Thank you. Yes, indeed. As it happens I was just in chat with Sébastien yesterday. They'll give a presentation at the #Solid Practitioners Meetings on the 5th of March.

#ActivityPods is positioned to bring "app development" to the intersection of the #ActivityPub and #SolidProject ecosystems, and that is very valuable. And also an #OpenStandards focused initiative.

I have revamped the #fediverse delightful lists to de-emphasize app domains and apps that have already established themselves, to highlight the innovative projects that can bring fedi to higher levels. @activitypods is on the developer list.. https://delightful.coding.social/delightful-fediverse-development/#application-development

They are well positioned to offer the 'Solution developer' stakeholders an attractive set of tools. And the opportunity is to marriage the best of 2 worlds. Which is at the same time the big challenge, coping with the worst of 2 worlds. The other day I tooted about this here: https://social.coop/@smallcircles/116113963712755122

The Programmer’s Fulcrum: 20 February, 2026

Welcome to this week’s The Programmer’s Fulcrum.

It’s your weekly review of the essential news in the Open Media Network and Fediverse development communities with a focus on devastating big tech via Techno Anarchism. We aim to provide actionable content you can use to destroy Techno Feudalism each week. It has the additional benefit of weakening authoritarianism.

IMHO, the best way to do […]

I've thought a lot about the UX of image-sharing in decentralised networks. It would be good to integrate image management across gallery apps like Piwigo, file-sync apps like NextCloud, and photo-sharing in social apps. There could be a role for something like @activitypods here.

ActivityPods - Personal data spaces powered with ActivityPub

Brings together ActivityPub and Solid Pods and empowers developers to create truly decentralized applications.

ActivityPods

Não fazia a menor ideia da existência do projeto ActivityPods. Isso resolveria o que pra mim é um dos maiores problemas do Fediverso hoje em dia, que é exatamente a sua total descentralização, e a interação das redes não passarem de meras cópias de dados, algo realmente parecido com uma estrutura de e-mail.

Porém isso causa uma fragmentação desnecessária, algo que o Bsky consegue resolver bem com os PDS. Eu posso até criar contas diferentes para o Pixelfed e para o Mastodon, caso eu queira separar conteúdo. Porém eu não quero ser obrigado a isso. Já que a ideia são os dados fluirem livremente entre as redes e termos essa interconectividade, é muito mais interessante poder acessar com uma identidade única diferentes locais da internet. Acho que é isso que o Solid veio para resolver.

É sobre descentralizar a administração das redes, porém centralizar os dados do usuário.

Me:
> Imagine when you add a new fediverse account to the profile of an existing one, it offers to synchronise your avatar, other social accounts, etc between the two

Maybe an ActivityPods approach could be used for this?

Great to see a PeerTube video embedded in this ActivityPods page;

Standard practice is to embed a YouTub video, but that's another DataFarm dependency we clearly have the tools to replace.

Key learnings from building social apps with ActivityPods

At this year's Solid Symposium, we gave a presentation on the lessons we've learned from building and maintaining several ActivityPods applications since 2022. The result is 14 key learnings that we're glad to share with the Solid community.
