Vernünftige #ActivityPub Integration für media.ccc.de wäre doch auch mal was.
Es wäre ziemlich cool wenn es sich im Grunde wie ein #PeerTube verhalten würde, so das man einzelnen Channels (Veranstaltungen) oder der ganzen Plattform folgen kann und einzelne Videos direkt boosten kann.
Von der Architektur her macht es wahrscheinlich keinen Sinn auf #PeerTube zu wechseln. Aber das Interface zum Fediverse zu emulieren wäre cool.
If I follow an account on #peertube from my account here on #mastodon their stuff should eventually show up in my feed here, right? How long should that take? Or is it better to treat peertube as a separate thing? #activitypub #fediverse
Ho un'idea per un modello musicale alternativo che usa la blockchain come notaio digitale per aggirare i guardiani del settore e dare il controllo agli artisti. Ho un'analisi del quadro legale già pronta. Cerco pensatori esperti in dinamiche fediverse e progetti dal basso che abbiano la voglia di studiarla e darmi consigli su come presentarla. Qualcuno ha voglia di discuterne? #ActivityPub #blockchain #opensource #DirittiDigitali

A regular users might write Markdown like this:
"""
# Hello!
How do you do?
"""
Or write HTML like this:
"""
<article>
<h1>Hello!</h1>
<p>How do you do?</p>
</article>
"""

REMEMBER: this is for power-users, not regular users
How would you get ActivityPub / ActivityStreams into HTML using RDFa‽
Like this:
<div vocab="https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#" typeof="Note">
<p property="name">Hello!</p>
<p>How do you do?</p>
</div>
AGAIN, REMEMBER: this is for power-users, not regular users.
Regular users can just write Markdown or HTML and Retejo will figure this out automatically for you

If you are wondering what RDFa is —
You might be more familiar with OpenGraph.
OpenGraph is usually the thing that causes "preview cards" to be showed for links shared on social-media.
OpenGraph is written in RDFa. Which, in practice, is some special HTML elements added to the page.
For example:
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/img/preview.png" />
So what about ActivityPub‽ —

Obviously, beginners are NOT going to do this, but — some power-users may want this level of control.
There are different way this could be done, but — one way might be that power-users could use RDFa to explicitly specify what data from the HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data.
Again, beginners and typical users would NOT do this.
But a power-user might want to.
Here is an example —
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

So, what would be a good user-experience (UX) for power-users be — in a system that automatically creates ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown‽
One thought I had is that power-users could explicitly mark what data from their HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data (if they want to).
I'll explain —

@norbert Spannende Idee. Ich habe mir ja Pixelfed zugelegt. Aber irgendwie läuft das bei mir nicht richtig an. Somit habe ich dann einen Mastodon Account, ein Blog, Pixelfed,… Das wieder ein wenig zu konsolidieren und ins Blog zu bringen wäre vielleicht die bessere Idee. Noch dazu, wo mit #ActivityPub mein Blog eh schon nah am #Fediverse ist.
PS: Feed schon abonniert.

I think one mistake some software does is — they create a good experience for beginners, but have a poor experience for power-users.
And keep in mind that — some beginners become power-users later on.
I think it is important to design for power-users, too, in addition to beginners.

If a typical user is writing in Markdown, and their Markdown file has a level-1 heading right at the beginning, then —
That could go into the ActivityPub "name" field.
And, similar could be done for HTML, too.

But what about power users —

What are "good" ways of automatically creating ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown‽
I think the answer depends on who, for example, is writing HTML, and how they are writing it.
For example, is this a typical user? Is this a power-user? Do they know HTML? And if they do know HTML, how well do they know it? Etc?
I will show you what I mean —
