Mastodon doesn’t have a “watch post” feature, but imagine another #ActivityPub server such as #wordpress were to implement it…

Which interaction would you prefer / make most sense to trigger a watch?

@emacsen

(just you emacsen)

FYI, I also didn't see bob's post.

@emacsen @humanetech @bob @bhaugen @cj

A wiki would be better if we're trying to curate information. @emacsen Can you link your desired location to build such a resource?

@humanetech @emacsen @bhaugen @bob @cj

To emacsen's original post, I liked reading some of the Federation.md docs that individual projects had put together last year.

https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/specifications-and-implementation-docs/2091 links to some implementation specific docs and the category that's in is meant to be a place to discuss Fedi standards in general.

I've found it's most helpful for me at least to be addressing a problem with these efforts. So far it's been lack of a functioning standards process, but perhaps there are other issues you are running into. If so, please share.

Also, consider this a motion to have a meeting over jitsi just to talk about problems with standards. If I get a second, I'll coordinate something in the next week or two.

c4.social was just updated to the first known deployment of Ecko, Magic Stone's newly named fork of #Mastodon. Registration is open if you want to test it out.

In the coming weeks we'll be working through issues in the tracker including making it work on Yunohost!

Anyone want to help define or code an API for Mastodon to talk to a web-of-trust-based moderation server? https://github.com/weex/wot-server/issues/10
Problem: We haven't defined an API for Mastodon to use · Issue #10 · weex/wot-server

A basic API would be one that allows storing trust ratings (Alice has a trust value of 100.0 for Bob) and retrieving a calculated trust score (Should Alice trust Charlie?). Requests should be signe...

In the interest of furthering standards discussion and development on the Fediverse, I'm proposing a change to SocialHub.

Move FEP under a new Standards category

I suggest we create a new Standards category on this forum and move Fediverse Enhancement Proposals under it. My reasoning stems from the FEP process’s stated goal: The goal of a FEP is to improve interoperability and well-being of diverse services, applications and communities that form the Fediverse. While the Fediverse and ActivityPub are often associated, it’s good to think of them independently if interoperability and well-being are primary. AP could be used outside of the Fediverse bu...

Creating a new pod for the diaspora* fork and I'm not sure what to call it. Any ideas? Maybe a domain name you were saving for who knows when?
