The title is misleading. It should be: why the #activitypub protocol and the #fediverse matter. I am replying to this message, but I am not on #Mastodon.

Hey #ActivityPub friends. Are there any new ActivityPub / Mastodon features I should add to #ActivityBot?
It's a small bot-only ActivityPub server in a single PHP file.
https://gitlab.com/edent/activity-bot/
It can be followed, post images, allow quote posts, etc.
Is there anything else you would like a bot-server to be able to do?

Is there a #python module for #activitypub #c2s I can use for a silly idea? My search engine foo seems to suggest rather No, but maybe you know one 😉

I’ve quite enjoyed making my photos website (https://photos.qassim.uk) an activitypub actor, @photos@qassim.uk. ActivityPub has its critics, but overall, this just feels like how the web SHOULD be. #photography #activitypub #mastodon

As you know I am proponent to emphasize the social aspects more, to drive healthy evolution of the #SocialWeb.
The app-centric #fediverse is a pure technosphere, where a tech-first approach deals with getting app features to the next app, and the #ActivityPub protocol matures via post-facto 'follow-the-leader' #interoperability. What happens in the sociosphere between people using the tech is de-facto of secondary concern, and apps are tweaked to try to deal with externalities. The resulting social landscape has become one of neighboring app kingdoms with guarded borders separating them. Everyone speaks microblog to each other, albeit with thick accents, hard to understand. The fediverse is social *because* of the people, and despite of the tech, that still severely restrains them.
It would be nice if the track name not just indicated a technology name. E.g. https://coding.social uses:
- Fediverse, a peopleverse
- #ReimagineSocial
- #SocialNetworkingReimagined

I'm thinking of proposing a #fediverse/social web community track at @COSCUP 2026 (Aug 8–9, Taipei)—think FOSDEM's Social Web devroom, but in East Asia. Before I submit the CFP, I'd love to get a sense of what to call it. What do you think?
(Boosts appreciated!)

I’ve just created a PR to allow arbitrary Unicode usernames in #flohmarkt, in a safe fashion: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/pulls/921
given https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/8417 I assume this might make @Edent happy :)

Another test article for federation - this time with content
This is a test 3 article to make sure that the #activitypub integration works in #madblog.
Let's see if @blacklight@mastodon.online gets mentioned!
And let's add some math:
And a Mermaid graph - because why not:
And a code block:
print("Hello, world!")
And a big shoutout to @fabio@manganiello.eu too!
