Testing syndication from my indiekit blog to self-hosted fedify AP implementation
-
As seen in FediDB node explorer tool :
{ "$schema": "http://nodeinfo.diaspora.software/ns/schema/2.1#", "version": "2.1", "software": { "name": "indiekit", "version": "1.0.0" }, "protocols": [ "activitypub" ], "services": { "inbound": [], "outbound": [] }, "openRegistrations": false, "usage": { "users": { "total": 1, "activeMonth": 1, "activeHalfyear": 1 }, "localPosts": 237, "localComments": 0 }, "metadata": {} } -
Hi #fediverse community I’m an old timer here and other Mastodon server since 2016 I was previously @rmdes@mstdn.social and very recently moved to my own #Fedify #indiekit AP instance meaning I’m the only indiekit user with an AP actor endpoint https://browser.pub/rmendes.net I’m still testing migration (ongoing) I may have lost some social connection but its okay. I’m using this account to verify my Fedify AP works as expected my future account is @rick@rmendes.net once everything is stable

Test Fedi from #indiekit activitypub plugin

Test indiekit #activitypub plugin

Very much in development but I have thinkered around Microsub and developing a Fedify driven indiekit plugin so that I can be my own AP actor in the fediverse from where I run my blog (indiekit) https://rmendes.net/content/notes/2026-02-19-8b1d5/
If you search #mastodon from any URL’s on my blog, it will return its AP representation, now I’m hacking microsub to be able to reuse its reader capability to read from AP timelines
-
Test from Indiekit ActivityPub plugin, if you see this, please react :)

I Guess I’m now the first ever Indiekit Instance on the #fediverse
Thanks to Fedify

Lately I have spent more time bookmarking /podcasts episodes I don’t want to miss than actually listening to them !

“Let’s just call this what it is: Donald Trump’s administration wants to silence anyone who says anything bad about Trump on TV, because all Trump does is watch TV, OK? He’s like a toddler with too much screen time. He gets cranky and then drops a load in his diaper.”

Anyone can now install #FeedLand on their #Cloudron without building anything : deploy repo package is here
cloudron install --image rmdes/feedland-cloudron:latest --location feedland.example.com
-
Integrated a Feedland widget on my blog sidebar https://rmendes.net/content/articles/2026-02-14-deploying-your-own-indieweb-site/ (you’ll have to scroll down to see it) #blogroll
-
My indiekit blogroll plugin now supports feeding a blogroll page/widget from OPML URL, OPML FILE, Microsub and Feedland the first two are a given, but the microsub source basically reuse the already subscribed feed from my indiekit microsub implementation and display them as blogroll items and Feedland is more or less the same idea but the source here is a feedland server providing the dynamic OPML input.

Just a few months ago, AI coding was described as an overblown “auto-complete”, auto-complete has been around for functions and classes and what not since…I don’t know, years ? imagine if PR were rejected because the developer had used auto-complete to help him/her write a piece of code, or worst, a bug fix?
I fully understand that no humans should be tasked to review spam PR & spam automated “contributions” but if a contribution is “generated” by Claude and/with a Human, in my view, it is as much valid as a purely human contribution. Code is Code, Improvement is Improvement.
I bet this will be seen as completely outdated in just a few months, some will resist, will even fight against human+ai contributions, but they are only going against the tide.
