with all the meta about the new social network called W going on I thought it was funny I just discovered a new flavor of #fediverse server at z.org. Looks like its author @maxfield got federation working last month and they named the software #Elektrine#fedidev
RE: varese.social/@emanuelecariatiAndré Menrath (@linos) did a great talk called [Interoperability of Events in the Fediverse] that I only just now got a chance to watch. This is an area of the #fediverse that really doesn't get enough attention, and the work that André is doing with event-federation.eu is super excellent. Anyway watch the presentation here vimeo.com/1137648835 and let's get events fully federating with all their depth and nuance intact!#fediverse #fedidev
[Fedify] is a #TypeScript framework for building #ActivityPub servers that participate in the #fediverse. It reduces the complexity and boilerplate typically required for ActivityPub implementation while providing comprehensive federation capabilities.
Found this helpful resource by Ben Boyter (@boyter@honk.boyter.org): a collection of sequence diagrams explaining how #ActivityPub/#WebFinger works in practice—covering post creation, follows, boosts, deletions, and user migration.
A ReDoS (Regular Expression Denial of Service) vulnerability has been discovered in Fedify’s HTML parsing code. This vulnerability could allow a malicious federated server to cause denial of service by sending specially crafted HTML responses.
A while back I mentioned the idea of “Fedify Studio”—a web-based toolkit for #ActivityPub debugging and development. I’ve been quietly working on shaping that idea into something more concrete.
