I'm glad I asked. This is more about the additional patent license that allows others to use the techniques patent free

It's misleading to say atproto is proprietary. I do wonder if Nostr can also be mislabeled the same way

@galactus @evan @Mushi

I'm trying to understand how atproto is proprietary. Are you saying the license is meaningless?

@evan @Mushi @galactus

Please share how atproto is a proprietary protocol

According to the license file atproto is Dual MIT/Apache-2.0 License which you can view here: https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/blob/main/LICENSE.txt

Also included a screenshot

Open source Ghost cms now has an official account on Bluesky.

They even validated their account with official domain handle

If you have a domain, you can do the same and use it for all atproto based apps

#opensource #ghostcms #ghost #blog #bluesky #cms #atproto #foss #oss #selfhost

activitypub typescript server framework called Fedify announces first stable release. It is being used by the open source Ghost CMS platform. Can't wait to see what other apps are created with Fedify

Github repo here: https://github.com/dahlia/fedify/releases/tag/1.0.0

On Nostr you can post "Olá, Brasil" and then people zap you around $25 worth of tips ... how cool is that?

zaps payment still too complicated for new users to setup though

atproto (bluesky whtwnd etc) and activitypub (mastodon pixelfed etc) do not currently support post "tipping". Fediverse could use something like this

#activitypub #nostr #atproto #bluesky #mastodon #pixelfed #opensource #foss #oss #fediverse

@BeAware @linkachus17 The best image gallery I can think of is immich - check it out at https://github.com/immich-app/immich?tab=readme-ov-file

@BeAware @hikatamika Bluesky doesn't even recognize whtwnd related content though

@BeAware @hikatamika

whtwnd data does not go to Bluesky and should be stored on your PDS. Did something change?

WOW WOW WOW is my initial reaction to the Ditto community server

It is exactly what Nostr needs and what I had hoped atproto would have

It is even compatible with Mastodon API

--previosly nostr relays, storage and ids were complicated
--atproto lacks the ease for self hosters to build their communities compared to those on activitypub

#mastodon #activitypub #atproto #nostr #fediverse #opensource #selfhost #foss

@BeAware @mackuba Yes on Nostr it's a lot more in the open. Activitypub instances has just as many (if not even more) if you look at all the blocked instances

@BeAware @mackuba Every network has what you listed so it'll come down to the moderation tools that each network provides and how they each handle reports

@BeAware To me that's more a personal choice and not an issue similar to using sign in with x (Google/Apple/Microsoft/Github)

Some prefer the convenience of using one account for all of fediverse while others prefer to create a single account for each Pixelfed, Mastodon, Peertube etc

@BeAware I'm confused. What is the issue of it not being an official Bluesky service compared to any peertube instance that is created?

For video sharing content on activitypub, you can register a new account and sign in to peertube instances

It's different over on atproto. You don't need an extra account on Bluemotion video sharing app. Just sign in using your existing Bluesky account

Exciting times for the fediverse!

@Gargron @maikel @GPJohnston I didn't want to single out the person but will send the link to you via DM

I understand some want to sell their work but how many links do they need? Each post need more links 😂

Unrelated ... how many ad popups or ads shown on one page is enough? 😂 😜

@maikel @GPJohnston They seem to boost other similar accounts with just as many links.

Maybe bots? Is there a rule on this flagship instance regarding this? @Gargron

If only all fediverse apps work the same. Mastodon users can see Threads profile but Pixelfed can't. At least there's progress ...

Anyone know if Peertube, Misskey, Lemmy, Friendica and other activitypub apps can see Threads?

@dansup You deserve all the praise for the time and work you put into the Pixelfed project. There's no denying all your efforts at all ...

Also agree with all the feedback you received from @daj @NafiTheBear @terrencefoxfur @lutoma and others

From what I can tell, you are working on: sups, loops, hosted service along with managing several other sites. You are spread thin so many concerns are about prioritizing and addressing issues rather than missing features

Wow congrats! Activitypub for WordPress just released version 2.0.0

Fediverse users from Mastodon, Pixelfed, Misskey, Pleroma and others can interact with your WordPress site content
