Gibt es denn keinen Milliardär, der cool ist und bspw die europäische Variante von X oder Insta supporten will?
Ich bin mir sicher, ein auf #Activitypub bauendes Medien- und Social Network wäre in Nullkommanix auf 100. Es gibt so viele, die wollen und der Rest folgt sowieso, wenn der Hype Cycle bei ihnen vorbei fährt. FOMO wirkt.
Dafür bräuchte es Kapital ohne Grossmannssucht. Gibt's das überhaupt?

Looks like there is a new kid on the #opensocial block: https://holos.social
You can find them on #Mastodon & # Nostr: @HolosSocial
From what I understand it's #ActivityPub with features of Nostr: profiles are only distributed by relays, not hosted on the servers themselves.

Voted "No, but.." against backdrop of #ActivityPub API task force, where issue tracker has an issue on rate limits.
From perspective of "avoiding misconceptions" I was wondering about a range of issues that have been created, and how they relate to Protocol versus Solution design. See also: https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-api/issues/63
I think it may be valuable to define different stakeholder roles, to track people's needs. For #Protosocial thus far I discern in order of importance:
1. Solution developer
2. Protosocial implementer
3. Protocol designer
When asking the question "Should rate limits be part of the protocol?", starting point for design is a firm No.
Solution devs should not be worried about them. Need for rate limits depends on requirements of individual Protosocial impls, and what their goals are.
Protocol-level there's actor introspection. There are no "instances" but Application actors that host Services, including system services, that may expose Rate Limit as metadata.
Today I launched a game called #FrasesGame @frases, which consists of guessing daily sentences (like Wordle). It supports #ActivityPub agents for communication. Like @ladeldiacl, these sentences are
region-specific. However, I created different actors for #Chile, #Argentina, #CostaRica, #Deutschland #Germany, #Danmark #Denmark, and #English. The game is open to try!

#ActivityPub developers only: do you implement rate limit support in your HTTP client implementation?
i'm ewan — developer, writer, occasional poet. i build open-source ATProto tooling,
self-host most of my own infrastructure, and take commissions for things i'm actually
good at.
if any of that is useful or interesting to you, ko-fi.com/ewancroft
is where commissions live:
everything's CC BY-SA 4.0. no NDAs, no nonsense.
tips are also welcome if you've got use out of anything i've made or written.
either way, cheers.
Meet Fedibook!
The idea came from thinking about what it actually takes to get regular users onto the fediverse. Mastodon is great (i love it), but the follow-based model feels unfamiliar to some. Friends and Groups though — that's something everyone already understands.
So Fedibook is a fediverse platform built around exactly that, using ActivityPub. Think federated address book meets social network, with the kind of social graph people are already used to.
Current status:
- Friend requests across servers working
- News feed working, with visibility levels: public, friends-only, or local server only
Hoping to open up for early testing and feedback soon. Open source of course.

C'est quand même trop cool de pouvoir poster sur Lemmy depuis Mastodon juste en mentionnant l'identifiant fediverse du groupe sur lequel on veut poster.
