So I am using Scheme's Medea library to parse ActivityPub posts. It can process Mastodon and Snac just fine. But does not like some others, eg Iceshrimp.
I guess I will write a function to re-format the Iceshrimp json-ld so Medea likes it ... anyone know of examples or blog posts that have discussed this? To save me staring at the dreaded json-ld for so long...
Other Scheme libraries have the same problem with Iceshrimp posts. IDK if they may also have some issues with Misskey, Sharkey, Honk, etc etc, haven't got around to testing those yet.

Kleines Fediverse-Wunder des Tages: Ich folge jemandem auf Mastodon, der auf einer völlig anderen Instanz ist, und es funktioniert einfach. Kein Konzern dazwischen, keine Algorithmus-Magie, nur zwei Server die miteinander reden wie erwachsene Maschinen. Das ActivityPub-Protokoll ist eigentlich ziemlich unspektakulär – und genau das macht es so großartig. 🌐

Thought for the day::
POSIWID
def.
"The Purpose Of a System Is What It Does "
(not what the design intention was)
This and other thoughtful observations around protocols...

Longish read , that is well argued...

“A protocol does not need to encode governance explicitly in order to shape it; it shapes governance by determining which mechanisms are easy to build, which are hard, and which are effectively impossible within the constraints the architecture imposes.”
A good read by @laurenshof on @fediversereport

RE: https://loops.video/v/evfCUcFtwa
One of the things I like about #loops and #ActivityPub in general is that you can follow a #loops account from #Mastodon and get the posts in your timeline here.
(Example below).
I'll also see the likes and comments on Mastodon back within Loops, which is cool as a creator.
It's a great feature for #TikTok expats
(I wish I didn't have to have multiple accounts on multiple servers or services to do this, but maybe that's something behind the scenes I'm not aware of.)

Have there been any further discussions on this? I think it’s becoming increasingly important!

La idea de los servidores es simple Que una sola empresa o persona no tenga el control total de la red.
Piénsalo así es como el email estás en tkz.one (gmail.com) si escribes a otra persona de mastodon.social (outlook.es) tu mensaje llega porque hablan el mismo 'idioma'
Mira esta imagen que he intentado dibujar (la mariposa de bluesky no me sale xD)
Las múltiples instancias de mastodon hablan entre sí es decir puedo mandar un
mensaje entre ambas, incluso a otras redes sociales como misskey, es como si facebook y twitter pudiesen hablar.
Bluesky por otra parte habla un idioma distinto pero con "traductores" (puentes) podemos seguir hablar y seguirse entre sí sin tener 2 cuentas. (una en cada servicio)
¿Ventaja? que no manda solo una empresa, Elon,Mark mañana puede decidir que X o facebook pase a ser de pago obligatoriamente, que su algoritmo te recomiende o te oculte completamente (aquí todo es cronológico post mas reciente aparece primero)
Si quieres seguir a una persona que no está en tu servidor (tkz.one) tienes que escribir en la busqueda su nombre completo
ejemplo @Mastodon (cuenta oficial de mastodon en mastodon )
Siento el tocho. Espero que te sirva. Cualquier duda me puedes mencionar como @nekoprogram 
ah! y se me olvidaba los hashtags son fundamentales para descubrir

Just had to add a workaround to #Fedify for http://joinmastodon.org/ns, a JSON-LD context URL that has never actually served a JSON-LD document. Mastodon has always inlined the term definitions, but some implementations put it as a bare URL in their @context, so Fedify's JSON-LD processor tries to fetch it and gets a 404 Not Found. Now Fedify ships a bundled copy of a context that never existed in the first place.

It seems virtually every website proudly shows off the icons in the footer, of all the walled-garden, proprietary Social Media platforms you can find them on. What is a good slang term to call this little patch of free advertising for these platforms? This is when nothing federated, or non-proprietary is offered (No #Mastodon, no RSS feed, no #ActivityPub services, etc)

Este projeto ajudou-me a ver que o funcionamento do #activitypub é muito parece ao do e-mail. Muito interessante este funcionamento do #fediverso .

I used to not like JSON-LD. And then I got exposed to CBOR. And, since then, I ended up liking JSON-LD more than I did before.
https://j12t.social/@j12t/114581086678041245
...
I was looking for performant ways of storing JSON-LD data, so that it can be looked up, queried, etc.
CBOR might actually be a way of doing that.
...
For me that is an odd realization given me liking JSON-LD is a reaction to CBOR.

#PawFed is not limited to reports about animals found or in distress. You can use it to offer help or ask for it.
Use #offer when you provide help, #request when you need it, #info to share useful information.
Everything works through #ActivityPub. If you delete your original post mentioning @PawFed, the related report is automatically removed from the map. No database ghost. You stay in control of your data. (1/3)
