@benpate If you don't particularly feel like getting deep into it, I can just ping you when the FEP is up in the public repository as a draft, if you want. There'll be the normal public feedback period after it's at a point where all the important parts are in place.

Right now I'm looking for close collaboration on architecture, impact analysis, maybe UI recommendations, and general writing. If that doesn't sound appealing then no worries.

@julian@activitypub.space if you want in on this let me know! 🙂

@julian @FediTips @benpate @stefan Thank you for asking me to be involved.

Like Stefan my understanding of AP is rather shallow. Perhaps you also want to loop in @jdp23

@stefan The GTS docs already do a good job covering most implementation details. (Which is why I was hoping this could be done with a glorified copy&paste, oh well. 😅) But there are actually some loadbearing TBDs still in there, so there is architectural work to do, plus sections on consequences & limitations, UI recommendations and such.

As we speak it's a solo effort, so if we get a few people together, I guess we start a chat room and a shared live document. 🙂

@FediTips @onepict @benpate

@julian Also, I presume you know about https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/fep-5624-per-object-reply-control-policies/2723?

p.s. Admins should try activating Secure Mode

Secure Mode (aka Authorized Fetch) is a setting on Mastodon that admins can activate which makes blocks MUCH more effective.

It's off by default due to historical technical issues, but it works really well nowadays. I'd highly recommend admins at least try it, more info at https://fedi.tips/authorized-fetch

(It had a reputation for affecting compatibility and resources, but at least on my server it has run totally fine for years.)
