@fwc @sneeden Private posts work differently in Mitra and Pleroma:

- Mitra doesn't show partial threads. Pleroma displays partial threads and converts replies with invisible parent into top-level posts.
- Mitra enforces conversation scope. Pleroma and Mastodon don't seem to respect conversation scope at all, so it's possible to reply with a public post to a followers-only post, or add more people to an existing DM conversation. They also generate replies with wrong audience in followers-only conversations.

So the interoperability is limited, but I think Pleroma and Mastodon are broken and I don't want to copy their flaws

Thanks for reporting this to Pleroma devs!

@lsn

ZeroNet had many forks. One of them is still active:

@sendpaws @jeff I like the idea of Urbit, but the implementation is horrible. I think a similar system could be built by combining existing technology, e.g. ActivityPub, I2P and WASM, but for some reason they are trying to re-build everything from scratch.

Surprised that it is still alive.

@dsm @pwm

According to the RFC, you must return JSON document if no Accept header is provided:

A WebFinger resource MUST return a JRD as the representation for the resource if the client requests no other supported format explicitly via the HTTP "Accept" header.

@y I am not an admin there, maybe @mint or @iwojima @iwojima could help

@kaeurenne Hello!

Mitra doesn't support inline images. This feature is on the roadmap, but has low priority because inline images are not widely supported in the Fediverse.

You can find a list of supported markdown syntaxes here: https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra/src/branch/main/docs/post_markup.md

@dsm @pwm mitra doesn't add an Accept header when it resolves webfinger address. It worked fine with Pleroma in the past, though.

@adiz Mitra implements this Mastodon API method:

https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/accounts/#statuses

You can get a list of your own posts using it, then delete ones older than X

There are several fedi instances in I2P network, for example http://accela.i2p/
They are not running Lemmy, though.

If you want to run an instance yourself, check out Mitra, it supports i2p / tor federation and is easy to configure.

@i2p

@adiz Mitra doesn't support auto-deletion out of the box, but you can write a script that makes REST API calls and deletes old posts.

Why there is no multicodec for PGP public keys?

Clarification proposed https://github.com/w3c/activitypub/issues/504

I think Mastodon respecting 410 Gone would be the cleanest solution: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/33290#issuecomment-2602875388

@proto-s2s

@scott I can only think of FEP-ef61 (nomadic identity for ActivityPub), but it is only supported by Streams/Forte and not by Hubzilla.

Also, a comment regarding FEP-171b. It is based on the implementation of Conversation Containers in Streams. The original document describing Conversation Containers appeared in the streams repository on 2024-02-03:

@scott

FEP-61cf: The OpenWebAuth Protocol, which provides federated single sign on, was submitted as a Fediverse Enhancement Proposal (FEP), special thanks to FenTiger and silverpill.

That FEP was entirely FenTiger's work :)

@Floppy Should the link in the post resolve an ActivityPub object?

I get 406 Not Acceptable when trying to fetch it

@rayslava Yes, I think we can add more details to the log message.

@mariusor The local copy should be enough if you check the signature (Mitra signs POST requests and adds integrity proofs to activities).

Yes, I am very interested in learning about your approach to ACLs. I tried to implement proper access control in a little side project, and that turned out to be more complicated than I expected.

@mariusor Follow activities are not accessible. Mitra doesn't support signed fetch (yet), so it serves only public activities.
