Fun fact! You can now follow @mauve@staticpub.mauve.moe which is one of the first accounts using the #DistributedPress #ActivityPub #SocialInbox project.

We're finalizing our release so expect more info on how it works shortly!

For folks that don't want to mess with the technical details, keep wacth for @sutty which is integrating this functionality into their static site #CMS using Jekyll!

@Curator @bengo Query, how might one join this space? I'm workong towards onboarding news/blog publishers to ActivityPub via #DistributedPress and we're looking at default blocklists to set folks up with as well as allow lists for bypassing the "noderation queue" on replies to posts. Would be cool yo chat with folks on strategy.

Anyone got an API endpoint of the "most blocked instances" handy? I wanna add it to the initialization flow for the #DistributedPress #SocialInbox

Ideally it'd be nice to say "Here's the top 100 most hated instances so you can preemptively block them if you'd like". It's not perfect but I think this would make it easier for small publishers to get started.

#ActivityPub #moderation #mastodon #fediblock

We've got a new #ActivityPub implementation that'll be released in early September in #DistributedPress!

Instead of fancy frontends and databases, we're focusing on enabling statically published sites to add AP support via a lightweight Social Inbox server that they can register using standard HTTP Signed Messages.

Hey folks! I've done a writeup on the #moderation tools we'll be adding to the #DistributedPress #ActivityPub integration.

This is based on talking to folks on here and reading through discussions people have been having around this topic. We'll be using these tools for blogs we post at #HyphaCoop and will be improving them as we go.

@efi should have some stuff for the reader side in september in #DistributedPress

@computersandblues We're currently coding it up. Aiming to have it ready by September :) I should have smaller milestones before then that folks can try out though. I'll be using the #DistributedPress tag for updates.

#ActivityPub is like email but for social media. The #DistributedPress Social Inbox will enable you to get new comments and followers to your statically published website from any AP-capable service and will work across static blogs too!

Hey folks! Check out this post by Lindsay Walker on how you can host your blog on #P2P protocols using #DistributedPress and view it in #Brave or #Agregore

He he he 😈 I got my first statically published blog to load! Still need to work on the inbox server and get post resolving wired up but I'm happy with the progress so far. @mauve@staticpub.mauve.moe

This is also being published on #p2p protocols on ipns://staticpub.mauve.moe/about.jsonld

One limitation is you can only #webfigner one account per domain.

This is being published using #DistributedPress and is part of our upcoming #ActivityPub integration.

Here's a sneak peek at the architecture for how the #ActivityPub integration in #DistributedPress is going to work!

tl;dr:
- Publish static JSON+HTML for your posts/AP identity (on #IPFS and other #p2p protocols)
- In your AP JSON link to our inbox server
- AP servers use an HTTP gateway to load your AP data
- Users can send replies to your inbox server
- Inbox server has a moderation queue to put follower data and replies back into your site via static files / webhooks

Having a rough one focus-wise today.

Listening to #DeathGrips and fixing up #BitTorrent integration with #DistributedPress

https://soundcloud.com/deathgrips/death-grips-exmilitary-2

Just created the initial pull request to #DistributedPress which adds support for #BitTorrent publishing along side other #p2p protocols!

With this you can expect the next issue of @compost to be available to download via your favorite torrent clients!

BTW my talk on #Holistic #LocalFirst software from #CausalIslands is already out on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0EcpqX2Wq0&t=9073s

This paints my vision for how #p2p #web / #dweb tech can fit in with #mesh networks with @agregore / #DistributedPress / @webrecorder to create a new foundation for resilient and cheaper technology.

Having convos on what the story for #WebMentions / #ActivityStream integration will look like for #DistributedPress

Hoping to iron out a cool new #p2p social layer on top of your #dweb sites later this year!
