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. Time to upgra…

History of #Laconica, #StatusNet, #GnuSocial ... and the beginning of #PostActiv https://social.umeahackerspace.se/conversation/455000

By the way, @tobias, I think your #Textile plugin for #StatusNet was the basis for @chimo's #Markdown plugin for #GNUsocial.
-
Definitely all #GS (and #StatusNet if there are any left; and #postActiv) instances, most #Friendica and a few #Hubzilla instances. A few remaining (not updated) #Mastodon and #Pleroma instances.
At one time, there was a plugin for WordPress that let people comment over #OStatus. I do not know if said plugin is still maintained.

Okay, I see from error messages that #StatusNet 2.0 requires the funky new features of #PHP > 7.0. That means a #Debian upgrade, which will almost certainly break some stuff. I'm already running PHP 5.6 and 7.0 side by side (can't remember how I got that to work). To be continued another day…

Why look at https://fluxbb.org/ when you know you’re not planning to set up a forum? It was just interesting. I came across it accidentally, from a site which had integrated a #FluxBB forum.
Oh, wow. Does anyone still remember the #StatusNet wiki ( #MediaWiki ) and forum ( #VanillaForum ) ? What a battle we had trying to keep back the spammers!

@tealturtle I knew of some people from West Africa (but none from Southern or Central Africa) years ago, before the #bifurcation.
.
I think they were #lost to the #corpocentric networks when Identica switched to #Pump.io and many #StatusNet instances closed.

And if it's not possible to run !GNUsocial or #StatusNet on #PHP7, whether it's possible to run #Apache with #PHP7 in one virtual server, and #PHP5 in another...

@dissolve Even #StatusNet could do it actually .) Just like how you can supply an http/https URL when subscribing.

@craigmaloney #StatusNet was not only released under the #GPL, but the #AGPL (Affero GPL). The AGPL was explicitly designed to also keep remote services free as in freedom. The GPL unfortunately doesn't defend rights when it comes to webservices etc. but (if I remember the legalese correctly) AGPL has the language of "conveying" instead of "distributing" etc.

Oh boy, Evan Prodromou (of #StatusNet / #Pump / #OStatus fame) showed up on #Diaspora's GitHub Issue tracker and asked that we support #ActivityPubIt's a nice thought, and hopefully we can do that in the long term. But some part of me is apprehensive about the spec and the leg work it will take to support it. There are certain unanswered questions, such a…

@maloki Right, that thing could probably be fixed by doing a remote-fetch of parent (which I believe #Mastodon does for replies to unknown posts, right?). I haven't checked whether the feed is fixed yet (@Gargron mentions the Suprrrfeedrrrrr "sanitation" with thr:in-reply-to) We stitch together instances in !GNUsocial based on the conversation URI though, which is nev…

@kris I remember when #StatusNet was one of their "One-click install" packages. It was slow, and you couldn't enable the "Realtime" feature (long-running processes would get killed) but it worked.

@strypey For example !GNUsocial allows for remote deletion but there is no guarantee that anyone cares about the requests. Take older #StatusNet installations for example, they don't support the 'delete' verb.
-
I just click the "Reply" icon, and the !StatusNet software takes care of the rest. Maybe this will stop working when I get around to upgrading to !GNUsocial
-
To reply to a post in !GNUsocial you have to find a copy of it in your own instance. Older versions of !StatusNet pointed both the datetime URL and the conversations URL to the originating instance; I think newer !GNUsocial code has fixed that. As a workaround you can 'favorite' the notice, then it shows up under the "Popular" menu item http://status.hackerposse.com/url/13872 Or y…

@tekk Dmytri Kleiner bases the "failure" of StatusNet on two incorrect assumptions: !StatusNet is meant to "defeat" Twitter and Facebook, and StatusNet is required to grow. Despite all his anti-capitalist rhetoric, he still adheres to the notions of competition and market share.
-
Yup, no HTTPS on sn.jonkman.ca. This instance was set up well before LetsEncrypt was available, and !GNUsocial (and !StatusNet before it) don't take well to changing the URL scheme. So, either I keep the groups and it stays HTTP or I switch to HTTPS and lose the groups. I opt for the former.
-
Thought I'd install #VirtualMin, but it ate my #MariaDB setup, tried to replace it with #MySQL, botched the installation, and I had to recover it all manually. Killed my !StatusNet daemons, had to #KickTheDaemons. Sorry for the interrupted service. !SysAdmin #Fail.
