is it with a leading @? I thought I read that it is simply the WebFinger address without acct: or leading @!?!

7. Allow local comments and comments from the Fediverse, but don't mix them up.
8. Allow replies only for selected posts.
9. Follow the whole blog, selected autors or a mixture of all of them.
10. ...
...but it's still fun ...or perhaps precisely because of this 🙂

it's often so complex to add #ActivityPub to an already existing platform (for example #WordPress ) and it gets even more complex if it is not built for social media 😱
For example
1. Deleting Users from the Fediverse, that still exist on the blog.
2. Delete the whole blog from the fediverse, but take temporary plugin deactivations/deletions into account.
3. Caching by third party plugins.
4. Shared hosting.
5. Posts and Comments in different DB tables
6. Publish only a subset of posts

I started some lists on the GitHub wiki, to document hosting and caching that do work or do not work with #ActivityPub for #WordPress.
Feel free to update the lists: https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/wiki
I would love to use that as reference for some new Site-Health checks.

@npub1vg8…rrql thanks a lot for your work on the feditest-framework! I already found 3 things I had to improve for the WebFinger implementation: https://feditest.org/assets/2024-06-05/webfinger-server-all-wellknown-saas-imp.testmatrix.html

@npub1xsv…q6he I wouldn't say "harder than you" but the ones on your list that I know are doing a really fantastic job!!!!
👏 👏 👏 👏

I just attended the "ActivityPub Based Forums and Threaded Discussions" call, and I really like their work on standardising the way, how forums federate.
https://github.com/swicg/forums
Maybe we need something similar for blogging platforms.... /cc [@help](https://micro.blog/activitypub/help) [@write_as](https://writing.exchange/@write_as) ghost
But I think I'll lurk around the #threadiverse community for now.... it's technically very similar... you have a post and reactions...

is there a list of all supported post types?

that seems to be a like! Is this one of the broken ones?

I think these are follow/unfollow/… requests. If you provide me a brid.gy link from your WordPress Comment Edit Screen I can have a look!

Can you share the brid.gy link of one of these comments? You should be able to find that URL on the edit page of such a comment.

is that because of the ActivityPub Bridge? Maybe we should talk how we can best integrate it in the Webmention plugin!?!

2024-04-23 09:26:03

what motivates me to blog more again is the #fediverse!
I'M GETTING COMMENTS AGAIN!
There are discussions about what I write, everyone can use the tool they like best and it still ends up on my blog!
It feels like 2005 again when I started [@notiz.blog](https://notiz.blog/@notiz.blog) !
Only better!

Oh nice! Following a #WordPress blog using #nodebb is working like a charm!
Good job [@julian](https://community.nodebb.org/user/julian)
