Darius KazemiFor #ActivityPub implementors, here's a nice set of cheat sheets on different object types available to you via ActivityStreams and ActivityVocabulary. Mostly good as a reminder of the breadth of what is specified when you're thinking through high level federation design

Visual guide to ActivityPub types
@darius speaking of the breadth of types, I've been meaning to ask you: does Hometown's broader support for object types include Image/Video?
I can't get an answer from Mastodon on whether they'd accept a PR to support them as inline media instead of just url text
Federated Create->Image activities do not render the image inline · Issue #19357 · mastodon/mastodon
Steps to reproduce the problem I would like to see the image content of an Image ActivityPub object render in my Mastodon timeline. I see in the Mastodon documentation that Image type payloads are ...
@datatitian @activitypub I would happily accept a PR to hometown on this, it's 100% aligned with what I'm trying to do

Not sure if anyone looked into what redaktor did.
We have all types in https://github.com/redaktor/widgets-preview
Place with maps, nice Events etc. Currently fulltime work and cofounded soon.
An overview: https://digitalcourage.social/@sl007/109743699298466034
If you need something just let me know.
What I am still looking for is people coding together for ActivityPub.
Am I missing something?
I mean, in journalism anything is teamwork, we were first reporters in
NWFP Gun factories, it needed a good team (also our team ;).

How about doing some infrastructure?
Since christmas holidays I did an Atlas in ActivityPub with 400.000 well known places.
It maps all the Open Data (multilanguage) plus wikidata, OSM and geonames ids.
Q2, the planet Earth is a huge `Collection` …
It was partly completed by humans with help of a console tool (stupid me).
Anyway, tons of knowledge, articles (e.g. wikivoyage) and commons.
In general, here it drove a rather crazy way.
Never studied “coding” but the opposite, pressing a button.
I hated different languages, wanted just a photo.
Then we started with a generic server. My problem is that I tried my best to learn
at least 1 language sufficiently which is TypeScript / Javascript.

Attached: 4 images [DE] Danke an die #Tagesthemen für die #Pakistan Meinung von Oliver Mayer und die Vertiefung der Situation … (nicht @[email protected] aber der HR Oliver Mayer ist noch nicht hier) Poste unsere Pakistan Geschichten aus dem Archiv (Texte von Carsten Stormer). Morgen mehr… --- Wilkommen in Gun City. In einem pakistanischen Dorf werden Waffen aller Art kopiert. Darra Adam Khel liegt in der Grenzregion zu Afghanistan - der sogenannten Tribal Area der Paschtunen in der NWFP Region (2007). [EN] Posting some archive stories from Pakistan … Welcome to Gun City. Weapons of all kinds are copied in a Pakistani village. Darra Adam Khel is located in the border region to Afghanistan - the so-called Tribal Area of the Pashtuns in the NWFP region (2007).
I learned to hate node.js and am switching to deno.
So, also the posted widgets are now rather a prototype regarding the UI cause I want to
avoid if possible client side JS and a vdom.
Anyway, also Chris Moser and others are doing stuff towards a generic server and infrastructure for everyone, see e.g. https://github.com/yuforium/
My belief is really we should
• think about a generic reference implementation for a server and things which could extend it.
• have a Social CG meeting about enhancing C2S (Andreas Kuckartz is currently caring)
• and I'd like to talk about (Evan initial) idea ActivityHandler, see

Bob Mottram :debian:@sl007 @datatitian @darius C2S should define a sync mechanism, so that there could be offline-first clients.

Yep, Johannes did also write to the mailing list:
