<p>BotKit 0.2.0 Released</p><p>We&#x27;re pleased to announce the release of <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/" rel="nofollow">BotKit</a> 0.2.0! For those new to our project, <a href="/tags/botkit/" rel="tag">#BotKit</a> is a <a href="/tags/typescript/" rel="tag">#TypeScript</a> framework for creating standalone <a href="/tags/activitypub/" rel="tag">#ActivityPub</a> bots that can interact with Mastodon, Misskey, and other <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a> platforms without the constraints of these existing platforms.</p><p>This release marks an important step in our journey to make fediverse bot development more accessible and powerful, introducing several features that our community has been requesting.</p><p>The Journey to Better Bot Interactions</p><p>In building BotKit, we&#x27;ve always focused on making bots more expressive and interactive. With version 0.2.0, we&#x27;re taking this to the next level by bringing the social aspects of the fediverse to your bots.</p><p>Expressing Your Bot&#x27;s Personality with Custom Emojis</p><p>One of the most requested features has been <a href="/tags/custom_emoji/" rel="tag">#custom_emoji</a> support. Now your bots can truly express their personality with unique visuals that make their messages stand out.</p><p>// Define custom emojis for your botconst emojis = bot.addCustomEmojis({ botkit: { file: `${import.meta.dirname}/images/botkit.png`, type: &quot;image/png&quot; }, fedify: { url: &quot;<a href="https://fedify.dev/logo.png" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>fedify.dev/logo.png</a>&quot;, type: &quot;image/png&quot; }});// Use these custom emojis in your messagesawait session.publish( text`BotKit ${customEmoji(emojis.botkit)} is powered by Fedify ${customEmoji(emojis.fedify)}`);</p><p>With this new API, you can:</p><p>Add custom emojis to your bot with Bot.addCustomEmojis()<br>Include these emojis in messages with the <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/text#custom-emojis" rel="nofollow">customEmoji()</a> function<br><a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/text#emoji" rel="nofollow">Use the text tagged template with Fedify Emoji objects</a></p><p>Engaging Through Reactions</p><p>Communication isn&#x27;t just about posting messages—it&#x27;s also about responding to others. The new reaction system creates natural interaction points between your bot and its followers:</p><p>// React to a message with a standard Unicode emojiawait message.react(emoji`👍`);// Or use one of your custom emojis as a reactionawait message.react(emojis.botkit);// Create a responsive bot that acknowledges reactionsbot.onReact = async (session, reaction) =&gt; { await session.publish( text`Thanks for reacting with ${reaction.emoji} to my message, ${reaction.actor}!`, { visibility: &quot;direct&quot; } );};</p><p>This feature allows your bot to:</p><p>React to messages with Unicode emojis using <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/message#reacting-to-a-message-with-an-emoji" rel="nofollow">Message.react()</a><br>React with the custom emojis you&#x27;ve defined<br>Handle reaction events with <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/events#emoji-reaction" rel="nofollow">Bot.onReact</a> and <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/events#undoing-emoji-reaction" rel="nofollow">Bot.onUnreact</a> handlers</p><p>Conversations Through Quotes</p><p>Discussions often involve referencing what others have said. Our new <a href="/tags/quote/" rel="tag">#quote</a> support enables more cohesive conversation threads:</p><p>// Quote another message in your bot&#x27;s postawait session.publish( text`Responding to this interesting point...`, { quoteTarget: originalMessage });// Handle when users quote your bot&#x27;s messagesbot.onQuote = async (session, quoteMessage) =&gt; { await session.publish( text`Thanks for sharing my thoughts, ${quoteMessage.actor}!`, { visibility: &quot;direct&quot; } );};</p><p>With quote support, your bot can:</p><p>Quote messages with <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/message#quoting" rel="nofollow">quoteTarget</a> option<br>Access quoted messages via <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/message#quotes" rel="nofollow">Message.quoteTarget</a><br>Handle quote events with the new <a href="https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/events#quote" rel="nofollow">Bot.onQuote</a> event handler</p><p>Visual Enhancements</p><p>Because communication is visual too, we&#x27;ve improved how your bot presents itself:</p><p>Image attachments now properly display in the web interface<br>Your bot&#x27;s content looks better and provides a richer experience</p><p>Behind the Scenes: Enhanced Activity Propagation</p><p>We&#x27;ve also improved how activities propagate through the fediverse:</p><p>More precise propagation of replies, shares, updates, and deletes<br>Activities are now properly sent to the original message authors</p><p>These improvements ensure your bot&#x27;s interactions are consistent and reliable across different fediverse platforms.</p><p>Taking Your First Steps with BotKit 0.2.0</p><p>Ready to experience these new features? BotKit 0.2.0 is available on <a href="https://jsr.io/@fedify/[email protected]" rel="nofollow">JSR</a> and can be installed with a simple command:</p><p>deno add jsr:@fedify/[email protected]</p><p>Since BotKit uses the Temporal API (which is still evolving in JavaScript), remember to enable it in your deno.json:</p><p>{ &quot;imports&quot;: { &quot;@fedify/botkit&quot;: &quot;jsr:@fedify/[email protected]&quot; }, &quot;unstable&quot;: [&quot;temporal&quot;]}</p><p>With these simple steps, you&#x27;re ready to create or upgrade your fediverse bot with our latest features.</p><p>Looking Forward</p><p>BotKit 0.2.0 represents our ongoing commitment to making fediverse bot development accessible, powerful, and enjoyable.

<p>Fediverse Report – <a href="/tags/104/" rel="tag">#104</a></p><p>Mastodon has announced it will add quote posts to the platform, and some more news.</p><p>The News</p><p>Mastodon has announced it is adding <a href="https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/bringing-quote-posts-to-mastodon/" rel="nofollow">quote posts</a> to the platform, a long-awaited feature. Mastodon got a <a href="https://nlnet.nl/project/Mastodon-Quoting/" rel="nofollow">grant by NLnet</a> in 2024 to add quote posts, and they are now sharing an update on their work. Mastodon is adding a variety of features to quote posts, such as giving people the ability to opt out of being quote posted. They will publish the technical work to support quote posts as Fediverse Enhancement Proposals, and Mastodon is currently in the process of writing these proposals. The organisation does not say when quote posts will be added, only noting that it ‘will still take more time to develop.’</p><p>For a long time, Mastodon had not implemented quote posts because CEO Eugen Rochko saw them as bad. His main concern is that quote posts lead to ‘dunking’ and toxic behaviour. Dunking refers to the behaviour where people use quote posts to ‘dunk’ on other people’s post, often with the intent that this mocking will lead to their followers to also mock and harass the original poster. Dunking was a visible part of Twitter’s culture, and in popular belief dunking and toxicity became linked together. Research showed a more complicated picture. <a href="https://absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2023/01/12/quote-tweeting-over-30-studies-dispel-some-myths/" rel="nofollow">Hilda Bastian analysed</a> over 30 studies on quote tweeting, and concludes: “There’s conflicting evidence on whether QTs [quote Tweets] increase or decrease incivility, and whatever effect there is, it doesn’t seem to be major.“</p><p>In 2023 Mastodon changed their opinion, and first started saying that the organisation was open to implementing quote posts. Still, toxic behaviour via dunking continued to be a main concern. This is visible in the <a href="https://github.com/mastodon/specs-background/blob/main/quote-posts/quote-posts-research-and-goals.md" rel="nofollow">accompanying design research</a> that Mastodon has done in their work on quote posts. Mastodon’s view seems to be that quote posts are toxic at it’s core, saying that “the team started out with a shared view that Quote Posts can be misused.”</p><p>Mastodon takes a technical approach to dealing to the purported problem of toxicity of quote posts, and the blog posts lists three features to mitigate it: people can choose if their posts are able to be quoted, people get notified if they are quoted, and there will be the ability to withdraw your post from the quoted context. Bluesky also has these features for quote posts, and they’re generally received well. What I find missing here is a take by Mastodon on the effect of these features on Bluesky. Mastodon sees quote posts as being dangerous, and that is why they will implement some features to mitigate the risk. But do they think that quote posts are being used well on Bluesky? Is Bluesky’s behaviour and culture around quote posts something that Mastodon is striving towards? I’m not clear to me what Mastodon’s answer is here.</p><p>Mastodon’s design research also says that they will display quotes in a different way to ‘<a href="https://github.com/mastodon/specs-background/blob/main/quote-posts/quote-posts-research-and-goals.md" rel="nofollow">steer away from dunk culture”‘</a>, a feature not mentioned in Mastodon’s announcement blog post. Mastodon is planning to display a quote post by first showing the quote, and showing the reply below it. This is similar to how Tumblr does quote posts. But it differs from how all other platforms that interoperate with Mastodon display quote posts: fediverse native platforms like Misskey, Akkoma and Streams, as well as connected networks like Bluesky and Threads, all display quote posts by showing the reply at the top, and the quoted post below.</p><p>Mastodon’s position is that quote posts are a risky feature invite misuse, and thus need a variety of safety features. But Mastodon is not an isolated platform, it is connected to various other platforms that all have their own ideas about quote posts. If displaying quote posts Tumblr-style (quote above, comment below) is preferred over displaying them Twitter-style (comment above, quote below), what is the expectation on how other platforms should interact with Mastodon quotes? Is Misskey expected to display Mastodon’s quote post differently? Meanwhile, Mastodon is planning to display quotes that originate from Misskey not in the way that Misskey does (Twitter-style), but in their own manner (Tumblr-style), saying that it has <a href="https://github.com/mastodon/specs-background/blob/main/quote-posts/quote-posts-research-and-goals.md" rel="nofollow">“very little impact on the semantics”</a>. </p><p>I find these statements hard to square: on the one hand, Mastodon says it how quote posts are displayed has little impact on the semantics of a post, but at the same time it is assumed to have enough of an impact in that it can reduce “dunking culture”. But if the manner a quote post is displayed can impact people’s behaviour, it automatically follows that the manner a quote post is displayed impacts its semantics, as otherwise there would be no impact on people’s behaviour either. But if the semantics of a post are altered by using a different display method for quote posts, than it means that Mastodon is taking an active decision to alter the semantics of posts made on other networks like Misskey and Bluesky.</p><p>Mastodon’s choice to use a different way of displaying quote posts than the other platforms in their network opens up a new interesting avenue for federated diplomacy. We’ve seen both ways of displaying quote posts be successful, the way posts are quoted is a significant part of how conversations flow on Tumblr. But what is new here is Mastodon is part of a federated network, and that means that their decisions impact other players, and their decisions have impact on Mastodon as well. This interaction between different display types of quote posts is something we have not really seen before, leading to some interesting new types of negotiations: how Mastodon expect Misskey to display Mastodon quote posts on Misskey? How does Threads feel about having their quote posts being displayed differently on Mastodon? What is the expected behaviour of Bridgy Fed, the bridge that connects Bluesky with Mastodon? All those questions are still open, and I’m curious what the answer will turn out to be.</p></p><p>Tumblr is still planning to join the fediverse. I reported this <a href="https://fediversereport.com/fediverse-report-101/" rel="nofollow">recently</a>, and now TechCrunch got a <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/02/11/tumblr-to-join-the-fediverse-after-wordpress-migration-completes/" rel="nofollow">followup</a> and a confirmation from Automattic, saying that ‘Automattic declined to share a time frame as to when the migration would be complete, given its scale, but a rep for the company called the progress so far “exciting.”’</p></p><p>The Social Web Foundation (SWF) has announced they are now a formal member of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The W3C tends to favour institutional membership, but the W3C Social Community Group that concerns itself with ActivityPub is open to everyone. The SWF is working on various improvements to ActivityPub, such as adding end-to-end encryption and supporting data portability.</p></p><p><a href="https://event-federation.eu/wordpress-activitypub-event-extensions/" rel="nofollow">Event Federation</a> is a WordPress <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/event-bridge-for-activitypub/" rel="nofollow">plugin</a> that extends the ActivityPub support plugin for WordPress by adding support for WordPress events.
