 Threads posts and profiles are also available, for users that have checked the magic box Here's a post: While Threads does not support the replies collection yet, they do support the inReplyTo pointer, which BrowserPub renders above https://browser.pub/https://www.threads.net/@evanprodromou/post/C-0iXNmvgj7 BrowserPub also supports the new fediverse:creator discovery mechanism Bluesky profiles that are bridged can also be rendered e.g. @snarfed.org bridged bsky profile https://browser.pub/https://bsky.brid.gy/ap/did:plc:3ljmtyyjqcjee2kpewgsifvb Hmm, I'd love to be able to render a more dynamic og:image at some point 🤔 @dave Dave I was going to link the podcast guid to pi.org search, but it doesn't take guids! https://podcastindex.org/search?q=4c5142a7-a0bc-5c86-bad8-c149d4eceed6 You can link directly to the podcast pages with the guid though. https://podcastindex.org/podcast/4c5142a7-a0bc-5c86-bad8-c149d4eceed6 BrowserPub also tries to render custom emojis in content and profile headers, these are in the ActivityPub payload after all even animated ones https://browser.pub/https://bolha.one/users/joaonaweb/statuses/112978564080782762 and of course Flipboard is supported (cc @mike) nothing special, just the same ActivityPub spec implementation https://browser.pub/https%3A%2F%2Fflipboard.social%2Fusers%2Farunshah so even though Threads doesn't return collection items in the ActivityPub payload yet, it _does_ include the counts - so at least I can display those just pushed it live https://browser.pub/https://threads.net/ap/users/17841401083120503/ Polls are not a Mastodon-specific feature, they can be expressed well in standard ActivityPub, which means standards-based apps like BrowserPub can render them Here is a recent poll example from @evan https://browser.pub/https://cosocial.ca/@evan/113005485605693174 and looks like Ghost got their outbox and posts ActivityPub working although they are not in reverse chron like everyone else (@johnonolan, was this intentional?) So as I'm bopping around looking at everyone's #ActivityPub in browser.pub, I wanted to have the ability to follow interesting people while I'm browsing. I just pushed a new update that adds a "Follow" button next to every profile in the visual view Ideally, I'd like to have these follows take effect here in my main account and not have to create a brand new profile on a brand new site. This is where OAuth comes in - many existing fediverse servers supported federated login in a standard way Just enter your account to start the login flow in browser.pub browser.pub requests the ability to add new follows to your account... ... then stores the login info in the browser For OAuth dorks, it'll show the token expiration and granted scope Also whether or not the server supports the excellent OAuth server metadata spec, and whether the server supports PKCE (a security improvement that is a newer part of the spec) You'll see that only the newest Mastodon 4.3 (still beta only?) supports this new metadata, but it should be rolling out widely soon. anyway, once you have an active login it will be displayed in the top-right corner, and you can follow profiles with a tap of the "Follow" button now Pleroma is special here, it supports following like this in bog-standard ActivityPub! ie just posting a small json payload to the logged-in user's outbox endpoint hopefully more ActivityPub servers support this soon, as it should be very similar to what they already do for S2S misskey and micro.blog from @manton both support client registration for clients like this by simply providing a website url it's called "indieauth" (displayed in the login info row, otherwise falls back to mastodon-style app-creation-based registration) there is a newer emerging standard for dynamic client registration, but no one supports it yet - I'll add it when one does! micro.blog doesn't support C2S follows via the outbox yet, but we can fallback to the micro.blog api here you'll notice that browser.pub not only requests the ability to follow, but _also_ to read, generally this gives the logged-in user the ability to explore ActivityPub collections that may not be public, only accessible via auth (if the server supports such collections over ActivityPub C2S) in theory, you could imagine building a thing on top of these collections that looks like your personal mastodon timeline, but using spec-standard ActivityPub in practice, tho, here is my mastodon inbox 🤦♂️ Pleroma, however, is a different story - a better story here is my Pleroma account, listing my private inbox collection - essentially my home timeline this is not public, but available to ActivityPub C2S clients like browser.pub with a valid auth token Under the hood, the personal inbox is represented as an essentially infinite ActivityPub OrderedCollection, with no 'totalItems' count property, and no 'last' pointer I can keep iterating down my inbox reverse chron this way in the json... ... or by hitting "next" in the visual view maybe I should add some sort of automatic revealing of the next item on scroll and of course you can't see my personal Pleroma 'inbox' collection here, since you aren't logged in as me as it should be if anyone finds any additional endpoints available to read over C2S when authed (on any AP server impl), let me know - I'd be very curious to know what's supported out there one more for today: just got @pixelfed oauth working too similar to mastodon, you can add an existing pixelfed.social account, and follow any fediverse user directly from browser.pub and, similar to mastodon, pixelfed does not seem to support any additional ActivityPub over C2S when authed  @js can I just say that you've done a really lovely job on the rendering of all the information from profiles etc here. It looks really, really good. Thank you. |
And here's @manton 's profile using micro.blog's AP endpoint
