@lj_writes I agree with Mike here, AP provides for many functions that aren't yet implemented across all the #fediverse apps, because they couldn't be federated under #OStatus (the older standard #Mastodon adopted from #StatusNet / #GNUsocial) or choices were made not to use them (eg groups in Mastodon). @mike can you recommend the DW crew a more general resource on implementing AP than the Mastodon one they are looking at?

Whatchutalkinbout Willis? #GNU_Social has supported federated polls since the #StatusNet days, and long before #Twitter added it. (I don't think Qvitter supports polls, but there are other reasons to avoid it already.) -

Somsants went live early 2012, we hoped other nodes would appear in other barrios de Barcelona and a new sovereign network would be born. But it never happened (yet, anyway). Back then we all ran statusnet software. I don't know the details on exactly how the transition to gnusocial happened. @mattl @mmn I think the !fediverse really took hold after the identica incident. It was as if the sun had been removed from the solar system. Just a few disorientated planets left behind. It was only then, once the overwhelmingly big central node had gone, that other nodes grew in equal conditions.
I also remember Erkan finding us and getting in touch personally by email. Pulling us together, letting us know we were not alone and creating a sense of sysadmin community. I found this old email.

Subject: Fwd: 1. security hole in your Statusnet instance
Hola,
see below points 1 and 3-5 (don't make the patch public yet until we reach most of the SN admins)
join also the SNadmins group (1) + the mailing list (2) so next time I have not so much work to do.
Also: if you know the email of other SN admins, tell them please.
Erkan
Hi,
1. we discovered today a SQL injection bug in Statusnet (SN)
I'm trying to get hold of most SN admins but my dent (1) seems not to reach you (2) this is the fix: http://somsants.net/url/113352
2. The text at the bottom of your statusnet install says: http://somsants.net/url/3787 is a microblogging service brought to you by "Free Software Foundation". but the link is wrong (the part between " ")
http://somsants.net/url/113353
3. don't distribute the patch for 1. yet in public before we reach all SN admins (3)
4. Joshua will report this soon as CVE
5. you can reach us in the freenode irc channel #statusnet

@kd0bpv I haven't used #OStatus since I hosted a #StatusNet instance, but I recall I could follow my blog. Not sure how that works these days, but I bet it is easier with #GNUSocial than #Mastodon. Although, maybe pop a blog URL in the search box, see what happens.

@deejoe @bobjonkman @bob Happy to be of assistance there.
An additional item to what @bobjonkman wrote:
Part of why Evan P was funding #Identi.ca & #StatusNet mostly out of his own pocket was that he formerly had a VC-funded enterprise behind it, but advertising revenues were weak and users demanded its removal. There were some commercial customers and some individuals that paid, but probably not nearly enough.
He had looked at some #OStatus protocol enhancements that could have improved federation and reduced cost, but many of the component protocols were sponsored by companies like #Google, which was no longer interested in them. -

To be fair, the !StatusNet network that Evan was running became unmanageable -- it cost too much to run, and I think Evan was funding most of it himself (although there were/are a number of paying #StatusNet customers). Evan developed #PumpIO to reduce the number of servers needed to run a federated network, and purposely kept the UI to a minimum to encourage federation. Sadly, that didn't work. Porting identi.ca from StatusNet to PumpIO was intended to introduce people to PumpIO as well as reduce Evan's costs. That partly worked; identi.ca is alive and well as a community, although much reduced from its glory days around 2013. But the #bifurcation did spawn a large number of new StatusNet / !GNUsocial instances, so that was a good thing too. But you're right in that PumpIO never gained widespread traction, the proof of which is in its lack of continued development. In that respect #GNUsocial and !OStatus are more successful than PumpIO -

You're telling me the new people don't remember that #GnuSocial is a failed project which couldn't keep up with #StatusNet :) -

I'm running a personal instance of !GNUsocial for myself (https://gs.jonkman.ca), an old instance of #StatusNet (http://sn.jonkman.ca) that I'm maintaining because it has groups that I want to preserve, a StatusNet instance for @LaurelRusswurm@s.russwurm.com that also has a bunch of groups I want to preserve, and, online #AnyDayNow, a public instance at @KWLUG, my local Linux Users Group (configuration stymied by security settings at a level that prevent webapps from running). Don't join that yet; I may have to nuke it to fix its problems. -

@paulfree14 thanks for the pointer, I've wanted to play with #hubzilla for a while, but it wasn't on my radar.
But! I still want it to be #WordPress. Why? Because I am a WP integrator and hoster, and I want my clients to silently get federated and enjoy it as another feature of WordPress: it just works with the free social web!
At one time I was able to sub to my site and comment with #StatusNet (pre- #GNUSocial).

@stitchxd @lohang At one point, #StatusNet was adding support for many such things. For example, blog posts (which were poorly done, but they were implemented in the code). I believe I've heard others discuss possibly implementing federated forums, but cannot recall whether they were going to be a separate site that just interops with #OStatus networks or an add-on to SN/GS. -

Oh yeah with #splatoon2 launching in like two days if anyone wants me Switch friend code hit me up. I figure demographics have changed a lot since the old days when it was all #statusnet. I'm in America so different regions probably won't work great for lag. -

@simsa0 @elgee @lohang If you're trying to sub from #Mastodon, it is not able to federate with older #StatusNet sites. If you're trying to sub from GS.NO, I'm not sure what the cause is. -
