   It is harder to write bots for the Fediverse than ANY OTHER platform I've ever used, including Matrix.

     When I release the code for the new Fedi Bot you will see how much bullshit I had to do, and I GUARANTEE it doesn't work on something like Friendica or Streams.

     @icedquinn There is some bullshit with Matrix, it may be better now but a couple years ago like it was impossible to correctly pick up exactly where the chat connection started because it would stream a bunch of old chats to you on connection.

     Please just give me a a websocket that streams raw ActivityPub objects addressed to me. That would help a little.

     @sun @j Already tried with Pleroma I think.
     https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma/-/merge_requests/2408
     I imagine holding that many sockets open wasn't really feasible.
     
     Nostr does federate over websockets though I think.

     Btw, you very likely already know this, but Mastodon API supports streaming timelines and notifications over websockets. Pleroma does support this API, but that's probably all the fedi servers that bothered with it. So if you want the bot to be more or less portable, it's probably not a great choice and it's not raw AP objects I think.
