@lovingisliving I was playing with https://mackinac.social yesterday, it is also a dual protocol client thats doing some interesting things and being made with a heavy scoop of AI
@lovingisliving thanks for the answer! I am not entirely opposed to using vibecoded software, but have been seeing a ton of new fediverse clients and servers and tools being released recently that are vibecoded and have really basic misunderstandings of how everything works and fits together, so it feels like the most pressing question to ask when I see a new piece of software released these days
@lovingisliving open source? are *you* writing it or vibe coding it?
#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/
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!
@tchambers @joe great idea!
I think it's a really interesting question of how much of the Fediverse needs to be providing data to tags.pub.
I think this might be an interesting network science problem. I'll do some math and let you know!
@evan I read years ago that multi-word tags should be done in CamelCase, for the benefit of screenreaders. So when I take my posts, I'm careful to do so. It appears however that tags.pub lowercases all my tags.
I understand that it shouldn't create separate accounts for tags that vary only by capitalisation, but when creating a new account, why not preserve the capitalisation of the original tag?

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.
@jdp23 Are they also using Bluesky's servers for DMs, since those are stored off-protocol?
Or do non-Bluesky AppViews just don't have DMs? (Or whichever part of the stack is responsible for that.)
@jdp23 Looks a bit involved. Interesting read, though, thank you for sharing!

Sorry was a day today.
The web is more tumblr inspired, but the mobile app has a different design and you may enjoy that one instead.
The app is made by a different person with different design ideas!
@jaredwhite Yes, I think that's the big question, whether the larger Atmosphere will survive Bluesky's inevitable enshittification. A year ago, I would've said, probably not.
Today, I don't know. Maybe?
