@django Great talk! I’m a huge advocate for C2S and would love to see it happen. It’s one of the biggest missed opportunities for ActivityPub, and we could do some really incredible things with it.
For things like notifications, I almost wonder whether it would be useful to create a notification activity object? Something like that might give developers what they need for standard notifications across clients, with the server accounting for Read / Unread state.
In the talk I shoutout some projects who are supporting the ActivityPub API
One glaring omission is the FedBox/Oni projects by @mariusor, who I have been working with over the past while!
I also mention a bunch awesome Fediverse projects which have developed their own API, no shade on them, the spec imho is incredibly bare. I quote @Gargron on that one.
I end the talk with an invitation for devs and non-developers alike to submit some user-stories about what they would want from a general AP client
@django I erm... can't seem to run the video on the page.
