xkr47 hi !
# saranix welcome xkr47
# xkr47 thansk
# xkr47 I was looking for a Java library implementing the ActivityPub protocol(s) but found none :)
# xkr47 oh well now I'm trying to write something simple in Ceylon language instead :)
# xkr47 project probably will die in 30 minutes when I need to go to sleep ;)
# saranix lol keep nibbling at it, you'll get something workable eventually. and then huzzah
# xkr47 buut I am actually interested in trying out new ideas with regards to activitypub
# xkr47 like how to utilize it in coding, development, tracking
# saranix yeah very promissing area
# xkr47 so I need some simple thing to get started
# xkr47 say something that exposes everything said here over activitypub ;----D
# xkr47 (ok just kidding :)
# saranix actually surprised no one did it yet
# xkr47 anyway I thought a very simple yet useful activitypub server would simply expose directories & files as actors & "toots" if you like it
# saranix actually I know why. When I brought up using AP with chat usecase people started throwing tomatoes at me
# xkr47 copy file.txt user/591898233.txt
# xkr47 saranix, did you try unfollowing the tomato feed :D

# dansup Interesting that mastodon and pleroma don't rate limit actions like remote follow
# puckipedia define remote follow?
# dansup well even just follow (local or remote)
# dansup this account followed 26k profiles and is used for data-mining. https://raki.social/@swift
# nightpool[m] even though 26k is a lot globally, it's not a ton of follows on any individual instance
# dansup True, but imagine if someone signed up on your instance and followed 26k profiles and tooted frequently. Thats a lot of requests
# nightpool[m] if they're doing it with a bot, that's rate limited in our normal way
# dansup ah ok
