@phanpy@hachyderm.io never stops surprising me with small but meaningful UX details... just saw how it shows alt descriptions as footnotes below uploaded media, and i want to do the same in bonfire... chapeau @cheeaun@mastodon.social 🎩
Finally reading Octavia butler
@Bonfire@bonfire.cafe Just as a heads up, this post renders as an audio file for me? Following the link to the source file takes me to the 1.0.3 release announcement
@mavnn@bonfire.mavnn.eu thanks for the heads up! we were testing a new feature, still a few rough edges 😊
We just released Bonfire Social 1.0.3 🔥
Blog post with all the details: bonfirenetworks.org/posts/bo...
It comes with dozens of bug fixes and UX improvements, plus:
- Federated comments embeddable on any web page.
- Deep Ghost integration: SSO, membership tier sync, and automatic article import.
- New dashboard widgets: spotlight, polls closing soon, top discussions.
-
#CalmEmpowerment: a new design pattern that starts with a few sensible defaults, offers a middle layer of common adjustments, and reveals the full options only when you need them. Boundaries and post permissions got this treatment first, more to follow...
-
Modular community rules: a first step in bringing research and co-design with students and researchers at @hci@micro.blogs.princeton.edu into Bonfire, so governance becomes something communities can better define and share, and that others can fork and adapt.
@Bonfire When I tried to run the default Bonfire executables on my device, it crashed with a segfault, and investigating further it seems to be caused because my device lacks AVX instructions. Maybe there's some flag I can use to manually build without AVX support? I was using the version shipped by YunoHost: github.com/YunoHost-Apps/bonfi…
@csolisr@hub.azkware.net ah yeah it probably would have to built for (ideally on) your machine in this case
Terrible moment to learn that #Bonfire, the up-and-coming #ActivityPub implementation, apparently has a hard dependency on #AVX instructions that my home server's chipset physically lacks. I'd have to spend upwards of $400 just to replace my server in order to test it, sigh... @Bonfire
@csolisr@hub.azkware.net Which dependency did you see on AVX? our markdown renderer for example uses it when available but has a fallback which should be enabled automatically when not available (otherwise you can force it with `MDEX_USE_LEGACY_ARTIFACTS=true`. In any case please provide more info or open a bug report.
just discovered another super interesting and needed work done by @s0hw@hci.social and @andresmh@hci.social platform.coop/blog/toward-wo...
"Aiming to shift control of delivery work away from a single entity, OpenCourier is a protocol that defines data formatting and communication across a decentralized network of delivery platforms, couriers, and service requesters. Broadly, we aim to enable an ecosystem (Fig. 1) that centers community-owned delivery platforms, where workers — who we refer to as couriers, given their work providing delivery services — cooperatively manage the platform they are a part of. "

is there any "code of conduct / use Protocol" out there ? (that serialise rules a bit like CC does with picto > articles with modularity) ... could it be used to help on federation mod ? (and also to ease users choose a server more easily than reading a long list of text on each) #moderation #mastodon #activitypub
@olm_e@tchafia.be students in the class led by @s0hw@hci.social and @andresmh@hci.social at hci.princeton.edu have worked on something like this which was previewed at the last #FediForum and will launch in the summer...
@evan @mayel I stand by my positions that an E2EE protocol:
a) should not allow a server to know who is in a conversation, so therefore server-level blocks cannot be applied (unless applied client-side)
b) if a conversation is reported to server admins/moderators, doing that report via E2EE really doesn't gain you anything over just TLS. Server will end up with that information in cleartext at some point. But you do want verifiability of the messages & their ordering and the actor IDs involved, probably a new object type to represent a Conversation.
I tried to address your first point here: github.com/swicg/activitypub...
Not sure I understand why you say "server will end up with that information in cleartext at some point" though?
watching the intro to @Bonfire Mosaic, its looking really good, and see they are making lots of progress with fediverse groups
https://videos.scanlines.xyz/w/hV9wzGzsXvNjgXtVg3uS2i
I really hope they don't introduce new handle semantics tho at I see from the demo they are using &groupname@instance.tld as opposed to !groupname@instance.tld that lemmy is already using and @groupname@instance.tld that most of the rest of the fediverse already supports to some extent

@liaizon@social.wake.st those are just placeholders, our goal is maximum interoperability while also extending what is possible, and we're participating in the W3C groups task force to define how things should work, please weigh in there if you have any suggestions: github.com/swicg/groups/issues
Our @fediforum@mastodon.social demo is up! 🔥
We showed off Bonfire Mosaic and our ongoing work on federated groups and new publisher tools we’ve been co-designing with jacobin.de, including federated discussion threads that can be embedded on their existing website.
Built on our modular framework for community-governed digital spaces.
Watch 👉 spectra.video/w/hV9wzGzsXvNj...
You can read more about our work on groups in this previous blog post: bonfirenetworks.org/posts/wh...
And if you're an #ActivityPub developer who's interested, please join the W3C task force discussions: github.com/swicg/groups/issues
@Bonfire @fediforum Hi there, any chance you will prohibit the use of #AI in code contributions?
Thanks for asking, it's something we're taking seriously. We're working on an AI policy for the project but want to do it thoughtfully and with care rather than rush something out, please bear with us.

@lauti Trying to leave a comment, but Codeberg's bugging out on me right now.
“Hashtags are represented as type Hashtag just like mastodon does it. Is there a fep for this?”
Hashtag is additionally specified as a type in a Community Group draft report on miscellaneous terms: https://swicg.github.io/miscellany/#Hashtag
It might get added to a 1.1 version of a proper W3C standard (AS-vocab I assume) now that the Working Group is active again.
@julian@fietkau.social Thank you very much for the review and answering the Hashtag question 🙏
And yeah codeberg seems to have some troubles lately..
If you are up for another review, we have a rough implementation for the instance actor with a basic inbox that handles follow and unfollow: codeberg.org/Klasse-Methode/...
We are a little bit late to the party, but on the 1. May we celebrated #lauti's first anniversary 🥳.
This year was crazy, we got in touch with so many amazing people a long the way. We did our first talk at the #39c3 self organized session of @techfrombelow@chaos.social
We visited #fosdem with our friends from @Bonfire where they announced our collaboration working on #events in the #fediverse.
We are just getting started, SSO is around the corner and we are working on #activitypub at the moment.
For more updates take a look at our last blog post

a great article by @thisismissem@hachyderm.io on going beyond binary approach to federation...
" > However, we've been presented with a false dichotomy here: we don't need to operate in a world where we either allow everything until blocked, or block everything until we allow it. There are other ways that we can look at federation management. Some of these include Consent Based Federation, where a moderator or administrator has to review and approve a server before accepting federation (or denying it), or models that resemble a firewall on a computer or server: you'd don't just have to accept or deny federation, but you can also apply filters to the federation between your server and another."

we are looking into your #Go #Activitypub library to implement federation in #LAUTI
One thing we need to do is implement the #FEP 8a8e by @linos@graz.social
Do you have time for a quick call to get an overview?
@linos@graz.social We got a first version implemented at codeberg.org/Klasse-Methode/...
Reviews by anyone with #activitypub knowledge is highly appreciated 🙏
