@felix PeerTube represents its channels as Group actors.

I tried poking into Lemmy maybe a month ago last time, and I couldn't get it to return ActivityPub objects. IIRC it didn't parse the Accept header correctly, and thus could only federate with itself. Haven't checked if that's been fixed since.

@grishka no, I didnt have time to figure that out because it seemed low priority. Why dont you simply send one of the headers we support?

@felix well, I send the one suggested by the spec:
Accept: application/ld+json; profile="w3.org/ns/activitystreams"

The spec also says that you're supposed to support application/activity+json. Mastodon actually sends both, comma-separated.

@felix (mastodon parsing links and hiding https:// isn't being helpful here)

@grishka I'm pretty sure that one should work. Which instance are you testing with?

Mastodon is a whole different beast, its probably gonna be a while before we federate with it.

@felix friends.grishka.me, but iirc I didn't even go as far as testing with an instance, I was just poking around with sending requests manually, like this.

Ok, it works now, but some things are of types I don't support, like Page.

@felix other things are of types I do support, but don't have their JSON-LD contexts right, it seems... This needs "https:// w3id. org/security/v1" because that's where publicKey is defined.

@felix also the pt: namespace isn't defined anywhere

@grishka @felix

I see that FEDERATION.md is not updated yet.. are you planning to?

It's far from a perfect mechanism, but can still be a timesaver when ppl are figuring things out.

For #lemmy it'd also be nice to have this. A couple of examples are shown in the #ActivityPub implementers guide on #socialhub

See: socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/

(You can edit yourself, as this is a wiki post).

@humanetech @felix yeah I will update it at some point. With both this and the wall stuff, I changed it since to follow that FEP of mine.

@grishka the truth is that we dont really know how the context works, or what it should look like. but its easy to fix because its just a hardcoded string. would you like to make an issue or a PR?

@felix I may try, though keep in mind that I've never written Rust.

(localizing developer software is almost always a mistake, this button says literally "guilt" and it's hilarious)

@grishka that looks good, thanks. You can see if it compiles by running cargo check, but thats not really necessary here. Unfortunately we only have ci on github.

@grishka okay merged, i just had to make a small change to make it compile.
