Unless the person replying on Mastodon removes it of course (to save themselves some characters and because they don’t recognise it).

There doesn’t seem any functional difference between your comment (which implicitly Mentions the community), and the original post on thecanadian.social (which explicitly Mentions it). Screenies from activitypub.academy show that replies to both include both Mentions pre-filled.

thecanadian.social/@mike/116234121499688717 didn’t remove the Mention, and so the comment made it to Lemmy. mstdn.ca/@cass_m/116234270845317774 did remove the Mention, and so it didn’t.

Specifically for Lemmy btw, the reply at mstdn.ca/@cass_m/116234270845317774 demonstrates another problem - that instance requires a signed GET request for its actors, which hasn’t been fully implemented AFAIK.

Just come across this myself.

Long-running fediverse instances will likely have old copies of established aussie.zone actors, but federation will be broke for newer instances and/or newer actors.

Verifiable by doing something like:

WORKS: curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://reddthat.com/u/lodion DOESN'T WORK: curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://aussie.zone/u/lodion

I chose reddthat.com because it seems like it has similar protection, but allows for AP requests. (other instances use non-CF solutions, but I imagine they’ve had to make similar tweaks).

It’s been a couple of days, so it might be worth some pings:

You can get a rough idea of how big each video is via an activitypub query for each video. For example:

curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://peertube.wtf/w/mhghLtY5dkLguNq5oFB2Ut | jq .

Buried in there is a url entry, and buried in some of those is a tag entry and buried in some of those are details for the size of the video and audio for each upload.

Peertube’s video channels have an outbox (similar to how Lemmy’s communities do, but not limited to 50 entries), so you can step through that to find the relevant info for everything in your channel.

Doing that for your channel, I got:

Shitpost #2 video: 482 x 480: 2.27 MB audio: 0.3 MB Shitpost #1 video: 480 x 480: 8.69 MB audio: 0.94 MB Will this replace the internet? video: 1080 x 1920: 19.26 MB video: 720 x 1280: 11.9 MB video: 360 x 640: 5.23 MB audio: 16.75 MB Cat video: 1920 x 1080: 7.77 MB video: 1280 x 720: 2.14 MB video: 640 x 360: 0.41 MB audio: 0.23 MB

If you assume that the size of the audio is ignored, and that lower resolutions are transcoded as requested, and add the sizes for the highest resolutions together, you get 2.27 + 8.69 + 19.26 + 7.77 = 37.99 (which is the 38 MB visible in your screenshot).

The information is available, but it’s a pain in the arse to get, so it’s probably annoying for PeerTube themselves to show (a brief look suggests that the API response doesn’t provide it, so there’s nothing for the web frontend to display). It’s also possible that they may drop the higher resolutions for videos with low engagement, so the size of each upload isn’t static, which adds an extra complication.

Not really.

Gup.pe groups were genuine ActivityPub Groups, like Lemmy communities, whereas these ‘FediGroup’ things are just Mastodon bots. They’re a ‘Service’, aka the automated version of a ‘Person’, so they’re no use to anyone on platforms (like Lemmy) that can only follow Groups.

The most similar recent thing to gup.pe is ovo.st

Compare:

curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://lemmy.world/c/fediverse | jq -r .type => Group curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://ovo.st/club/askfedi | jq -r .type => Group with curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' https://fedigroups.social/@audiofiction | jq -r .type => Service

Dunno if you’re fussed about this sort of stuff, but this meme was already posted very recently: crazypeople.online/post/14691687 (sidenote: lemmy’s default UI doesn’t do inline displays of avif files, it seems)

With the default UI for lemmy.world, it says “Deleted by creator” next to name of the author for this batch of comics, and quite a few others. They get posted in groups, presumably to camouflage that at least one of them is solely for purpose of shit-stirring. I don’t know their motivations otherwise.

If you see a comic here, it’s best to click on the author’s name first, and save yourself some effect if the page is blank or it says something to the effect of “Joined a few minutes ago”.

Not the first time that bug’s reared its head either.

Example from here:

'nsfw': post.nsfw if post.nsfw is not None else False

A meme about PieFed half-arsing database migrations might not be funny, but would at least be valid, and less wearisome than OP’s post.

I’ve contributed code to PieFed in the past, but nothing recently. If someone comes across something I’ve written and finds it amateurish, then that’s a reasonable assessment. There’s no need for you to delete your comment, as I’m not a fan of features over fixes approach either.

The “People’s Front of Judea” remark relates to a Monty Python sketch from the The Life Of Brian (youtube link) - it’s a swipe at leftist infighting (swap out “The only people we hate more than the Romans is the Judean’s People’s Front” with “The only site we hate more than Reddit is PieFed” I suppose).
