#Minds is attempting to join the #Fediverse next month, but they are struggling with activating #ActivityPub.
Accounts are “partially” discoverable via #Mastodon or #Misskey apps.
Minds Seeks Fediverse Crown, Attempts To Activate ActivityPub (Again‽) By September https://darnell.day/minds-seeks-fediverse-crown-attempts-to-activate-activitypub-again-by
Too Long; Did Not Read:
Minds has been trying to join Fediverse since 2021
Minds is seeking help activating ActivityPub
Minds is a “free speech zone” who heavily promotes cryptocurrencies
@darnell some corrections:
- Mnds is on the fediverse, we launched on Wednesday
- We started work on it a few weeks ago.
- It's going very well, no struggles
- We follow the same activation paths as Mastodon.social, no unusual limits
@markharding I can see #Minds on the #Fediverse, & Minds can see my #Misskey & #Mastodon accounts, but Minds is unable to ping them when mentioning user handles.
Perhaps there is an issue with implementing #ActivityPub‽
@darnell We'll have mention pings working next week.
@markharding Will follows also work as well‽
@darnell they are working right now as well as votes. I've not seen any issues there. What users are you not able to follow?
@markharding Okay, following is working across several instances (well, the test ones I did on #Misskey & #Mastodon). I am using the @darnellclayton account to test interactions & verify who can see what.
I was able to confirm on both sides (#Minds & other Fediverse platforms). I do know within the apps, they sometimes have difficulty displaying profile stat info from other platforms (visiting them on the web can clarify any issues).
@darnell @markharding @darnellclayton Follows have not been working in #Mitri for @silverpill. I've also noticed that post querying doesn't work. Everything else is running perfectly!
@realcaseyrollins @markharding @darnellclayton So #Mitri can not see #Minds‽ Or is Mitri itself having issues‽
