Updates tagged with ostatus on Hacker Poesy!
bobjonkman: I seem to recall there's a standard API that should be common to all the #StatusNet derivitave servers. I'm pretty sure that in its infancy Mastodon conformed to that API. But Mastodon's API expanded beyond that, and I suspect some of the common API was removed, probably around the time #OStatus was dropped from Mastodon too. But that's sheer speculation on my part.

bobjonkman: bobjonkman favorited something by lnxw48a1: https://500ish.com/mastodon-brought-a-protocol-to-a-product-fight-ba9fda767c6a #Medium link; don't be surprised if it does weird things before showing you the article. "Mastodon brought a protocol to a product fight" > Yes, yes, the network is under immense strain as people flee the Elon strain infecting Twitter. But come on, there are folks who really believe this is going to replace, or even stand alongside Twitter, as a massively scaled social network? I call bullshit. While it’s impressive that millions of users have apparently given Mastodon a try, the product is far too slapdash and clunky to keep folks engaged. A lump of coal. No, it isn't meant to be a #Twitter replacement. Keep your Twitter account until you no longer want it--or the company closes and the site shuts down--you can use Mastodon alongside Twitter. And the #Fediverse networks are much more than just #Mastodon. Don't think you have experienced the network and all it has to offer if all you've done is briefly tried to use Mastodon, because you haven't experienced it. > I’ve somehow avoided signing up for the service up until now. Largely because signing up was and is so comically obtuse — pick your server everyone, hope you choose wisely! Have you not used e-mail? It works the same way. You pick a server, such as Gmail or Outlook dot com, and sign up. Please tell me you realize that the people you communicate with are not all on the same e-mail service that you use. > But, but, it’s not a product, it’s a protocol. Yeah, that’s a nice thing to say. And to believe in. But I truly believe the ship has sadly sailed for such idealism in this space. Jack Dorsey can talk about how this should have been what Twitter was from the get go until he’s bluesky in the face. It’s just not going to happen. And he’s more to blame for that than most everyone else. As is he for the Elon element of this current equation. But that’s a different story. Okay, so how about this story: Twitter has only been profitable two or three years of its entire history. Since it started, it has existed by burning through investors' funds. Eventually, with or without Elon Musk's ownership, that runs out. Without such funding, their corporate-centralized ( #corpocentric ) model cannot exist very long. And same for their centralized competitors, such as Post.news, Gab, Parler, and so on. What is left is either #federated or #peer-to-peer approaches, where no single entity is responsible for funding and managing the entire network. So whether it is the #Fediverse ( with #ActivityPub and #OStatus and their successors ) & the Federation ( with #Diaspora ) or #Bluesky, or #Twister, or #NOSTR, the eventual future of #socnets is #decentralized, if not entirely peer-to-peer unless a national government takes over Facebook and Twitter in order to provide effectively unlimited resources. It is the protocol that makes it possible for thousands or millions of instances to displace and replace one big centralized instance. 1/2

bobjonkmanformer: The author's explanation of expectation of "security" or "privacy" in #Mastodon is concerning. Knowing that !OStatus provides no privacy or security at all, bolting privacy and security features onto #Mastodon isn't going to work.

mmn: @b9ace !OStatus instances don't generally filter or algorithmise the feeds, so repeating/boosting/faving is not necessary to increase a post's worth. If people want to see more posts they'll subscribe to you and get them. There's no need to work around any built-in capitalism, so your posts will likely be seen by more than you'd think would see them on shitter.

mmn: @rossjones I think you've mixed up the definitions of publisher, subscriber, hub, callback etc. Of course you can run your own hub - or use a third party if you want. The way the hub URL(s) is discovered is via a rel="hub" in (in !OStatus' case) the Atom feed, like so: in https://social.umeahackerspace.se/api/statuses/user_timeline/2.atom

bobjonkmanformer: Is anyone collecting all these disparate #OStatus and !GNUsocial documentation items in one location? Is there one location available for collecting all these things?

mmn: @limer I read your article on http://status.hackerposse.com/url/14954 and as a proponent of an open web, However: * You assume that [any !OStatus instance] has the responsibility to verify its users.

mmn: @sylvhem !OStatus falls back on Atom which doesn't care. @Gargron If anyone who cares enough happened to have time and energy maybe it would be so that AS 'note' types are single paragraphs of text and AS 'blog' are more freely designed multi-paragraph. This is however not a suggestion and I'm really just happy with how things work now.
