Annoyingly, it seems like the ActivityPub Fuzzer wants to run over HTTPS, and there's no obvious way to persuade it to run on, for example, localhost, port 3000 with plain old HTTP. The supported use case seems to be fuzzer on public URL ↔︎ server on public URL, which is more trouble than it's worth, right now.
How to Install #Pixelfed on #Ubuntu VPS (8 Step Quick-Start Guide)
This article provides a guide for how to install Pixelfed on Ubuntu VPS.
What is Pixelfed?
PixelFed is a decentralized, open-source photo-sharing platform similar to Instagram but built on the #Fediverse (federated social networks using the #ActivityPub protocol). It allows users to host their own instances and interact with users across ...

I’m setting up the ActivityPub Fuzzer. What’s not clear to me is whether or not this thing can run over localhost on two different ports or whether a proxy is required.
Es wäre etwas anderes, wenn ich keine Beweise hätte. Wenn ich nur eine zufällige Person wäre, die wilde Behauptungen ohne jegliche Dokumentation aufstellt, wäre das natürlich Unsinn.
Aber ich habe Beweise. Ich habe das aus erster Hand gesehen und sogar das Risiko auf mich genommen, Dinge von der Arbeit zu teilen, um es zu untermauern.
Dieser Ort soll doch besser sein als Blue Sky, Twitter, Facebook und Reddit – richtig?
Wenn dem so ist, warum werden dann Betrüger geschützt und behandelt, als gehörten sie zu einer besonders geschützten Personengruppe?

It would be one thing if I had no proof. If I were just a random making wild claims without any documentation, of course, that would be nonsense.
But I have proof. I have seen this first hand and even took the risk of sharing things from work to back up.
This place is supposed to be better than Blue Sky, Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit --- Right?
If so, why embrace and protect scammers as if they were a protected class of people?

Unfortunately, the administrator at social.tchncs.de is acting like a coward.
Pointing out a confirmed scammer is not racism, sexism, or any kind of discrimination.
What is happening in Gaza is horrific. I have never doubted this. What Israel has done to these innocent people is a crime against humanity.
But a scam that hides itself as support is also wrong. That, too, is an injustice.
I need a platform that does not give weight to false reports. Especially when there is clear evidence — photos and videos — that a scam exists, it should be acknowledged and addressed.
If Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter can recognize such scams with proof, surely the Fediverse can do the same.

Another great topic by @fedihost regarding #algorithms ... not the bad kind;) That could make the #fediverse an easier transition to newcomers and established users alike.

#askFedi Does anybody know if there is an #ActivityPub software that *produces* multilingual objects leveraging the contentMap feature?
Summer/Autumn 2025: Little coding, but lots of socializing and planning
At the first October weekend I (@linos) was attending the Berlin FediDay 2025. It was a meetup of the Berlin and German community, developers of Fediverse applications, and representatives of German speaking media institutions. It was great to see old friends again and meet some online contacts for the first time. We were discussing the future and the role of the Fediverse, which was super motivating. #FediDay
Two weeks later, I travelled to Sofia, Bulgaria, to attend this year’s OpenFest, give a talk and lead a workshop on how the Fediverse can help announce and discover events. Unfortunately, the talk didn’t attract much attention, as LLMs are currently drawing more of an audience. But the discussions with those in attendance were very interesting. The workshop was mainly about trying out #Gancio, #WordPress and #Mastodon and learning about the possibilities for local communities by trying out the applications themselves. I simply provided real test instances, created a list of tasks, including minor pitfalls, and, of course, answered all the questions that came up – and there were quite a few! And a big thank you to the crew and the organizing team, who were so friendly and simply wonderful throughout. #OpenFest
Yesterday, I had an awesome online meeting with the incredibly cool folks behind LAUTI, a free and open-source software for hosting small event calendars. #LAUTI is aimed at small and medium-sized communities and has a big focus on social, cultural and activist stuff. The instance for the Stuttgart area, run by the collective that develops it (@klasse_methode@chaos.social), can be found at https://einftopf.info. The developers are in the process of exploring the potential of #ActivityPub and the #Fediverse. I’m very excited and think this could be really great! In case you’ve been wondering: I see LAUTI kind of in between #Mobilizon and #Gancio. In my opinion, it would not be a competitor to them, but it could be a great addition to the Fediverse by filling this gap.
I will be at the #SFSCON in Bolzano, Italy, in two weeks. There will be a whole afternoon focusing on the Fediverse! So in case you’re there you’re invited to join my short talk about Interoperability of Events in the Fediverse: status quo and vision. Or you’re welcome any time to say hello and let’s have a chat.
After that, it’s time to sit down and get back to programming. But it’s very important to me to continually evaluate and understand what the priorities are, and to remind myself why it’s so important that we all continue our work in this area.

If anyone read these screenshots, you've read more than I have. They mostly just seem to repeat themselves, and I lost interest a long time ago.
But I do not mind sharing them as a warning --- Do not trust Sharkey.
Do not give them money.
Do not share any information, including your e-mail.
