"An ActivityPub server with an NNTP interface."

Note for implementing ActivityPub federation.

"In particular, this blog post is a direct response to forge-net (formerly known as GitPub). They want to federate and decentralize git using ActivityPub, the same technology leveraged by Mastodon and PeerTube. But get this: git is already federated and decentralized!"

If we consider using JSON Schema for validating JSON-LD (RDF), maybe representing the schema themselves should represented as RDF?

Moderation should be a composable, customizable piece that can be layered into your experience. For custom feeds, there is a basic default (only who you follow), and then many possibilities for custom algorithms.

"An implementation of the IETF HTTP Message Signatures draft standard"

Development plans for ActivityPods, a Solid / AP integration. The article also describes Mastopods which will be a Mastodon-compatible version of this code.

"We observed that most paginations are just linked or double linked lists, with sometimes a way to indicate the ordering, and/or even IRI templates with search forms or controls to change the ordering. This is not the most efficient data structure to retrieve information..."
