Copying my comment from the cross-post. Anyone here know enough about ActivityPub to know how much work it will be to make it interoperate nicely with Lemmy in addition to Mastodon?

Looks like it’s still a WIP. lemmy.world says that it can’t find the user, but my instance shows his profile:

midwest.social/u/dansup@loops.video

If you click on the full username, you get redirect to this page, which is the raw ActivityPub profile:

loops.video/ap/user/1

  "@context": [
    "https://w3id.org/security/v1",

      "manuallyApprovesFollowers": "as:manuallyApprovesFollowers",

    }
  ],

I don't know how helpful this is, but I can get to the profile thru my instance (mbin) but cannot successfully follow. I don't even know how to look around. Maybe tomorrow, it doesn't look like anything has matriculated yet.

Given the JSON output from the loops.video side, Dansup configured their profile to manuallyApprovesFollowers, that’s why accounts cannot successfully follow their profile.

😬 well I may or may not have clicked follow a few times to confirm...

Thanks for that clarification 🫣

I wish the videos defaulted to sound off. But I am down for the format.

I thought it was ALWAYS part of the fediverse. Am I going crazy? I thought that was the whole point of this thing. Tiktok for the fediverse.

…AM I GOING CRAZY!!!

Not going crazy. It’s always been intended to be part of the Fediverse, it’s just under heavy development and adding ActivityPub support is something the dev is working on right now.

Huh. Seems pretty expansive - @dansup, any comment?

syd@lemy.lol on 18 Dec 12:24 collapse

So let’s say, if I post my a$$ accidentally; they can use, sell, broadcast, advertise, reproduce, resell and publicly perform it?

They can also incorporate your ass into other works in case they want to create a butt collage
