With #Holos, you can have your identity on your own domain. No server? A simple CNAME record is enough. Already have a server? Point a subdomain to handle #ActivityPub traffic and serve a static JSON file on your root domain.

This is a step toward the same sovereignty #Nostr offers with cryptographic identities, but staying in the #ActivityPub ecosystem you already know.

Domains cost money though?

I feel like this is such an obvious objection that there must be an easy answer for it. Let’s hear it.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@HolosSocial/116286098619535273

The next step with #HolosSocial will be to let you use your root domain as your identity while still using a subdomain for the relay.
Yes, #Holos is kind of like #nostr but with #ActivityPub. The main difference: your data lives on your device, not on a server, and relays remain completely dumb.

@CoolerPseudonym
Our account was set to refuse indexation. Guess what? Holos Discover never indexed a single message from it, while Google and others did. Recently I enabled discovery on the Fedilab account and Holos Discover followed immediately. Holos Discover is purely ActivityPub-based, so your instance settings are the priority.

The source code of #PawFed is now available on #Codeberg. PawFed is a federated map for animal welfare: reports come from the #Fediverse via #ActivityPub mentions, and permanent places like shelters and vets are pulled from OpenStreetMap.

A location is not always required: if you have supplies or food to give away and can ship, just say so.

Found an abandoned animal? Just report it.

How to build a message: https://pawfed.org/tags

Source code: https://codeberg.org/tom79/PawFed

#HolosDiscover just hit 3 million indexed posts.
What matters more than the number: 145k deletions processed, 83k edits tracked, and over 1k opt-outs respected, all in real time.
Respecting people is the priority and the only way to do it right is to be a full #ActivityPub participant, receiving deletions, edits, and opt-outs as they happen. Before indexing anyone, Holos Discover follows their account, so they know they are being indexed and can opt out.

@apps #Holos is so promising, and #holosdiscover as well - I'd hope other web and mobile apps adopt it... and so glad it is here and live still.

@apps purely an FYI, not a call for any action but in case you're interested - a number of your top ten content sources are known spam services, more info here: https://about.iftas.org/library/known-spam-fediverse-services/

@jandi
Yes, that would really help. I will set the priority in the Weblate project for the part used to understand tags inside messages. Thank you for your continuous support on projects :)

#PawFed is not limited to reports about animals found or in distress. You can use it to offer help or ask for it.

Use #offer when you provide help, #request when you need it, #info to share useful information.

Everything works through #ActivityPub. If you delete your original post mentioning @PawFed, the related report is automatically removed from the map. No database ghost. You stay in control of your data. (1/3)

@apps look @julian isn't this sorta what you were just talking about with hashtag combining schemes
