.ca, they developed a vision of enabling federation features between MediaGoblin services, and between those and services running GNU social, GNU FM, etc. To this end, along with Jessica Tallon (@tsyesika), they got involved with the AP standardisation process, which consumed a lot of their time and organising energy.

Is there anyone out there with a passion for surveying and making lists of themed fediverse services? Our list is showing it's age, and could really use a dedicated curator to keep it up-to-date, with support from our team;

https://fediverse.party/en/portal/servers/

We aim to list smaller services open to new members, with either a geographical or topic focus. The criteria we use for the services we list can be found here;

2 more giant leaps for geek, 2 more small steps for fediverse.party. Tonight, I closed a merge request that had been superseded, and merged another one. The feeling of raw power I get when I hit the button to merge, and see the changes hit the site, makes me feel like a wizard! Or maybe a sourcerer ; )

The change I merged tonight reflects @gotosocial's moving their app development from GritGub to CodeBerg. If they can ...

2 giants leaps for this geek, 2 small steps forward for fediverse.party;

I finishing merging apps from @hazelnoot's list into the main AP server watchlist, complete with links. Still a lot to do there, but that's 1 more milestone passed.

More exciting, I finally managed to make another change to the site! The second one I've successful done since becoming Lead Goose. I removed Guppe and immers.space, which were abandoned by the maintainers, with no successors for now.

Carved about some time for fediverse.party work tonight. To get started, I commented on some PRs and issue discussions, to make sure both ongoing and drive-by contributors understand the current state of play.

As I said in my last post asking Ben about Emissary's MondoDB dependency, I've started rebuilding the AP server software watchlist on our wiki;

https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediparty/wiki/ActivityPub-server-watchlist

... in preparation for a series of updates to bring the site itself up-to-date.

:milky_way: A quick look into Fediverse networks -

Codeberg.org

There have been many experiments with adding simple ActivityPub support to static blogs, enabling authors to publish their blog into the fediverse to be followed and get commented on. Some of these experimenters have documented what they did, and I've started a list of examples here;

I chucked this together in a hurry, so please prod me about any mistakes, or any additions that could be made to the list.

Fediverse.party is looking for a social blogging platform to highlight. I just posted some musing on possible selection criteria and the pros and cons of various candidates;

Feedback welcome. Here or there, but if you want your comments to be part of the permanent record of our deliberations on this, better to comment on the issue itself (when @forgefed is ready for primetime you won't have to choose).

No federated blogging app included on the front page

Discussion on this issue segued away from the original discussion about federated web forums: Great to finally see Funkwhale appear on the front page site. Are any of the Reddit-a-likes successfully federating over AP and mature enough to add there too? The layout looks better with an even numbe...
