    9.3.0 — Modern Signatures and a Summer of Security Reports

    Eight releases since 9.0.0. Modern HTTP signatures are now on by default, podcast episodes travel with their audio, and you can switch off emails about likes and reposts. Most of the summer went into security reports and fixes, and this post explains why that is a good thing that still slows us down.

    The report "ActivityPub and HTTP Signatures" was published today.

    It documents best practices for how to use HTTP Signatures with ActivityPub.

    The content of the report has been available and stable since June 2024, but due to a secretarial error, hadn't been published on the W3C site so far. (Sorry!)

    LInk is on under "Final Reports": w3.org/community/socialcg/

    Tracking RFC 9421 Adoption

    One of the big pain points for ActivityPub developers is supporting HTTP Signature in their servers. The Fediverse uses an out-dated draft standard, draft cavage 12. There's a helpful ActivityPub and HTTP Signatures report from the SocialCG, but it's still kind of a slog. Some server software has begun the pivot to the release version…

    After a bit of silence here, during which I spent some time relaxing, reading books, and taking a so-called vacation, I'm now picking up where I left off and working on my Kirby plugins. I have a mountain of tasks and ideas piling up.

    Our Core Division

    Inspired by Automatticians James Kemp and Dave Smith, I've been thinking a lot about how much of our discord in the design of WordPress stems from the differences of our two big tribes: Bloggers and Builders….

    WordPress goes ActivityPub – Mastodon, Bizzfed etc.
    Auf der Suche nach einer Möglichkeit zur Verbindung von meiner WordPress-Seite mit Bizzfed habe ich dieses Plugin gesehen und es gefällt mir schon jetzt! Sehr schlank, schnell am Start und binnen weniger Minuten war es möglich

Alongside it, an experimental ActivityPub API that lets third-party Fediverse apps post to your blog, Starter Pack imports in the Pixelfed and Mastodon formats, and richer…

    9.0.0 — Growing Up

    ActivityPub for WordPress 9.0.0 is here. Unpublishing a federated post now sends a real Delete instead of a placeholder. Be aware that this can be permanent on other servers. A new Distribution Mode keeps federation from overwhelming smaller servers, your blog can now be featured in Starter Kits, images get blurred color previews, and the…

    @mthie Joar… Ich finde, man kann auch Dinge ausprobieren. Die Technik kann auch coole Sachen, aber die Nachteile sind echt heftig und die Geschäfts- und Betreibermodelle sind wirklich ein Problem. Ich kann auch Auto fahren und Autos kritisieren.
