@silverpill Do you know with which platforms compatibility would be improved with just this change?

@silverpill Do you think it would be useful if I added the "https://misskey-hub.net/ns#_misskey_quote" rel attribute to bird.makeup in QT right away?

I do believe Elon-only tariffs (Tesla and Starlink) would be quite effective in negociation with minimal side effects, especially if Europe does it too

Because people are reporting problems with images from dotmakeup with Akkoma, Friendica and Hubzilla, I will need help from these communities to debug it.

Please comment your findings here: https://todo.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/36

New feature: dotmakeup can now import profile pictures to ipfs to deal with uncooperative upstream CDN. This means tools like browser.pub can now load profile pictures for kilogram profiles! It will also help for certain AP implementions

How distopian…

Likewise with Akkoma : https://todo.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/18

Can you use bird.makeup from Akkoma?

I have done a lot of work in the past weeks to make dotmakeup more compliant with the AP specs, and I want to know if there are still problems between bird.makeup and firefish/calckey

Can you use bird.makeup from firefish/calckey? Please put your results here:
https://todo.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/13 or as a reply here

@silverpill @lutindiscret @raphael @n0iroh Have you tried using IPFS just for media? I've found that it works better for a few large objects than many small ones

Good news! Thanks to @silverpill 's feedback this week, federation between dotmakeup and @mitra now works!

@mitra users can now follow any twitter account via https://bird.makeup

@silverpill as for the signature, I have published some tweaks for the id on kilogram.makeup. Can you try again?

@silverpill also I'm very interested by @mitra 's ipfs integration.

IPFS is a solution I'm considering to fix IG image download link expiry problem. It would be amazing if mitra instances could pin IG content! I'd much prefer that to something based on S3.

I haven't seen a IPFS AP extension yet, maybe we can collaborate on that?

@silverpill I have done a little patch to do that: https://git.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/commit/d50e4fa7672c4a0887d25ed00995b80948c491f8

The outbox does resolve to an empty collection though, just in case.

I have deployed this on kilogram.makeup, and if we find no federation problems introduced by this change, I will deploy it to bird.makeup too this weekend.

Can you check if there are other problems with federating dotmakeup <> @mitra ?

@silverpill @juanro49 For the header issue, I've made some changes and deployed it to kilogram.makeup: https://git.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/commit/0aa7f14d5b5580438d3999944df825b3cc60b07b

That bit should work now

@silverpill @juanro49 I'm a bit scared of the side effects of an empty outbox on some activitypub implementations, are there some that would assume posts are deleted if they are not in the outbox?

Just published a massive refactoring on the road to full IG support: https://git.sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/commit/b6f7dd61b8f970f0b9af0f6b51771fb6e7852add

This makes it so that the concept of followers is not hard-coded to twitter anymore but can switch dynamically. This has fixed the followers information in the profile page and is necessary in the crawling mode to sent post to the correct followers.

I think there is 2-3 refactoring of that size left and then the crawling will work too!

@Salastil where did Zadeus offer me that? I think I missed it

Found out which one it is

@graf I mean that’s a lot of work to ask me to unban poa.st from bird.makeup
