StrypeyThe intro to HDA (Hypermedia-Driven Applications) I've been raving about today seems relevant to the ongoing discussions about C2S APIs for the fediverse, especially the proliferation of the monolithic server+web-app antipattern. I've started a SH topic on it;
socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/
But SH seems like a ghost town ATM. Tried to post on ActivityPub.space but their interface hates my mobile browser (Fennec from F-Droid) 🤷♂️
@strypey can't you cross-post?
Hey @strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz (and @evan@cosocial.ca), I’ve cross-posted your topic to @technical-discussion
Hopefully that will kick-start some activity. Happy to discuss what Fennec is encountering… it’s odd because Fennec from F-Droid was my daily driver for awhile, and I didn’t have any issues… mainly push notifications were not supported.
@julian @strypey oh, cool. I mostly meant, I thought people could use SH to post on ap.s and vice versa.
@evan@cosocial.ca vice versa only, yes.
So from a.s I can see and browse into a SocialHub forum. SocialHub cannot see any other content from the open social web as it lacks discovery features (e.g. a timeline, user following, etc.)
A socialhub forum CAN “sync” with a threadiverse community and pull in content that way. It used to be connected to @general that way but there was too much content, and out of respect of their customs (and the relatively lower SNR compared to the local topics there), I terminated the connection.
@julian ah, ok!
