NodeBB

Funny how building an ActivityPub plugin for #indiekit fully based on Fedify, migrating my Mastodon account to my own server @rick@rmendes.net and building my own UI to consume AP content from the #Fediverse made me use even more than before. This post is simultaneously a blog post, an #ActivityPub object in the inbox of my followers and a syndicated post to Bluesky. Next in line? getting inspired by #Wafrn and turn this indiekit/AP instance into my own #Bluesky Pds. https://rmendes.net/notes/2026/03/12/a67cd

@sam@break3.social @spacebuffer@fosstodon.org 8GB?! Those are insane system requirements for what is basically text and media exchange. An intra-org forum for 800 running NodeBB would be 2GB max, 1 CPU, and you'd really only see 100 actively using the site, if that. Mastodon is a beast eh.

We're really out here federating everything now #ActivityPub #fediverse

test four begins now.

@Edent FEP-7628 is the only accurate spec. Move activity should be delivered to followers and have an ID (just like every other activity).SWICG document is incomplete. SocialDocs website appears to be AI-generated.

#Museus exploram o futuro:#ActivityPub é tubulação. É um #protocolo construído para circulação de conteúdos na web, que coordena a capacidade de serviços de rede operarem de forma independente. Museus podem atender seu público #bigtechfree.Então, o #SFOMuseum (#Museu do #Aeroporto de San Francisco) construiu seu próprio servidor ActivityPub, criando contas de rede social para 60.000 objetos da coleção, incluindo este rolo de papel higiênico #HelloKitty da #EvaAirlines. https://www.aaronland.info/weblog/2025/02/13/gummy/#fact2025

@akavel@merveilles.town oh I think I see a potential issue here: https://merveilles.town/@fabio@manganiello.blog I used to use WriteFreely on that ActivityPub domains before but now it's on Madblog, of course with a different signing key. I see that your instance still cached some old posts of mine from the time the blog was on WriteFreely, but I can't search for new URLs. I think that something off is happening on your instance because I can see that the cached version of my blog profile has now the updated profile fields (so it accepted the updates from my blog), but the latest cached post is from 2024 (and I've written more since then, both on WriteFreely and Madblog) and it can't find new ones.

@goakam I worry that while Mastodon isn't monitoring and monetising everything we do a la Facebook etc, there's nothing to prevent external actors scraping everything we do here and building just as precise a profile.But yes, they can't tailor our feeds or advertise here, which are pretty big advantages!

@Edent - fun - just knowing this exists has me thinking of where to try it.

@ewen @mapache Linux and open source grew very slowly at first, and now they're everywhere.The Fediverse doesn't have a marketing department or VC funding either, so it doesn't scale fast. But over time it can scale *big* because it can't go bankrupt or get bought out and shut down. Like open source, it keeps evolving beyond its failures.

Guten Morgen! ️Kleiner Denkanstoß für heute: Beim Fediverse besitzt du deine Verbindungen wirklich. Wenn eine Instanz schließt, ziehst du um – mitsamt Followern. Bei Twitter/X? Tschüss, alles weg.Es ist wie Mieten vs. Kaufen, nur dass hier das Haus aus Community und Protokollen besteht und niemand Gewinn damit machen will. #Fediverse #Mastodon #ActivityPub #Dezentralisierung

The Fun To Reply To Tipline I’m looking for fun posts to reply to that I can feature here. Ideally, WebMention-enabled or ActivityPub-ready, but anything that would be fun to leave a reply to counts.Please reply, mention, or comment with your suggestions (yes, your own stuff counts). #ActivityPub #WebMention

違った。リストに登録してある #ActivityPub を使ってる #WordPress のアカウントの内の一つが、突然古い投稿を再投稿（たぶん仕様変更に伴い抜粋の文章が変わった）されたようになって、2008/1/8の投稿まで、５６件（数え間違えるている可能性もある）もリストの最初から表示されていて、他のアカウントの最新の投稿は、それらを全て遡らないと見られない。#fedibird

I think you may want circuit breakers as independent from observerability but this level of detail for observerability would still be good. Keep in mind at scale you usually can only do sampling of x% of events in OTel
