#commonspub — Public Fediverse posts

Bonfire is a Fediverse project that aims to store your social data on a physical device that you own (for example a Raspberry Pi running Bonfire software). It will also operate offline if preferred.

It's still in development, but you can follow the project at:

➡️ @bonfire

The new official website is at https://bonfirenetworks.org

(It was previously known as CommonsPub.)

Bonfire is a new project that aims to combine an open source hardware device with FOSS federated social networks to allow you to physically control your own data, and to operate offline too if you want. You can follow at:

@mayel @rysiek @tcit @karen @bonfire I noticed the #CommonsPub project before I liked the idea of a general-purpose #ActivityPub server. Especially as it could serve as a base for more specific servers by having plug-in support etc. I see now that CommonsPub is being reactores into the Bonfire ecosystem. What does that mean? For the CommonsPub project in particular..

ActivityPub gave us interoperability at the data level, and we’d like to do the same on the software level with CommonsPub …

CommonsPub has chosen Postgresql as the default database for building ActivityPub applications.

There's another speaker at the same conference complaining about performance of #diaspora* with RDBMS. He created an #ActivityPub project called #Mammoth which uses #CouchDB.

#CommonsPub is storing JSON objects in #Postgresql DB which is also what Mammoth is doing. So, will there be much difference if using a NoSQL DB? :blobthinkingcool:

@mayel says it, as it is. #commonspub @commonspub
I think this meets your #4opens criterion? @Hamishcampbell @witchescauldron @msaunders

Phew!
That was a lot of awesome #videos for the ⬡ #ActivityPub Conf 2020

All the hashtags overlap, so why not discover all combs here ?

with the continued development of #openprotocols such as #zot, #activitypub (#commonspub) etc.
I think it is becoming much easier for #convergence & #collaboration across multi platforms and systems.

@apconf Happy to answer any questions, both during the Q&A (Saturday at 12:30 UTC) or here!

@dajbelshaw
WoW. shocked am I.
@mayel are you guyz still working together? #commonspub
& what remains open??

@mayel One question, have you considered ways for one instance of #CommonsPub to support multiple domain names? In the same way that I can use my #Disintermedia.net.nz domain as an alias for my RiseUp.net inbox. I'm imagining a situation where a co-op hosts official accounts for organizations, with one price for an [email protected] address, and a higher one for a [email protected] address. You could run an instance per company, but that might be over-engineering if they only want one account.
