Announcing Mitra Mini v0.1.0
Mitra Mini is an ActivityPub client that implements nomadic identity. It has become stable enough that I decided to cut the first release.
The basic features have been implemented: posts, reposts, likes. For more information, check the project's readme:
https://codeberg.org/silverpill/minimitra
It all started nearly four years ago with a vague idea that linking cryptographic keys to #ActivityPub actors could unlock decentralized identity in Fediverse. Eventually, the solution was discovered, and implemented by several projects, but these implementations were servers, not clients. Now there is finally a client, and the design has been proven to work well.
Anyone here thinking of building a few Fediverse bots? I would be interested to hear about them.
And this might be useful to you:

@hakendran Sind #ActivityPub und #ATProto wirklich miteinander vergleichbar?!
@janvlug @EUCommission between Eurostat, the ECB and other institutions it would be easy to setup #activitypub servers and not just for microblogging. E.g., might be interesting to explore dissemination / federation of official statistics in #sdmx json format (an extension to the protocol)
My little #ActivityBot now supports #ActivityPub #Hashtags!
Today "ActivityStreams: Where do you want to go to today?" might be a slogan we borrowed from Microsoft.
The question is whether #ActivityStreams should be used - besides all the things it is already being used for - to also map to file systems.
The #LinkedData nature of #ActivityPub is generally shunned in favor of plain #JSON. That in itself is fine, as long as:
a) information still represents valid #JSONLD.
b) information models still follow data modeling best practices.
c) information models are designed with #interoperability in mind.
Not saying your approach is good or bad, just observing that everyone mapping and overloading their own app-specific semantics to the poor AS vocab looks to me a worst-practice. We can get away with it, as we made post-facto interop the poor man's accepted practice, lacking more rigorous extension process and guidance.
There are likely existing standardized ontologies.
I am outputting ActivityPub/ActivityStreams content for the listing of what is in a directory.
Think of it as the AP/AS version of output from the `ls` command
AP/AS has a whole bunch of stuff that can be used to represents files. Even sub-types of files

And, while AP/AS has 'Collection' (and 'CollectionPage') —

AP/AS doesn't have a 'Directory' type (as a sub-type of 'Collection')

Any recommendations on where to begin if I, someone with a background in game development, wanted to start messing around with ActivityPub stuff in my free time?

Joe is brilliant; I was but a ghost. Really excited to start / continue the conversation about what news and #atproto / #activitypub protocol developers can build *together*.

#Holos started at the end of 2025. A full #ActivityPub server now runs on your phone, with the ability to use your own domain as your identity, #E2EE DMs via Signal Protocol, zero-knowledge encrypted backup, #ActivityPub media served from your own cloud, a tailored timeline based on your interests thanks to #HolosDiscover, and the ability to switch views depending on your mood or the content you want to browse. Thank you for your feedback and support that helped to go through these steps.
Friends, if you haven't already, it would be a big favour to me if you could enable tags.pub to boost your public tagged posts.
Just follow @_followback . It will follow you back, and when you make a post with a hashtag in it, the server will boost your post from the appropriate hashtag.
If you're interested in any topics, like @nokings , follow that account to get posts with that hashtag from across the Fediverse.
Let me know how it works for you!
