@Mastodon

@Mastodon @dpgalliance congrats, welcome to the club

@earthworm thanks for the comment here. This post is really on the non-technical, non-software side, to help to explain some of the other things you will have seen the team doing (events, etc). We are absolutely also working on improving Mastodon and the features you mentioned too. We hope you will see some of them in the upcoming version 4.4.

@_elenaThank you for naming the #fedimagicIt was so imoressiv, to see and feel how freedom tastes, when i saw my first peertube-video in friendica 🥰

How it works between forums, e.g. between Discourse and NodeBB?Can a Discourse user create a topic in NodeBB category?Who creates/owns the context collection in this case?

@[email protected] said in Backfilling Conversations: Two Major Approaches: A number of implementors follow this approach to backfill, including NodeBB, Discourse, WordPress, Frequency, Mitra, and Streams. Additional implementors like Lemmy and Piefed have expressed interest. Is this implemented currently? One weakness I have noticed in NodeBB's current federation is that posts which are in reply to a topic (e.g. a Lemmy comment) show up as individual threads until (or if) the root post of that topic shows up in the local NodeBB. It's a bit confusing of a UX, I think. Because you think: (Before root post) Why is this a post that seems to be just a random comment? (After root post) Why did that other thread disappear and why am I seeing the same comment again?

@Mastodon really could use a selection option for YouTube url handling in the mobile app next. This would allow opening links to YouTube in freetube, newpipe and other fediverse video apps instead of via a browser tab that goes straight to youtube.com

@Mastodon @philipkristians @leonido How can I connect with you all

[email protected] Yeah, being able to treat Mastodon and Lemmy/mbin/piefed like a bulletin board continues to feel like magic.

That instance runs Lemmy 1.0 which is still in alpha state, and the frontend is not compatible yet. So only the api works there.

@Mastodon El día domingo 25/05/25 se realizaron las mega elecciones en la República Bolivariana de Venezuela, dicho proceso en el cual el voto del pueblo para elegir a 24 gobernadores y a parlamentarios nacionales y regionales, se ejecutó en absoluta Paz; las organizaciones políticas revolucionarias socialistas obtuvieron el triunfo de 23 gobernaciones y la mayoría absoluta de los Diputados/as tanto a nivel nacional como regional.Los factores derechistas y ultra derechistas fueron derrotados

Hey [email protected] thanks for responding (and sorry for the late reply!) I am not married to the Announce([Article|Note|Page]) approach, so I am definitely open to Create([Article|Note|Page]) with a back-reference. I think I went the former direction because there is a known fallback mechanism — the Announce is treated as a share/boost/repost as normal. However, sending the Create also is fine I think. However, do we need a backreference? In my limited research, it seems that Piefed, et al. picks the first Group actor and associates the post with that community. If I sent over a Create(Article) with two Group actors addressed, could Piefed associate the post with the first, and initiate a cross-post with the remaining Group actors? Secondly, is how to handle sync. 1b12 relies on communities having reciprocal followers in order for two-way synchronization to be established. On my end since I know it is cross-posted I will now send 1b12 activities to cross-posted communities, but can Piefed, et al. send 1b12 activities back as well, in the absence of followers? cc [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
