question for the #lemmy users and #activitypub developers out there:
now that @lemmy is seeing a spike in interest, and @Gargron has said he’s interested in building out groups on #mastodon - this seems like the right time to update ActivityPub protocol to support groups natively. anyone looking into this?
lemmy’s integration into mastodon is pretty janky right now and can be a lot better!
@jessel @lemmy @Gargron Groups have multiple meanings tho…
“groups” as in… a.gup.pe - people post into the group account, and it boosts for everybody following the group account to see on the main timeline like any other account.
groups as in - private group chats - a bunch of people posting to each other (not searchable/not public)
groups as in subreddits… you subscribe to the group, and you can toot into that group… these toots are inside the group but fully interactive inside the group.
I’d appreciate it if you keep your toots in a private group.
@shlee @lemmy @Gargron yeah i was thinking about the last one
