Emelia 👸🏻<p>Huh, that's interesting, Lemmy doesn't seem to publish if an account has been suspended via ActivityPub, and still returns an Actor document for a banned account.</p><p>Leading to a new AP T&amp;S issue: <a href="https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-trust-and-safety/issues/95" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/swicg/activitypub-t</span><span class="invisible">rust-and-safety/issues/95</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/activitypub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>activitypub</span></a></p>

Hamish Campbell<p><strong>Conversations on Compost, Bridges, and the Future</strong></p> <p>A few recent conversations remind me: we’ve already done the work of building alternatives. Twenty years of grassroots tech, radical process, and messy social organizing. The trouble is, that soil has been hollowed out, scattered, exhausted, and composted into the #dotconsOur current mission isn’t to “start from scratch,” but to rebuild bridges, spread compost, and replenish the soil. That’s why I keep coming back to this moment, the bridging of the #openweb back into #mainstream […]</p> <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/conversations-on-compost-bridges-and-the-future/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/conversatio</span><span class="invisible">ns-on-compost-bridges-and-the-future/</span></a></p>

Emelia 👸🏻<p>I should also note that I'm not the only frequent contributor to various fediverse projects who is struggling to make ends meet. I know of at least a half dozen other independent developers who do a tonne of work in standards and figuring stuff out for the fediverse who don't have stable income from well-paid jobs to rely upon.</p><p>So my comment wasn't me asking for money from someone, but rather, just saying that there's folks that have expertise in making changes, and they could be hired to make the changes you want to see in a reasonable manner.</p><p>We cannot rely on free labour to advance the fediverse. We live in a capitalist society, so folks need money to pay their rent, buy food and frankly exist.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/activitypub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>activitypub</span></a></p>

ActivityPub for WordPress<p><strong>7.1.0 — Polishing&nbsp;Tables</strong></p> <p>This release introduces a redesigned Followers table that’s easier to navigate and customize—hide columns, change how many entries you see, or remove followers directly. Migrations are now simpler: just paste in a WebFinger ID or profile URL, and the plugin takes care of the rest. We’ve also fixed an issue where old, unfederated posts could be mistakenly re-sent—those will now stay quiet unless they’re recent. Plus, lots of behind-the-scenes improvements for a smoother experience.</p> <p><a href="https://activitypub.blog/2025/07/23/7-1-0-polishing-tables/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">activitypub.blog/2025/07/23/7-</span><span class="invisible">1-0-polishing-tables/</span></a></p>
