Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Thursday, 21-Feb-2019 13:33:46 EST Yuri Volkov @emacsen I mentioned WebFingerId not as a part of WebFinger protocol, but only as an artificially created identifier, helping to figure out the same actors via old-style (Twitter-like...) client APIs (which don't provide globally unique identifiers of actors (users...)). As we're currently are figuring out, how to use #ActivityPub C2S protocol in the real world :-) I see that … -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Saturday, 27-Oct-2018 09:25:54 EDT Yuri Volkov Note - Client to server #ActivityPub layer for #Pump.io ?! @alex@pump.strugee.net @evan@identi.ca Hello pals! Looking at the http://status.hackerposse.com/url/6776's GitHub site http://status.hackerposse.com/url/17884 I see some discussions regarding #ActivityPub support, but I couldn't figure out if you are implementing client to server layer of #ActivityPub ?! If yes, wha… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Tuesday, 29-May-2018 01:47:44 EDT Yuri Volkov After a long break I tried Profiler in Android Studio looking for a way to optimize performance of #AndStatus. And now it not only works, but allows me, at least on #Android emulator, to see most lengthy operations. As a result, a timeline loads at least three times faster. To be released in AndStatus v.39. Profiler allows you to record your application's activity and present … -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Sunday, 13-May-2018 12:20:52 EDT Yuri Volkov @jaller94 Thank you very much for the contribution. The http://status.hackerposse.com/url/17388 really looks like a unifying way to store metadata for both F-Droid and Google Play, both of which #AndStatus uses. I was especially impressed by the tool's (advertized...) feature "fastlane supply init: download metadata for an existing app to a local directory", which I understa… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Oct-2017 01:46:12 EDT Yuri Volkov @jark Reviewing and improving #ActivityPub specification is not about coding/programming. It's about analysis and modeling. But my experience shows that it's hard to notice problems and mistakes in such documents, until you don't try to start actually using it in practise, in this case - starting to implement some application using this specification OR starting to adapt this … -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Thursday, 12-Oct-2017 03:06:24 EDT Yuri Volkov @cwebber@octodon.social The same for me: Only implementing now domain model of #ActivityPub /#ActivityStreams in my #AndStatus application I became deep enough aware of the specs' advantages and shortcomings... so I initiated another round of the spec fixes. Sorry that not months ago...

Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Thursday, 12-Oct-2017 02:57:54 EDT Yuri Volkov @cwebber@octodon.social Thank you for reply to the #ActivityPub issue at http://status.hackerposse.com/url/16270 I followed the discussion there plus copying my follow-up below: 1. Let's go step by step. Explicitly stating that Actors and Users are different entities is a good way forward. BTW the confusing phrase "users are represented as "actors" here" should also be changed… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Monday, 09-Oct-2017 01:48:29 EDT Yuri Volkov @mike@macgirvin.com I agree that #ActivityStreams2 is well designed. Maybe this is exactly because its ideas are actively tested in practice for several years in http://status.hackerposse.com/url/3385. Confusion of Actors and Users of servers in the #ActivityPub I regard as a conceptual mistake that should be fixed _now_. So I proposed concrete additions to the spec in this is… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Sunday, 01-Oct-2017 01:04:45 EDT Yuri Volkov I filed a bug for #ActivityPub, which is exactly about Person's freedom to choose (and actually, change) an instance/server of a global social network without loosing his/her identity, including historical data. Moving from one instance of a federation to another is a normal case, just like having user accounts at several servers. And #ActivityPub specification should explici… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Friday, 29-Sep-2017 02:00:09 EDT Yuri Volkov @cwebber Reposting to make sure you received my reply. Where should I file this #ActivityPub issue? The #ActivityPub spec's problem is not in that simplistic phrase "users are represented as actors here". The problem is that there is NO technical description of the whole domain model layer: relation between Actors (e.g. Person) and Users of servers. Current version will be int… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Tuesday, 15-Aug-2017 01:28:33 EDT Yuri Volkov Suggested correction to http://status.hackerposse.com/url/14896 1. I noticed an inaccuracy in section 6.9. "Undo Activity" "The undo activity and the activity being undone must both have the same author." "author" should be changed to "actor" here so it will read: "The undo activity and the activity being undone must both have the same actor." 2. Actually, the "author" prop… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Sunday, 14-May-2017 03:32:14 EDT Yuri Volkov Yesterday I was implementing #Mastodon API in #AndStatus. Comparing AndStatus with #Tusky client at some point I noticed that Tusky shows me a new post, which mentions myself. But I couldn't find the same post in any timeline that AndStatus feeds from the Mastodon server. It appeared that in addition to Twitter/GNU Social-like timelines Mastodon has something conceptually simi… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Saturday, 13-May-2017 05:30:29 EDT Yuri Volkov @perspicacious01 As I understand, full text search would require much more resources than a simple hashtag indexing. On the other hand, knowing that hashtags are searchable, allows to write messages with predictable #discoverability. I mean that adding a known hashtag to a message will ensure that the message will be present in the "Hashtag timeline". BTW in #AndStatus such "H… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Wednesday, 26-Apr-2017 01:52:12 EDT Yuri Volkov @wakest Most important features of Mastodon support are implemented in AndStatus, but I need some more checks and additions before Beta release. Especially regarding image attachment...

Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Monday, 27-Mar-2017 01:26:55 EDT Yuri Volkov Calendar Widget for Android got a new compact and clear "Single line" layout, see the screenshots http://status.hackerposse.com/url/14590 To be honest, I dreamed about something like this since the first day I joined this Open Source project two years ago :-) Looking at what this layout brings to us, I don't understand, why I didn't do this earlier. Probably I thought that add… -
Yuri Volkov (yvolk)'s status on Monday, 24-Oct-2016 14:15:30 EDT Yuri Volkov I'm beginning to rediscover http://status.hackerposse.com/url/6776 After the report http://status.hackerposse.com/url/12307 by http://status.hackerposse.com/url/12308 I realised that due to some error in http://status.hackerposse.com/url/155 I stopped receiving messages from the people, that I follow, at least 6 months ago. Instead, I was receiving messages by some other person… -
