dansup jdormit[m]: Nope, I'm still not sure what the pixelfed issue is
# 02:24 
dansup pixelfed did have a bug sort of similar to the one kaniini reported. It caused duplicate profiles for local users, 3 lines of code fixed it 😅
# 02:25 
jdormit[m] Federation is complicated haha
# 02:27 
dansup yeah lol

dariusk I'm just starting to look into why Pleroma can't follow accounts on my RSS-to-AP converter
# 02:39 
dariusk so far I have: installed pleroma

jdormit[m] Of course something to keep in mind is that Pleroma is using a slightly different protocol that they made up
# 02:42 
jdormit[m] So federating with them might have differences from federating with compliant ActivityPub instances
# 02:43 
dariusk interesting, I thought they more or less hew to Mastodon (which is its own made-up not-exactly-AP thing)
# 02:43 
jdormit[m] Although supposedly LitePub is AP compatible
# 02:43 
dariusk oh it's litepub
# 02:43 
dariusk hmmm
# 02:43 
dariusk that is helpful to know
# 02:43 
jdormit[m] Haha yeah Mastodon is it's own can of worms also
# 03:04 
nightpool[m] I think we should stop calling things litepub until they actually like... publish a spec
# 03:45 
dansup yeah, litepub is more like one or two AP Extensions, not a huge change from the AP spec
