everything here is powered by ActivityPub, no server-specific APIs

you can also view the underlying ActivityPub object as JSON...

]]>https://bb.devnull.land/post/https://podcastindex.social/users/js/statuses/113012040260368301https://bb.devnull.land/post/https://podcastindex.social/users/js/statuses/113012040260368301Fri, 23 Aug 2024 15:28:03 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to 👀 BrowserPub: A browser for exploring #ActivityPub and the ⁂fediverse on Fri, 23 Aug 2024 15:21:12 GMT]]>The idea here is to make it a bit easier to see how well the various players in the fediverse support the C2S side of the ActivityPub spec.

You can punch in any ActivityPub discoverable web url or fediverse handle, and BrowserPub will discover and display the underlying AP:

e.g.

social profiles: https://browser.pub/https://mastodon.social/@mastodon

or posts:
https://browser.pub/https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/113005517546136592

or fediverse handles:
https://browser.pub/@Gargron@mastodon.social

or even usernames (defaults to mastodon.social for now):
https://browser.pub/Gargron
