Building ActivityPub

Ghost is federating over ActivityPub to become part of the world’s largest publishing network

Not sure if this has already been posted since it’s kind of old news (early 2024), but I think that’s exciting. I’m currently looking into blog software with nice webgui and I might wait for this to become real. Looking at the announcement page, they seem to take it seriously and there’s continuous merged PRs since April until recently regarding AP on their GitHub.

    Well, you’re here on Lemmy using the ActivityPub protocol. How’s the experience been? Does the filtering fit your needs?

    I realize you might be talking about the server side rather than for users, ie if you were gonna set up your own instance. In which case, what you’re referring to is called “federation/defederation.” My understanding is that you just have to go flip a switch on your backend to filter out a whole instance, a person, a community etc and nobody on your instance will see it anymore.
