#PieFed just added a multi-reddit feature, which we're calling "Feeds". It combines multiple Communities (actors of type "Group" in ActivityPub) into one.

Feeds can be followed from other PieFed instances, which will subscribe the follower to all the communities in the feed.

Try it out at https://piefed.social/feeds

It's similar to PieFed's concept of a Topic https://piefed.social/topics, except topics are maintained by the instance admins. Feeds are crowdsourced and federated topics.

@paul No, because AP is only used for server to server communication, not server to client. A web browser is always a client.

AP technically does allow for server to client but most apps have found it easier to use their own API for that and reserve AP for federation only.

#ActivityPub

I want to love #Codeberg but the site is down way way too often. If I create my own #Forgejo instance would it be more reliable or less?

Is the instability due to the software or just because too many people use that instance?

It took 4 months and 50 code commits, but my federated version of reddit (written in #python) can now follow and be followed by instances of #kbin and #lemmy!

Getting #ActivityPub working has been ... a journey.

@jensimmons Is there a list of service providers who can help them set up an instance?

@drskyskull Remember when George W Bush was the worst president? Ahh, good times.
