ctas Looks like the ActivityPub test suite is currently not accessible (returns 502). Anyone got an idea when it will be available again?
# 
jaywink[m] I think it has been down for at least a year or so :P Several people have volunteered to host it but apparently it's impossible to get running, have tried as well.
# jaywink[m] Might be good to update activitypub.rocks to reflect, but apparently modifying that is tricky too ;)
# jaywink[m] oh looks like that has changed a bit since I last looked and now there is a workflow for that https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/how-to-hack-on-activitypub-rocks/375
# ctas What a pity. Is there any alternative source for it?
# ctas Oh, it's included in the repo the link points to, if I'm not mistaken.

@onurhsolmaz ↩️ The good thing: we don't have to wait for Twitter, because it's already done. @MastodonProject has been around for some time already, and the protocol is called ActivityPub

# dance_ The SSL certificate at https://test.activitypub.rocks/ seems to have expired a couple of years ago..?
# dance_ Wow, it's quiet here...
# dance_ So many people, and so quiet..
# lanodan dance_: https://github.com/w3c/activitypub/issues/337
# dance_ Uh oh, that's not very encouraging..
# dance_ Reported a year ago, and the site owner apparently working on it in May 2019...
# dance_ Ok, found some more explanation
# dance_ Fair enough :)
# dance_ Better just remove that link until someone steps up to the task maybe?
