lemmy -> kbin = pretends to send but doesn’t
Appreciate the level-headed reply in this thread. There’s a lot of fingerpointing and hostility going on and I’d appreciate it if people would make less assumptions / jumps to attack people. I’m not sure if you or anyone else can confirm, but I agree with ernest that federation of mod actions was working once before. Without knowing exactly why it stopped, it’s hard to say what is going on.
For instance, I just coordinated with the admins of startrek.website as their latest maintenance started blocking user agents with curl
in it, which is what kbin sends, meaning all kbin instances stopped being able to get images from their instance. It seems like this is true for multiple other lemmy instances. I didn’t follow up with any other admins at the moment, but I think from that, and the fact that back when I originally signed up people would constantly complain kbin federation was broken when it was lemmy.ml that was blocking kbin, it’s not a good idea to jump to assumptions on why something isn’t working.
Not just on the roadmap, already in :) (fingers crossed no bugs, no promises ><) example
Just to follow up on this, contributors to kbin investigated and found that startrek.website appears to block user agents that contain “curl” in it now.
Example:
curl -v --user-agent "curl" https://startrek.website/pictrs/image/3ff1b940-75da-4e6b-8948-834ebd4b454c.jpeg
times out while:
curl -v --user-agent "anything-else" https://startrek.website/pictrs/image/3ff1b940-75da-4e6b-8948-834ebd4b454c.jpeg
works. kbin apparently sends User-Agent: Symfony HttpClient (Curl)
in its requests for images, which is different than how it handles other fetch requests. they’ve made a PR to change kbin to send the user agent it uses elsewhere in those image requests https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/1098 once that is approved / merged they should start working again as instances update. It’d be nice if, assuming this is all accurate, the block on curl could be removed so people don’t have to wait for the PR / instances to update but I understand if that is difficult
It looks like ever since this maintenance, no kbin instances can get images from startrek.website:

https://kbin.cafe/d/startrek.website?p=3

(the links atm go to ~3 days ago when maintenance happened but ofc will start to drift as more posts are made)
You can see the thumbnails disappear exactly at the mark of the maintenance and ever since then they’re gone. If you see thumbnails after that, they’re usually wrong ones that are being loaded from different posts (there’s a separate issue in for that now). I was wondering if you were aware of any issues or changes that happened because of this maintenance that would prevent kbin instances from fetching thumbnails? I’ve raised this in the kbin matrix chat as well
This question has plagued my mind for decades, because the main character of the tv show Eureka, Jack Carter, always answered his radio/phone with this. And to this day I have no idea what words he was saying or why he always said it. I had started to think he was saying “gofer” which is
An employee who runs errands in addition to performing regular duties.
But that seemed a bit weird for the sheriff to say
Just to add another concrete example, I saw a toot recently that .af
may be risky, as some countries are beginning to implement embargoes; the person who had a domain there may be losing it soon
He did say it would be “federated this week” but in the next comment in that issue he made he said that changed “but it turns out it’s not easy, and I wouldn’t want to make such a big change hastily”. I don’t think anything has happened since. I definitely almost never see any reduces over here on a different kbin, so I think it’s still the same. There is still some discussion in that issue, someone just posted they have a PoC of doing it in a fork for instance.
There’s some relevant discussion here and in the thread linked by ernest in that post here. I don’t want to give any wrong information, but I don’t think activitypub has a spec for downvotes/reduces/dislikes, just likes and shares (boosting). So on mastodon dislikes definitely aren’t federated. I believe for lemmy, they federate between lemmy instances that have them enabled, but for kbin they are local to your instance.
I’m curious what panel resonates with people the most, if you had to live in one (left to right, top to bottom)
I am not toooooooo sure; I’m not familiar with lemmy myself. You could try adding the scheme before it, so: https://lemmy.world/c/beebutts or perhaps go about it the long way with url linking [lemmy.world/c/beebutts](https://lemmy.world/c/beebutts)
lemmy.world/c/beebutts
Heads up, the last link in your post has an extra .com
You appear to be on kbin, so you would go to https://kbin.social/settings/general and under Homepage select “Subscriptions” and then Click “Save” at the bottom of the page
Edit: I interpreted this question as subscribing to things, and then filtering to only that on the main page, my mistake if you meant otherwise
I attended a talk in 2019 by Sir Tim Berners-Lee on Solid, which sort of seems related to what you are getting at. The idea being that you own your data/identity, and can decide to share it with third parties. It goes over things like files, but I believe login identities were also meant to be part of it, I see when I scroll down:
authenticated by a decentralized extension of OpenID Connect
I’ve been wondering recently, especially with Pixelfed adding login with Mastodon recently, if anyone has heard or experienced anything with that project. But considering I haven’t seen it spoken about or implemented since then, I’m not sure I should be hopeful
Just a note that the original team moved to PrivacyGuides. I didn’t do much reading into the entire ordeal as it seems like a sort of each side has a story ( here’s privacyguides ), but you can see on the site you linked it seems to be a bunch of ads and crypto now.
One thing I’m trying to keep an eye on is sup. Not much information at all besides a snippet of 1 to 1 encrypted messaging for activitypub, but the tidbit of working with any fediverse account is interesting. Potentially that could help deal with the different fediverse implementations of messaging. Of course, like I said, this is just me making up assumptions, it could not work the way I envision it at all. The creator just posted something 5d ago about it with “soon” though, so I’m hoping to read more about it
