[OP] Active vs static/passive protocols is a big scaling, security, and maintenance problem. I wrote about it previously [1] and proposed adding a static option to ActivityPub and was flatly denied. [1] https://justingarriso

[OP] the reason I pointed that out is because public figures (reporters, celebs) can't risk that. If a server is hacked and their private key is stolen you could post anything you want as them. Of course twitter has had the same proble

[OP] Bluesky/AT protocol solves this by making identity a DNS domain verified with TXT record. That's also 1. unsquatable 2. universal across apps My Bluesky name is my site justingarrison.com and it can be that on any other sites

[OP] very good point and Wordpress has a ton of adoption. I used to run my own until it got hacked multiple times over a years and I got tired of fixing or restoring it. Once tumblr has ActivityPub integration it'll have the largest no

[OP] Can someone explain to me why when I submit my articles to HN [1] they are mostly ignored but when other people submit them they go to front page? Why is there no automatic post merging? It’s really hard to keep track of replies and en

I don't disagree. Forums is a great example although each one is an island of information for specific communities. Do you have any stats about if forums are growing in users? I used them for decades, but can't remember the last t

The decoder interview touched on that and he said they have no plans for that model. Right now all of the larger instances have a variety of ways to get donations. I agree it would be better if it were integrated into the app to make it eas

[OP] I wrote the article because putting the time and financial burden of operating large distributed networks on individuals is not maintainable. The fact that the parent company has no plans to change that except to make it more expensive

I'm not sure about telling when my skin is burnt, but it has limited my ability to tell when other people (eg my kids) are sick, pale, or blushing. It's often something I rely on others to tell me because I don't see a differ

Glad it helped. My goal is to make a static site/mastodon bridge too. I'm working on the /inbox portion next and then will tackle the outbox stuff in a future post.

That’s really cool! Thanks for sharing, but doesn’t a rewrite rule still require an active web server component and not static file listing? I’m not sure if you could implement something similar with s3

Thanks for the note! That’s exactly why I made it and created the post. I plan to implant the active parts of the spec in future posts

I explain that a bit in the blog post and video. I plan to implement more of the protocol to allow for following (inbox) and posting (outbox). Those are still ActivityPub but Mastodon is the most popular implementation of the protocol so pe

I agree. I wish activitypub was more static file friendly. Many of the URLs don’t require parameters but almost all of them use them. I wanted to show how you could do it without them

If you want a powerful and cheap cluster I recommend getting old enterprise desktops. They work great. I have a full post about options here (it's a bit old but still relevant) https://rothgar.medium.com/on-prem-develop

You might be interested in the latte panda boards [1] or up boards [2]. They're cheaper than the LP-179 but also less powerful and customizable. However they do have standard cases and are more popular than the LP-179. 1: https:/
