If you would permit me to share: i'm currently working on a light forge called Frogue: https://frogue.vit.am/~ololduck/Frogue

Regarding your point about ForgeFed, i think we need real implementations active in the world in order to improve . To my knowledge, https://frogue.vit.am is the only "working" (tests pass, two instances successfully communicate with each other) ForgeFed forge online. If you know of any other i would love to be made aware of it.

There's a irc channel with 22 silent users in it.

Frogue is also an server, so if you want news about it you can subscribe to @ololduck@frogue.vit.am

Sorry for butting in, i realize that this message does give the impression of tooting my own horn, but that is not the case. What i'm trying to convey is that as a ForgeFed dev/user, i'm feeling quite a lack of interest in bringing the spec to life.

      Indeed interesting, thank you for posting.

      I notice that you are asking for help, but the software looks unlicensed, which technically makes it proprietary. Would you consider adding a license?

      In terms of implementations, other than the impl I mentioned above, the other active project I know about is by @elle also in ..

      codeberg.org/activitypub-rs/ac

      I think there are enough people interested to bring forgefed.org to a higher level. But doing so requires a ton of work, that is daunting to just volunteer for. Ideally there should be funding to dedicate to that, but the funding landscape favors creating code, not creating good open standards and their broad adoption. Unfortunately.

        Thank you for reminding me to put a license, that completely slipped my mind. However, i thought that unlicensed public stuff was by default public domain? Am i wrong in this?

        And yes, when i started on Frogue from the ashes of IronBridge, i noticed activitypub-rs too. They do seem focused on implementing everything in the spec, whereas i'm more of the opinion of creating working software first and implement the rest later. What i meant by "online" was "active as a server" so that we could test exchanging data and refine our approaches together.

        Thank you for your words of encouragement.

          The default is "All rights reserved" where the creator is the copyright holder.

          Since there are now 3 projects implementing it might be great to test between the projects, as a good means to improve the specification.

          (Btw, I noticed your README to say "ForgeJo", but it is "Forgejo", an Esperanto word for Forge. You pronounce is as "For jay oh 😮", not "Forge yo 🤘" :)

            @smallcircles@social.coop Thank you for your correction about Forgejo, it is fixed in 15c35c0.

            Time to hunt for a license :D

                @hsza@social.tudbut.de there is some, it's true. If you've seen that there's slop, you probably have read my reasoning for using it for non-code stuff.
                Do you have any rebutals or constructive criticism?
