Fedilab Apps@apps@toot.fedilab.app (2026-05-30 04:43:34) After a full week of work on #HolosSocial, I will deploy the new relay code tomorrow to support multi-device, and compile the apps.
Next week I will be back to #Fedilab.
Switching too much between projects doesn't help, but spending more than a week on a single project is not a good move either.
Fedilab and Holos are two big projects that deserve a balanced approach. Thank you for your patience.

It enables DID addressing in ActivityPub, and client-side signing.

Reply to @silverpill@mitra.social julian@julian@activitypub.space (2026-05-30 04:19:46) Well... in most respects, I think you've got it. However, in my mind, a cross-post is merely an activity that references the original object. So there's no forwarding of comments to the primary community, the post belongs to the primary community, it also just happens to also belong to the secondary community.


There's no backreference for it, though, which I don't really like. It'd be better if a cross-post was approved and then the object itself updated a crossposts collection or something. I was toying with the idea of maybe using Offer to signify that action, but I wasn't too invested in making it happen.

Reply to @julian@activitypub.space silverpill@silverpill@mitra.social (2026-05-30 04:15:44) So you send a Create to the primary community, and then CrossPost to secondary communities. All comments are forwarded to the primary community. The primary communities also moderates the thread.

I am understanding it correctly?

This sounds similar to a "repost" in blogo-verse.

And the current implementation (with separate entities) is more similar to quote posts.

Reply to @silverpill@mitra.social julian@julian@activitypub.space (2026-05-30 04:01:22) That would be simplest but doesn't allow for third parties to cross post. So I think a separate activity would be needed.

Reply to @julian@activitypub.space silverpill@silverpill@mitra.social (2026-05-30 03:59:26) If you were to implement federated cross-posting, how it would work? A post addressed to multiple communities (more than 1 item in audience)?

Reply to @silverpill@mitra.social julian@julian@activitypub.space (2026-05-30 02:51:38) It was noted that there were some social barriers that would be crossed if federated cross-posting were implemented.


Namely, tribalism exists in all corners of the fediverse (related; see Jaz' "million fediverses" blog post). It is more pronounced in the threadiverse because there are explicit fences around communities, e.g. sports team, political leanings, etc.


There is the potential for abuse to occur if cross-posting were made available to users. e.g. enabling dogpiling by cross-posting to a community who does not share the values of the original post.


In and of itself that's not a reason to not move forward with this. I went ahead and implemented cross-posting in NodeBB itself, but only locally. That is, remote posts can be cross-posted to local categories, but not the other way around. It's worth noting that me doing this already enables the dogpiling behaviour, though NodeBB forums in general aren't really all that tribalistic so in practice there have been no issues.


As far as I know, Piefed and Lemmy still treat cross-posts as separate entities. However, they both have independent implementations where similar posts (those that have the same Link, I think) are "linked" in a manner of sorts. Browsing the comments of one post would show comments from similar posts across different communities.


NodeBB does not do this because we do not group content together by Link.

The money you save on fuel, maintenance and repair will more than cover the higher monthly payment for an EV

Reply to @jaykuo@universeodon.com Evan Prodromou@evan@cosocial.ca (2026-05-30 02:27:15) @jaykuo that's interesting. There are far more than 250,000 US citizens who have died since social security records were digitized; I wonder what's special about these 250K people that others were deleted and they were not? I also don't see a strong reason to remove dead people from the Social Security database; a flag on the record would be fine.

They remain nominally in the system as legacy entries, and do not collect any benefits, because it is too expensive to update our old systems to remove the presumably deceased. (This is physically painful to listen to.)
