There's now a proper rendered web interface for FEPs at https://fediverse.codeberg.page/fep/fep/*/, which is much nicer to read than the raw Markdown source on Codeberg. But the canonical permalink, https://w3id.org/fep/*, still redirects to the Markdown file rather than the rendered page.

Would it make sense to update the w3id.org redirect to point to the rendered version instead? It seems like the better experience for anyone following a FEP link, and arguably what a “permanent” link should resolve to—something human-readable.

I'm not sure who manages the w3id.org/fep/ redirect configuration. (It lives in the perma-id/w3id.org GitHub repo, so it would just be a PR, but I'd want to get community consensus first rather than just send one in unilaterally.)

#fedidev #fep #fediverse #ActivityPub

I’m building a new tool and looking for volunteers to test it! A #fediverse linktree.

It’s designed for two types of people:

Normies / newcomers – Think of it like a free, privacy-respecting Linktree. No trackers, no ads. But here's the cool par: it's a Trojan horse for the fediverse. Your profile link is itself an ActivityPub actor. That means people can interact with it directly in the fediverse, and it encourages exploration of open platforms.

Fediverse users, If you have multiple accounts ( #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, Loops, a federated blog…), you know the struggle: sometimes you just want one persona to follow. This tool gives you that. It doesn’t post on its own (read-only), but it boosts all your other accounts and even has its own #ActivityPub inbox. PLUS it can receive and show your badges issued by @badgefed !

Interested in testing? Reply here.

Hey everyone,

@casey and @aseelfromgz had the honour of speaking to four families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Saja Gaza (@saiashshsh18)
• DiaaGaza (@DiaaMahmoud97)
• Abdulrahman and my family🇵🇸🍉 (@abdulrahmanandmyfamily)
• Hadeel Diaa (@Hadeel2004)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

According to the listings of @sabrinkmann we have nearly 60 #Mastodon accounts of #universities in Germany
👉 https://mastodon-listen.playground.54gradsoftware.de/
In addition, there are nearly 150 #research #institutes / organisations
👉 https://mastodon-listen.playground.54gradsoftware.de/?liste=institute-DE
Their followers sum up to exceed 200k and they are constantly growing.

Recently, we realized that 4 #universities are also acitve on #PeerTube
👉 https://bewegung.social/@neuSoM/116090482941383612
It can thus be concluded, that Mastodon / the #Fediverse became a central pillar in #SciComm in #Germany.

@_elena @Tutanota it was a good article but #fediverse deserves more attention than a simple mention of Mastodon. Also I don't like the name "W" xd.

Started laying out a rough plan for implementing FEP-ef61: Portable Objects in #Fedify—server-independent #ActivityPub identities backed by #DIDs, multi-server replication, and client-side signing. It's going to be a long road (13 tasks across 5 phases, with a few open questions that need answering before we even begin), but I think it's worth doing right.
