Hashtags have become an important tool for organising topic-related posts in all major social networks, even having managed to spark social movements like #MeToo. In federated social networks, unfortunately so far the view on all posts of a hashta...

We're building out one idea of what federated blogging could look like with separate ActivityPub-powered platforms, WriteFreely and Read.as – one for writing and and one for reading.Beyond the software, we're also offering hosting services and...

[Spritely](https://spritelyproject.org) is a laboratory-project to incubate tools for the future of the fediverse, working on such things as Goblins (distributed programming), Porta-Bella (Distributed Storage), improved security for user interface designs, etc.See live updates and demonstrations from the Spritely project and hear how these incubated technologies could help pave positive futures for the fediverse.

We are a wide affinity group working to reboot the global indymedia network using modern federated protocols such as #activitypub. This reboot will be based on the OMN project code.What is the OMN (Open Media Network):The project is to shift power to the producers and consumers of media. It’s about good UI and simple empowering #KISS tools to move content, by categorising it with a grassroots folksonomy. This simple approach is balanced by shared site level syntax for the complex crew.In the end it’s about bringing trust back into news.Hamish Campbellhttps://unite.openworlds.info/explore/organizationsBackground http://hamishcampbell.com/index.php/tag/indymedia/

A design approach to interoperabilityredaktor becomes inherently-social website building software capable of serving website-building needs of institutions, journalist organizations, citizen journalism and photo/film documentary.We are currently building a generic UI supporting the entirety of the client portion of the client to server protocol.In a CMS world no information should be hidden by the UI but it must be well-arranged.Let's talk and about how we can build conformance, generic servers and patterns for diverse clients together!This piece will identify repeating problems and misconceptions from socialhub and explore• what the concept of a generic ActivityPub conformant server means• how the client to server protocol helps us and what patterns are involved• how we can design, code and work together in perfect federated harmonySebastian Lasse@sl007@mastodon.social

including Jessica Tallon, Amy Guy, Evan Prodromou, and Erin Shepherdmoderated by Christopher Lemmer-WebberActivityPub is now a widely adopted standard... but how did it become a standard in the first place?Hear about the process of getting ActivityPub all the way to W3C Recommendation status from the people who made it happen, as well as the history that lead to the decision to try and make ActivityPub a standard in the first place! This will be a panel of editors and authors of the ActivityPub protocol.

From UseNet to ActivityPub, every protocol solves the same problems over again. - How do we discover nodes? - How do we deal with network partitions? - How do we define bad behavior and how do we prevent it?The algorithms which solve these problems are present in almost every decentralized protocol. They are also famous for being very difficult to get right!In this lecture I will to propose an alternative. Why can’t we let the database do the replication and stick to writing the rules? When a node is a finite state automaton, all we need is an SQL-like language to define the set of all legal state transitions.

[SkoHub](https://skohub.io) implements an approach to resource discovery in a federated environment that is based on subscription and push notification instead of crawling, indexing and search.To enable this, it combines ActivityPub with SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organization Systems), a long-lived W3C standard for publishing classifications, thesauri and other controlled vocabularies on the web. The core idea is to make the terms of a Knowledge Organization Systems ActivityPub actors. Thus, people can follow topics and receive notifications about newly published resources via a topic-based channel. The initial SkoHub project has been carried out in 2019/20 by the hbz in cooperation with graphthinking GmbH.Initially, SkoHub was targeted at educators and learners who want to publish and share Open Educational Resources (OER) on the web. Traditional approaches for resource discovery of open content are usually based on archives containing published documents plus metadata. Complementary to this approach, SkoHub takes into account that educational and scholarly resources can be found all over the web and thus a web-centric approach to resource discovery is pursued.But SkoHub could also play an important role in the fediverse at large for addressing the problem of finding relevant content in a decentralized infrastructure. For example, PeerTube instances could publish their videos to a shared classification and thus be able to present to users resources from all over the fediverse, even without beforehand knowing all the other instances.Adrian Pohl, literarymachine

Questions & Answer Session forhttps://conf.tube/videos/watch/d8c8ed69-79f0-4987-bafe-84c01f38f966In the summer of 2019, the alt-right social network Gab migrated to the decentralized "Fediverse" of social networks after being booted from mainstream financial services and hosting solutions. Almost immediately, Gab was met by a dedicated movement to isolate it. The movement was largely successful; within a year, the Gab CTO announced they would leave the Fediverse. This talk will cover how moderators, activists, and developers in the Fediverse used human moderators, strong moderation tools, representative codes of conduct, and no small amount of organization to promote healthy online spaces.We’ll review how some of the challenges faced by centralized platforms, which struggle with their own size and scale, have been addressed in networks of smaller, community run, more moderated servers. In the debate over how to make a healthier internet, the open platforms and open protocols in the model of the Fediverse may have some of the best resources to isolate bad actors, including Gab.Derek Caelin is an Innovation and Data Specialist at Counterpart International (CPI) with experience in open source technology and social media. He has helped activists deploy technology for social good at CPI, PeaceTech Lab, and the United States Institute of Peace. In writing this article, Derek spoke with 80 people, primarily on Mastodon, including 12 interviews of Fediverse administrators and moderators as well as hate speech monitors and experts in dangerous speech. He also conducted a survey of Fediverse users with 670 respondents.Derek Caelin@Argus@mastodon.technology
