My instance is running @dev@microblog.pub with a customized theme

#microblogpub is just perfect for those who want to build a single-user instance with a custom style

So, I finally shut down my Pleroma instance: https://social.jlelse.me

@dan@terse.telent.net #microblogpub needs to support it, I think it's just the matter of adding new keys/data in the actor profile (JSON-LD).

I will look into it whenever I have time and I will keep you updated!

Changelog for the past week:

• Inline images support
• Bugfixes, bugfixes, and bugfixes (both in the frontend and the backend)

#microblogpub #ActivityPub

Just updated my @dev@microblog.pub instance and it was literally me ssh'ing to my server and running the make run command.

Live test of the new location feature on my way to work

#microblogpub

First post via Indigenous - giving the new @dev@microblog.pub micropub integration a try. <3

Changelog for the past week:

• Support for attaching a location/place to a note, using a Place tag, interoperable with #Honk (cc @tedu@honk.tedunangst.com)
• Reshaped the liked/boosted display on permalink pages
• A new "DMs" (direct messages) admin section
• Various bug fixes
• Hit the 777 commits threshold

#microblogpub #ActivityPub #IndieWeb

I can stop pushing commits today

Changelog for the past two weeks:

• Support for manually approving followers
• UI tweaks (more actor icons)
• various bugfixes

#ActivityPub

Nice, microblog.pub works even with an EDGE connection, which is a totally common situation in 3rd world country Germany

Outbound Webmentions support is also here.

External links in public notes will now receive a #Webmention if supported.

It can be disabled in the configuration. No support for receiving them.

#ActivityPub #IndieWeb

New features pushed this week:

• summary/cw support
• attachment description support (a11y)
• profile metadata support
• auto actor update
• template tweaks/fixes

#ActivityPub

Testing

Now processing Read activities from #honk, for federated replies!

@tedu@honk.tedunangst.com is it used by other AP implementations?

I like the idea, I've stopped sending replies (in Create like Mastodon) since LD signature has been dropped.

Even though i have only edge i am still able to post to my microblog.pub instance because it does not use much data. Thanks to @dev@microblog.pub for making it the way it is.

More bug fixes

Weird

I was looking why a custom emoji wasn't showing up, it turns out #Mastodon updated the Emoji attachment, after it was posted in my inbox!

The URL of the emoji in the message is 502ing and the Emoji AP object returns a 404. When I fetch the message, I see a different emoji in the attachment.

Trying to follow the creator of the new Fediverse software Epicyon (to check federation).

Got a an error POSTing to the inbox (400).

Look at source code, and see getNicknameFromActor(actor: str) -> str:. The "nickname" is extracted using "well-known" path prefix in the URL.

The nickname is not part of the URL in microblog.pub, it's in the actor payload.

#ActivityPub

Server-side syntax highlighting for code snippets is here (this and various improvements)

import antigravity

def main():
    antigravity.fly()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Working on custom emojis support

#ActivityPub

Huge code cleanup almost done

@stephen@vanderwarker.ml

Please report issues! I am focused on bug fixing these days.

Lot of bug fixes this week!

@nipos@social.avareborn.de You should have a refresh button to get the "federated" results. On my test mastodon.social account, it shows the right results.

And, unlike Pleroma (at least for now), microblog.pub is sending/pushing a final Update with the results (Mastodon is spamming with Update, I don't want to implement that, so it sends only 1 final update).

And the backend will also fetch results from the object directly at the end of the poll for implementations that does not send updates.

But of course, I discovered some bugs and not everything's working as expected, so I am working on fixing that.
