@julian wonderful! it should be about 7! I will post an event soonish too I will try to remember to tag you!
do these sort of inter-instance links have a name or FEP? I am impressed that you can search for them from within Mastodon and Akkoma and have the post actually show up in (haven't tried other software to check support but it would be interesting)

I've come to take the Markov chain bots clogging my instance's local timeline as a #WeeklyTarotReading of sorts from the eldritch lovecraftian god known as software. A randomised pseudo-guidance for the clinically bored (me) and the spiritually bereft (also me).
Let's see how this turns out!

@julian oh wow your presenting sciop (https://ctalx.c-base.org/fediday-2026/talk/PJCYN3/)! Psyched to see that! Yeah I am gonna orga this thing at night on the last day of fediday (I think it ends at 14 and the thing I will do will be a few hours later at night in a different part of town, was not planned, there's just some folks in town who I wanted to get talk to anyway so it worked out like that
ctalx.c-base.orgSciOp and decentralized research data rescue FediDay 2026SciOp is an open source project aiming to decentralize research data hosting through BitTorrent and ActivityPub, so that the distribution and long-term archival of endangered research data sets can be shared between institutions and individual volunteers. In this presentation, we will show how SciOp is planning to use ActivityPub to coordinate between instances and to interact with the fediverse at large. It turns out that ActivityPub can be more than just social networking.Replying to @kopper@not-brain.d.on-t.work
@kopper I will continue to follow you for your offkilter sad posts and hope the occasional AP quip shines thru

@tbernard do you have any regrets about the name Boiling the Ocean? It has a nice ring to it, and it's memorable so it seems to work as a name quite well.

@benpate I was mostly reporting in case you didn't know and wanted to fix, I was just checking the state of things
I am hosting another fediverse talky eventy thingy in September and already have two people presenting awesome things, so now my question is still do I keep using the stupidly long name Berlin Federated Network Exploration Circle aka BeFeNeEC (pronounced beef neck or beefy niece or bifi nice or...) Or come up with a new name for the event. I think this will be the 5th edition?

Now Haze @nebuleto introduces ActivityPlug, a library and proxy API server that wraps different ActivityPub server APIs behind one consistent interface.

Thanks to everyone who caught my talk, I just wanted ruby annotations: writing in dead scripts on the living fediverse, at @COSCUP 2026 today! It was great seeing you in the Fediverse & Social Web track. Here are the slides.

fediverse-ruby-coscup-2026.hongminhee.codefloe.pageI just wanted ruby annotations: writing in dead scripts on the living fediverse - Slidev"Koreans used to mix [hanja] (漢字; Chinese characters) into Korean prose, much as Japanese still mixes kanji and kana. The style is called [Korean mixed script] (國漢文混用體). Almost nobody writes this way anymore. I do.\n\nWhen I wanted to post this way on the fediverse, I ran into a small but stubborn problem: [`<ruby>` annotations][ruby], the HTML feature that puts pronunciation guides above or beside characters, were stripped by the major servers I tried. I filed an issue against [Mastodon]. It sat there for a long time. At some point, “maybe I should run my own server” somehow became “maybe I should implement [ActivityPub] myself.”\n\nActivityPub is not simple. [JSON-LD] alone has several ways to say the same thing. Then come HTTP Signatures, WebFinger, NodeInfo, inbox forwarding, and the small incompatibilities that only become obvious when Mastodon and Misskey disagree. Before building the server I wanted, I built [Fedify]: a TypeScript framework that keeps most of that protocol plumb
