Threadverse Working Group is formed

At this year's FediForum one of the breakout sessions centred around the Theadiverse, the subset of ActivityPub-enabled applications built around a group-centric model of content representation.

The main outcome of the meeting involved the genesis of an informal working group for the threadiverse, in order to align our disparate implementations toward a common path.

If you're developer of a threadverse app/platform and interested in being involved, read more at https://mastodon.social/@julian@community.nodebb.org/112124227775597261 or https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17908/threadiverse-working-group

  • i just hope whatever they do it is lemmy-compatible

    • It should be.

      I've been looking at https://helge.codeberg.page/fep/final/fep-1b12/ which is the closest thing we have to a standard way to do communities. It was written by a Lemmy dev and so Lemmy does 95% of what is described there.

      The only missing piece is the replies, which Lemmy devs have no tepid interest in https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2004. However Mastodon has this so we have an example to copy. I expect nailing that one down will be the bulk of the discussion to be had.

      The replies collection is only really really useful when adding a remote community for the first time and back-filling old content, so it's not something that people on large instances will miss very much if Lemmy never implements it.
