And now we have a #Fediwall @ the #Fediverse Assembly right now.
See your own post there... 😅

Excited to see some new projects implementing #ActivityPub and joining the #fediverse in the final stretches of 2025:
Accounts on new server implementations I have come across the last days are #Agora (test account here: @flancian) and #SquidCity (test account: @lobsters)

We're sad to see that IFTAS Connect has begun the process of shutting down.
We, like many other server admins, often found advice and help from the community there.
We hope that by preserving the 'Connect' news feed with Channel.org tech we can give back to the community.
Thank you for the work by @iftas and everyone involved, including all the admins who shared their thoughts there.
We look forward to seeing what's next for community collaboration on the Fediverse.

Hey you! Would you like to learn how #ActivityPub works?
I have a *single-file* ActivityPub server which can be used to run bots.
It supports quotes, mentions, hashtags, and most features of the modern #Fediverse.
You can play around by uploading one PHP file and one .htaccess file to your website.
Get started at:

Thanks to those mentioned below. Their blogs, their writing, their thoughts, and what they share were not only featured in this week's edition, but they are part of what sustains myself and the IndieWeb in general in darker times. Thanks! 🧡

You don’t fight for the open web because you are going to win, you fight for the open web because it is the open web.
We're excited to announce that #Fedify has been awarded a service agreement by the @sovtechfund! The Sovereign Tech Fund is investing €192,000 in Fedify's development over 2025–2026 to strengthen the fediverse ecosystem.
This investment will enable us to significantly expand Fedify's capabilities and make it easier for developers to build federated applications. The commissioned work focuses on improving developer experience, adding comprehensive debugging tools, and ensuring Fedify remains at the forefront of #ActivityPub innovation.
Here are the key milestones we'll be delivering:
Web framework integrations: Official adapters for Next.js, Elysia, Fastify, and Koa, making it seamless to add federation to existing applications
ActivityPub debug & development tools: Real-time debug dashboard with WebSocket monitoring, federation lifecycle hooks, and implementation checklist CLI to make federation interactions transparent and debuggable
Storage & infrastructure enhancements: SQLiteKvStore for robust file-based storage across Node.js, Deno, and Bun, plus performance optimizations for production deployments
Comprehensive documentation & examples: Specialized tutorials for building federated blogs, social networks, and content platforms, with complete working examples and migration guides
Observability & monitoring: Full OpenTelemetry metrics, performance benchmarking tools, and federation health dashboards for production environments
Advanced features & standards: FEP-ef61 (Portable Objects) support and implementation of emerging Fediverse Enhancement Proposals to keep Fedify at the cutting edge
All developments will be open source and available for the entire #fediverse community to use, contribute to, and build upon.

It's live.
I've just released my final software update for 2025, which includes 100% fidelity account migrations between #Bandwagon servers.
This long-overdue enhancement means that everyone can take their identity to any other #Emissary server on the #Fediverse. EVERYTHING moves with you.. music uploads, album sales, everything. And, your followers are forwarded to your new address.
There's plenty more, including a 2025 recap, and some plans for 2026 here: https://bandwagon.fm/2025-december

Would be cool to host a Mastodon instance totally on solar energy. A bit like what https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/ or https://solarprotocol.net/ does but instead of a static website, a horizontally scaled Mastodon instance.

I've had Honk, a light hearted activitypub platform, installed for quite awhile now. Updating and installing were simple enough that I could do it, but I honestly have no idea how to use it!
It's fun to say I've honked something tho. 🦆
Are there any other Honkers out there?
I'll write up my notes on the install process (has been stored away in my journal for over a year) before I uninstall.
