So when is the ActivityPub skin coming to Fortnite?
I wonder if you could use/abuse Mastodon polls (FEP-9967) to distribute posts that provide near-real-time status updates (I'm thinking about severe weather alerts but I'm sure there are other use cases)?
Create a poll with an expiry far in the future and a token set of options (ideally just one—"Do you opt in?"—but poll implementations seem to require at least two).
Nothing seems to prevent the content of a poll from changing—and this is the key insight. The FEP says, "The type of a poll (single choice / multiple choices) and its options might be changed at any time. In that case the author of the poll MUST reset the vote counts." So broadcast updates via the content.
It would be a lightweight way to follow a single item without following the actor, built on top of implementations that already exist.
As for me, I do miss old YouTube #gaming content too.
I wish #video selfhosting was easier and cheaper, and that software like #PeerTube had vastly better social features. The biggest issue PeerTube has is content discovery. Nobody knows where to find consistent high-quality content, and trash and spam is everywhere you look. That's why nobody spends time browsing on the platform, which in turn disincentivises high-quality content creation.
A video platform that rightfully refuses to implement content recommendation algorithms must rely on word of mouth for people to find and follow good content, which requires community building between content creators and the audience.
If I published a video tomorrow, a good chunk of y'all would possibly watch it. That's only possible because you followed me, because you know of me, because we regularly interact. This effect needs to be strengthenedn
PeerTube has nearly zero social features, though. No text posts, no timelines, no polls, no channel discussion/fan forums, nothing. Right now you need to communicate with your viewers off-site, with a completely different #Fedi account, despite PeerTube being #ActivityPub compatible! That's offputting and cumbersome.
AFAICT #ATproto thinks of the PDS like a website. They are decentralized like the web cause lots of fully independent PDSs exist like lots of independent websites. Having very few relays or app views is fine like it's ok that other things on the web are more centralized. DNS, search engines, email etc.
Yea no.
Social media is not about content but connections. What gets shown and can be boosted. The ability to go viral. Control over that must be decentralized.

Matt Yglesias drove on US-Rep Sean Casten’s lane and Casten just flattened him like a steamroller with this thread.
which brings me to the issue of #USA politicians still using the nazi bar and it’s crypto powered romper room:
if they can’t be arsed about #tech #sovereignty, they shouldn’t be legislating it.
2026 is a #USACongress election year. start making noise now about their absence in the #fediverse. they should have their own #ActivityPub powered sites with #Lemmy or #Mastodon
Das #Bloggen geht dank #ActivityPub in eine neue Ära. Eigentlich will ich da schon ein Teil davon sein und bin eigentlich auch darauf eingestellt. Aber dann hat man doch Hemmungen, das Alles vollständig umzusetzen
ActivityPub: Ans Fediverse abgeben lernen?
Der eigene Blog kann mehr, wenn man ihn loslässt. Ist das wirklich so? Ist das Protokoll namens ActivityPub echt so stark, wie es klingt? Ihr werdet lachen, aber es ist mal wieder die Zeit, dass man darüber diskutiert, wie sehr man den eigenen Blog ins Fediverse wandern lässt. Und ich bin dabei völlig ehrlich: Ich tue mich extrem schwer damit. Aber es kann gut sein, dass das der beste Weg ist, die Bloggerszene überleben zu lassen: Lass los. Und ich denke mir: Na, wenn das mal gut geht.
