I am periodically upset that ActivityPub does not mandate a closed json-ld context for all objects. The reason it can accept new context definitions is basically so that useless examples can fit on less documentation space. It sacrifices practical interoperability for the theoretical comfort of developers.

Just opened an issue for a major new task for #Fedify: building an #interoperability smoke test suite.
To ensure Fedify-built servers federate correctly with the wider #fediverse, we're planning to run automated E2E tests in #CI against live instances of Mastodon, Misskey, and more. This is crucial for a framework's reliability.
You can see the full plan and discussion here:

It seems to me that lots of opinions about how to improve the fediverse miss the basic fact of federation. ActivityPub is a protocol (standard?) that allows information to flow freely between vastly different applications and servers. That allows for distributed social media among other things. There is no particular reason why you have to take advantage of that feature. Truth.social, for example, does not.
I think that this becomes obscured because there are a variety of different reasons for wanting your social media use to be based on ActivityPub. Truth.social was, presumably, that it works and is easy and cheap enough to deploy. That is probably quite attractive for less awful people. If I want a social media experience dedicated entirely to discussion of cats, I can probably make it happen at a reasonable cost by using ActivityPub. You might want to use it because it allows interoperability between different applications, so you don't have to have Instagram, Facebook, twitter, substack, etc. You might want it because it is non-commercial. You might want it because it gives you power over moderation.
These are all good reasons, but they do not result in the same outcomes for how the fediverse is run. They couldn't. In fact, there cannot be a how the fediverse is run anymore than a how the internet is run. What that means is that there will not be a fediverse. There will be kolektiva.social, truth.social, mastodon.social, cats.social and so on. The level of interaction that happens between them will be determined by the vision of people running the server.
It doesn't surprise me that some of the smaller instances that exist to provide a heavily moderated social media experience block mastodon.social which wishes to be part of a large, interoperable social media ecosystem or kolektiva.social which wishes to be part of a large, DIY non-commercial (left wing) social media ecosystem. When mastodon.social allows ads, I suspect Kolektiva will block it because the tension between the visions will become apparent. What does surprise me is that some people both want to take advantage of a distributed social media ecosystem whilst expecting uniformity of use.

@pheonix I've used #Mastodon for many years as well as other #ActivityPub projects. I prefer #decentralization, overall appreciate the #linux and #tech posts here... It's #LGBT / #Transgender friendly and most recently having used #Bluesky, i've moved a #music discovery project off there to Mastodon and my linktree works here without users having to be logged in, unlike Bluesky.

@Carlos Ja stimmt, das ist eine Funktion, die offenbarr über die Spezifikaitonen von #ActivityPub hinausgeht. @crossgolf_rebel @chaosrind

Kann man irgendwie mit dem #Activitypub seine Wordpress-Tags (oder/oder Ktegorien) in #Hashtags umwandeln und in den #Posts bei Mastodon anzeigen?

🌀 Misskey 帳戶遷移實際會遷移哪些資料？ / What data is actually migrated during Misskey account migration? / Misskey のアカウント移行ではどのデータが移行されますか？

最近在研究 Misskey 的「帳戶遷移」功能，想更清楚了解它實際會遷移哪些資料。
目前看起來它會轉移「追隨與被追隨」的關係，但我不確定是否也包含：
• 使用者頭像、橫幅與簡介
• 貼文、圖片與附件
• 使用者設定與偏好
另外，如果兩台伺服器之間的聯邦協議（ActivityPub）通訊正常，是否代表遷移時能自動同步所有可用資料？
我想確認 Misskey 的帳戶遷移到底是偏向「社交關係導向」（像 ActivityPub 的 Move 活動），還是能完整搬移內容與媒體的「資料轉移」。
如果有開發者或懂協議的朋友能說明一下，會很感謝 🙏

I’m trying to understand how Misskey account migration actually works.
From what I’ve seen, it seems to transfer followers and following, but I’m not sure if it also includes:
• Profile info (avatar, header, bio)
• Posts, images, attachments
• User settings or preferences
If both instances communicate properly over ActivityPub, does migration automatically sync all available data?
I’d like to know if Misskey’s migration is more like a “social relationship redirection” (similar to ActivityPub’s Move), or a full “data transfer” including posts and media.
Any insights from developers or experienced admins would be appreciated 🙌

最近、Misskey の アカウント移行 機能について調べています。
実際にどのデータが移行されるのか、もう少し詳しく知りたいです。
現時点では、フォロー／フォロワー関係は引き継がれるようですが、
次の項目も含まれるのでしょうか？
• プロフィール情報（アイコン、ヘッダー、自己紹介）
• 投稿・画像・添付ファイル
• ユーザー設定や環境設定
また、サーバー間の ActivityPub 通信が正常な場合、自動でデータ同期が行われるのでしょうか？
Misskey のアカウント移行は ActivityPub の Move のような「ソーシャル関係の移動」なのか、
それともユーザーコンテンツを含む「完全なデータ転送」に近いのか、
開発者や詳しい方の意見をお聞きしたいです 🙏

I blocked mastodon.social, and they blocked me back.
Do not trust mastodon.social.
They know about the scams I reported, but they do nothing. Even worse, they still support some of them — for example, “Gaza Verified.”
We joined the Fediverse to get away from one group controlling everything. But now, because so many people depend on mastodon.social, it is becoming that same kind of gatekeeper.
