Both Mastodon and Bluesky offer decentralized alternatives, but only one puts users first. While Bluesky’s VC-backed model serves shareholder interests, Mastodon’s nonprofit structure safeguards a truly open internet. The future of social media shouldn’t be for sale.

I've been wrestling with implementing content support in Hackers' Pub, our -powered platform for software engineers.


While ActivityPub theoretically supports multilingual content through the contentMap property, the reality is that most server implementations (Mastodon, Misskey, etc.) don't properly handle this content as of April 2025. This creates a significant challenge for us.


We want our users to share their knowledge in multiple languages, but we need to ensure compatibility with existing ActivityPub servers. I'm considering several approaches:



  1. Creating separate posts for each language with clear language indicators, linking them through inReplyTo relationships (so translations appear as replies to the original post)

  2. Using the primary language in content while storing translations in contentMap

  3. Adding "View in other languages" links at the bottom of each post

  4. Implementing inline language dividers that degrade gracefully on non-supporting servers, for example:
    <div lang="en">
    <h3>English</h3>
    <p>This is the English content…</p>
    </div>
    <hr>
    <div lang="ko">
    <h3>한국어</h3>
    <p>한국어 내용입니다…</p>
    </div>



I'm leaning toward a hybrid approach—showing content in the user's preferred language when possible while providing easy access to other language versions.


Has anyone tackled this problem effectively? I'd love to hear about your experiences or ideas for making multilingual content work well in the fediverse, especially when dealing with server implementations that don't fully support ActivityPub's multilingual features.

Why should Digg.com integrate with the ?

Tell me!

I have been picked for a group of volunteers to give feedback to the new developers. I have suggested building Digg around . I have gotten pushback from the other volunteers stating that subject-forum fediverse places ( lemmy etc ) have low traffic.

Please give me ideas about why the Fediverse would be beneficial to Digg.

I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.75 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

Added support for scheduled posts (for this to work correctly, users will have to set their time zone, see below).

The user can now select a working time zone. This will be used to correctly parse the local date and time of a scheduled post.

Fixed incorrect poll vote format, which was causing problems in platforms like GotoSocial.

Mastodon API: added support for /api/v1/instance/peers.

Added a new snac-admin helper script (contributed by shtrophic).

In the web UI, posts are separated by the <hr hidden> tag; it's invisible in graphical browsers, but it separates post clearly in text-based browsers.

Some Finnish, Spanish, Czech and Russian translation updates and fixes.

I wish allowed for a single identity to be used on myltiple services.

I don't want to create a mastodon account AND a loops account AND a pixelfed account AND a lemmy account. Why can't I just have @res260? :(

If AP steals one idea from , it should be this.

Starting to feel, more and more, like I need to build my own #ActivityPub thing. This book sounds like a good foundation to build off of. Authored by @evan@cosocial.ca.
