Bridge to allow X (Twitter) users and posts to be viewed externally via the ActivityPub protocol
ActivityPub Client API: A Way Forward | Steve Bate
The ActivityPub Client-to-Server (C2S) protocol was envisioned as a cornerstone of the decentralized social web, along with the Server-to-Server (S2S) protocol. Standardized by the W3C in 2018, C2S defines how user-facing applications, such as mobile apps or web clients, and bots should interact with social servers using Activity Streams 2.0 and JSON-LD. In theory, it ... Read more

ActivityPub
The ActivityPub protocol is a decentralized social networking protocol based upon the [ActivityStreams] 2.0 data format. It provides a client to server API for creating, updating and deleting content, as well as a federated server to server API for delivering notifications and content.

X Kills Nitter And Xcancel, The Last Ways To Read Tweets Without Elon Watching
When Twitter launched, it was originally designed to be just like an open protocol. In the early days, the company eagerly supported third party development, building on that protocol. But, because…
ActivityPub
ActivityPub is a protocol and open standard for decentralized social networking. It provides a client-to-server (C2S) API for creating and modifying content, as well as a federated server-to-server (S2S) protocol for delivering notifications and content to other servers. ActivityPub is the defining standard of the Fediverse, a decentralised social network of various social interaction models, and content types, which consists of independently managed instances of software such as Mastodon, Pixelfed and PeerTube, among others.

Elon Musk on Twitter / X
Interesting. Our algorithm tries to optimize time spent on X, so links don’t get as much attention, because there is less time spent if people click away. Best thing is to post content in long form on this platform.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 3, 2023
Thoughts on a "Web Follow" protocol
Mastodon's cross-instance following is clunky. I propose a solution using the web+follow URL scheme, like mailto, to streamline following users on ActivityPub platforms. A user's home instance registers as a handler for web+follow. Clicking a web+follow link opens the home instance, redirecting to a /follow request on the target instance. This page uses a meta refresh tag to redirect to /resolve-app, which redirects back to web+follow: with the user's ID. This triggers the registered handler (if available), creating a seamless follow experience within the user's preferred app. If no handler is installed, the user remains on the target instance's follow page, preserving existing functionality.
I'm certainly not against saying what I think AT Protocol has wrong. github.com/swicg/activitypub-api/issues/…
Many people are talking about decentralized social media protocols like #ActivityPub and #ATProto and all the amazing things one can do with them. But do you actually know how they work? We thought we'd do something about this. Come to #FediForum next week if you are curious and like to find […]
Original post on mastodon.social
mastodon.socialAtmosphere social client apps should make it easier to broadcast beyond the protocol. Ex. In-app mirroring tools for Threads, X, and other microblogging platforms. As well as having post scheduling. Let people share across the social internet, but make sure ATproto feels like home base.
