microhive.social is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Can I use #Peertube and #Lemmy and other #ActivityPub services using my #Mastodon account?
Or do I need an account for every additional service I want to interact with?
Implemented more scopes to match other ActivityPub implementations (public, unlisted, followers-only and direct message) (contributed by byte).
New icons showing instance and actor failures.
Mastodon API: Added remote accounts follow metrics and statuses when viewing profiles (contributed by Stefano Marinelli), fixed post deletion.
Fixed outbox collection (contributed by byte).
New file FEDERATION.md (contributed by andypiper).
Updated Czech, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese translations (contributed by pmjv and daltux).
Fixed manpage typos (contributed by r-ricci).

Meet Loops — a new, federated TikTok alternative that’s open-source and self-hosted.
Every movement begins with a spark.
Loops is that spark — breaking down the walls built around creativity and replacing them with doors anyone can open, explore, and build upon.
Join us and spread the word!
Big news! 🎉
Loops federation is working beautifully!
Want proof?

Spread the word, the fediverse now has an open source TikTok alternative that is truly decentralized.
I've been busy wrapping up the final parts of Loops ActivityPub federation!
We will ship with two modes (Open and Lockdown), the latter allowing you to restrict federation with allowed instances only (and enforced via AuthorizedFetch)
You can also disable Federation support
I'll have a better ETA this weekend after some more testing ✨
Thanks to phpstan, this may even ship this weekend 🚀
Building healthy federated communities requires the right tools.
Loops federation controls will give admins:
🛡️ Powerful federation modes (Open, Moderated, Trusted, Lockdown)
🛡️ Granular domain permissions
🛡️ Per-user activity controls
🛡️ Advanced moderation features
🛡️ Internal Audit Log to keep admins/mods accountable
Empowering admins to create safer spaces in the fediverse, shipping soon! ✨
Loops federation update:
I just finished the admin dashboard updates for federation support!
Loops will make it really easy to manage, just take a look at this demo ✨
I think we're ready. Stay tuned.
After receiving a follow confirmation, a bunch of posts from that account are requested and inserted into the timeline as context.
Continuously failing instances are marked as broken after a given number of days (see snac(8) on how to tune this counter). Incoming activity from any of these instances resets the counter.
Fixed a nasty bug that incorrectly deleted private local posts in certain cases.
Scheduled posts can now be sent from the command line (see snac(1) for more information on how to do it).
Docker: add timezone, new examples for building and complete Swarm mode stack with Traefik (contributed by daltux).
Fixed timezone names (contributed by dharmik).
Documented the update command (contributed by xvello).

While others build walled gardens, we're preparing to tear down walls.
As TikTok creates separate US and global apps, we're putting the finishing touches on ActivityPub integration in Loops.
Soon you'll share your loops across the entire fediverse - no borders, no corporate silos.
The future is federated. 🌐
Revolutionary idea: What if social media platforms actually let you control your data?
@loops does, with full data exports, retention controls & opt-in analytics.
The future of social is open-source ❤️
(and federated 🚀)
Non "più utili alla crescita" bensì "più probabili nei sistemi in crescita".
Un altro buon esempio è costituito dai tumori, le cui cellule mutano in modo imprevedibile: il tumore cresce più rapidamente del tessuto ospitante perché svincolato dall'ordine impresso nel DNA originale.
Nota che la crescita di cui parlo non è necessariamente positiva: l'impero romano all'apice della sua estensione era talmente fragile da finire in pezzi sotto la pressione di "barbari"; i sistemi unix hanno raggiunto complessità insostenibili che causano inevitabili vulnerabilità etc...
Allo stesso modo una dimensione ridotta può essere positiva: io per esempio ti sto scrivendo tramite #snac2, un nodo #ActivityPub scritto in C, piccolo ed efficiente.
"Loops isn't open source"
Now it is. Enjoy ✨
https://github.com/joinloops/loops-server/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.1
Feast yourself on these fantastic features
The language in which a post is written can now be set from the UI; you must configure the list of languages you usually post in in the User Settings.
Added support for bullet points in posts (lines starting with an asterisk or a hyphen, plus a space).
Added Dutch (nl_NL) translation (contributed by martijndeb).
Added Western Frisian (fy_NL) translation (contributed by martijndeb).
Mastodon API: Fixed repeated entries in timelines.
Added nodeinfo 2.1 support.
Fixed boosts from the command line not showing in the public timeline (contributed by xvello).
Updated several language files (contributed by zen and daltux).
Retrieving a post's replies is now possible via ActivityPub.

Função muito supimpa do #SNAC que só recentemente constatei como é útil: podemos pôr no texto a ligação para uma imagem externa, que ele a transforma em anexo da "atividade" (a publicação no #ActivityPub), sem precisar armazená-la! Pode notar que essa foto do Locutus — Cap. Picard (Patrick Stewart) assimilado pelos Borg — é descarregada diretamente da Wikimedia Commons! 
Não sei se outros sistemas, mesmo os que também já suportam #Markdown, fazem isso! Quem aí pode dizer?
