@tom I can also send you an invite code.

There's a chapter on the social API in the ActivityPub book.

@box464 @tom awesome! Make sure to add issues or PRs as you come up with ideas.

@tom there's a discussion here

Which ActivityPub applications support Client-to-Server (C2S)?

@evan I signed up to get notified for the print edition a few months ago, still prefer actually holding physical books haha

@tom OK!

@tom I basically follow actors and that's how seeing posts by others in your /inbox works.

The frontend loads stuff directly through JavaScript fetch and needs all the mechanisms of that to work (and I imagine what you see might be things failing to load due to CORS rules being too restrictive on remote Mastodon instances)

I am not aware of any issues with receiving activities though, and in this process the objects themselves should be fully dereferenced to local copies.

I'll add a note about BOX compilation. Thanx.

@tom looking at the post of mine you linked, I realize you're probably thinking of regular object discovery, and there isn't any mechanism for it yet, or for viewing remote objects that haven't reached your inbox.

@julian yes, two of them:

https://rattlehead.bruta.link < where a bot posts daily metal releases scraped from the internet

https://marius.federated.id < where I write a bit about stuff and play with more expressive ActivityPub objects.

@mariusor sorry I meant the reverse behavior, viewing Oni users/activities from my mastodon instance (or from mastodon.social) not viewing remote activities from oni

I.e. searching for https://marius.federated.id/outbox/1725894299052/object doesn't pull up the object in mastodon (and searching for the user doesn't bring that up either)

@tom I understand.

Indeed in the past two/three weeks I must have deployed something (or Mastodon made some changes) that regular objects posted by ONI aren't findable any more. The problem is that I don't have a development setup for mastodon on which to test what the problem is.

However the actors should still be available.
