Just reading about how Ghost has implemented recommendations using webmentions Feels like something we could do pretty simply? use Semble to make a Collection select the collection in your Standard Site to be used for recommendations export/sync the Collection as recommendations.json (so Leaflet / Pckt / Offprint can build that into their hosted appviews) So I guess the need here is to settle on a lexicon for these recommendations? I sort of mixed in a flow that lets you use Semble to mana...
My thoughts on how Ghost might join Fediverse
The folks who make Ghost, the wonderful software that runs this site, and my comic site incredibledoom.com recently put up a poll asking how folks would like them to implement one of their most requested features: ActivityPub support. Here's what I told them.
Recommendations - Ghost Developer Docs
Making a Ghost Blog a Valid standard.site Publication
This blog federates over ActivityPub through Ghost so Mastodon users can follow @index@subaud.io. standard.site is the counterpart for the AT Protocol side: a set of lexicons that describe a blog as records in an atproto repo, the same identity and data layer behind a Bluesky account. Anything
Semble Explore Feed and Follow Graph
put together an @obsidian.md plugin for working with your @semble.so cards and collections. Also supports community.lexicon bookmarks along with @kipclip.com tags. an early POC but its amazing how quickly you can just do things with AT proto tangled.org/treethought.xyz/obsidian-atma…
does a @semble.so <-> @lexidraw.app integration interest anyone 👀

Totally! Graph view will also be really useful for creating these, something we discussed in Vancouver @chrisshank.com @wesleyfinck.org @pouriade.com
Lexicon suggestions for reader apps on AT Proto (such as @leaflet.pub Reader and @skyreader.app): - storing the reading status of a given URL - “liking” or “recommending” an URL - public (and when permissioned data will be out, private, or access controlled) folders to organize subscriptions
User & Agents
@userandagents.org
We are a community focused on shaping the future of user-agent systems. Our goal is to empower people by designing and building software that provides agency, control, and choice in our digital lives. userandagents.org
Hmmm, I was expecting semble.so to be something different I think I was expecting the to see a social backlink aggregator and exploration tool, but right now it seems more like social bookmarks
Just coming across this now - I love how @standard-reader.app is using @semble.so Connections to help create their "Related Reading" section 💙 @wesleyfinck.org and I have long talked about how to make the Youtube recommendations pane (and similar) open and peer-powered instead of opaque algos, >
Standard Reader
We now show sections for: - articles that cite the one you're looking at - articles that have connections defined on @semble.so
New post on the @cosmik.network blog! A creative new use of @semble.so by @paperpilot.dev inspired a sequel to "Sensors, not Bookmarks" from the writer's perspective - the Connections you make on Semble can help your writing find its natural audience
