Patch releases for #Fedify versions 1.0.21, 1.1.18, 1.2.18, 1.3.14, and 1.4.7 are now available. These updates address two important bugs across all supported release lines:

  1. Fixed a WebFinger handler bug that prevented matching acct: URIs with port numbers in the host. Thanks to @revathskumar for reporting and debugging the bug!
  2. Resolved server errors that occurred when invalid URLs were passed to the base-url parameter of followers collections.

We recommend all users upgrade to these latest patch versions for improved stability and federation compatibility.

The latest update on the AI-generated #ActivityPub server in C++... it now supports publishing signed messages and actors can be configured to autorespond. One autoresponder will use a local LLM (ollama) to generate responses to direct messages. Overall, the experiment has been useful. The code is not the greatest, but it works, which really surprises me. However, I'm seeing the agent having more issues as the complexity of the code increases. I may need to step in and write some code myself. 😮

Ok. #snac is a fine #Activitypub server. It’s very light and simple, it works great by itself, but has important limitations/bugs when used through 3rd party front-ends like #Phanpy and even #Tusky.
I just can’t live with those limitations and bugs on the long term. I’m going to test #GotoSocial for a while, more thoroughly than #snac, to make sure it’s a good option for me.
If I follow you from this account, you’ll probably be followed in the next hours by my GTS test account (don’t bother to follow-back, that test account will be destroyed eventually).

"As it turns out, the current plan to tie Tumblr into the open social web will come about by way of the site’s planned move to the WordPress infrastructure.

Automattic confirmed to TechCrunch that when the migration is complete, every Tumblr user will be able to federate their blog via ActivityPub, just as every WordPress.com user can today."

Link at end but I am amused by the replies and discourse to this article for the bafflement regarding the existance of small Fedi, Fedi users that don’t want to interact with the whole of users. Small Fedi has people that honestly just want to be left the fuck alone. The more tech minded of the Fedi, big Fedi, as described here, is astonished such a thing could exist and my sides are splitting from them realizing not everybody wants to talk to you. wedistribute.org/2025/03/websi #Fediverse #ActivityPub #privacy

Hi all! I'm a concert organiser and musician and I'm planning to organise within the community a series of discussion events on the fediverse as a concrete alternative to fascist soc media. But, at the same time, to be able to meaningfully answer the questions many might have, I'm trying to wrap my head around how the ActivityPub works, in particular regarding cross-servers visibility, and how inherent certain beviours are. Any pointer is really welcome! <3
