When articles, videos and podcasts are native #ActivityPub, maybe people will just boost them directly instead of everybody writing their own posts linking to them. I really wish quote boosts had this functionality in mind. Same with podcatchers, video players and reader apps in the future. Show me what's most boosted in my social graph of the content type you're designed for.
Making all media management better and attention more democratically allocated is the "killer app" of the #SocialWeb.

The best example of why #ActivityPub isn't just #RSS is podcasting. Podcasts don't support boosts and thus are not social media imo, even though the medium is a great example of decentralized media. But I can't easily recommend a great episode to others, or see the episodes most recommended by the people I follow. I want it to be easier to make the best shows go viral.
how do we fix that?

7.3.0 – Ctrl+Fed+Delete
Say hello to smoother moderation and a proper goodbye to old accounts. ActivityPub for WordPress 7.3.0 lets you block, filter, and even fully delete your presence from the Fediverse—site-wide or user-by-user. Whether you’re cleaning house or just want more control, this update makes managing your Fediverse footprint easier than ever.
Flag Activity
Is there any information anywhere on how the Flag activity is used in practice?
As ever, the spec only tells me that it exists; it doesn't say anything about what it contains, where it gets delivered to, how the recipient processes it, etc.
Maybe I could find out more by setting up some test instances and experimenting with it, or by trying to trawl through various repositories to find the relevant source code - but it seems a lot quicker to just ask.

I have, once again, expanded my list of domain extensions I would recommend:
.am (Armenia)
.at (Austria)
.be (Belgium)
.bz (Belize)
.cc (Cocos Islands)
.ch (Switzerland)
.co (Colombia)
.cz (Czech Republic)
.dk (Denmark)
.fi (Finland)
.ge (Georgia)
.is (Iceland)
.li (Liechtenstein)
.me (Montenegro)
.nl (Netherlands)
.nu (Niue)
.se (Sweden)
.to (Tonga)
.tv (Tuvalu)
.tw (Taiwan)
.ws (Samoa)
All of these countries have strong protections for freedom of speech, including speech that defends and promotes minority rights — such as LGBTQ+ rights. Domain registration is open to everyone... You don’t need to be a citizen or own a business in any of these countries.

Occasionally, during my free time, I have been generating a list of Fedi sites, that use non-US domain names.
https://codeberg.org/Linux-Is-Best/The_Fediverse_Outside_United_States/src/branch/main/Index.md
Generally speaking, assuming they're wise enough to also use non-US hosting (as everyone should), that can place them outside U.S. Jurisdiction.
