We're happily and quietly running a non-ActivityPub federation since 15+ years and are astonished about our own backwards compatibility and keep on exploring new applications for the system in many different domains.

Contents we welcome in the federation includes a Pattern Languages of Commoning. http://editions.commoning.wiki/

Debt Metaphor Explained

While programming we continually make decisions about the future. An important skill is deciding which decisions to make when. This deciding about deciding confuses many people even programmers.

Ward comments on a recent #FedWiki issue, after the CoffeeScript conversion has been completed.

Removing the #jQuery dependency is the next target.

@feb Witzig. Wieder eine Geschichte föderierter Netzwerke, in welcher das Verbundwiki #FedWiki nicht auftaucht. Herrlich so über Jahre unter dem Radar zu fliegen …

Das förderierte Wiki ist ein bisschen anders.

ja hat so erstmal kein ssl-zertifikat. erstmal ignorieren.

@rosano Why I meant that your idea of generalising lenses maps very well on the whole domain of data processing, and why I mentioned (serverless) functions, which can fulfill this task, is:

We once understood that #fedwiki transporters can be considered as functions, the basic Input-Process-Output pattern.

- https://github.com/fedwiki/wiki-plugin-transport
- https://github.com/dobbs/image-transporter
- https://github.com/WardCunningham/image-transporter

My deployment of an image transporter is currently down, but the idea sticks, here: always produce wiki JSON.

@mspro Es gibt andere Arten der Föderation und des Digitalen Föderalismus.

Im Verbundwiki #fedwiki finde ich Qualitäten die es an keinem anderen Ort im Internet gibt.

Ob es wohl daran liegt, dass es eine Gemeinschaft von stillen Schreiberlingen ist, die indirekt Inhalte teilen, und nicht eine Gemeinschaft aus Leuten im Speakers Corner, die alle um eine flüchtige, im Feed verschwindende Aufmerksamkeit ringen?

Immer den ganzen Feed abzuscrollen kostet ganz schön Zeit, um allen gleich zuzuhören.

@naturzukunft @evan When looking into #fedwiki:matrix.org, I find this post from last year by @k9ox

And there is:

* https://github.com/Nutomic/ibis

@tk Ouuaiisss, ca existe encore et ca bouge. Suit le chez @k9ox et visite nous à #fedwiki:matrix.org

@bob As an addition, because @bhaugen's post below resurfaced in the #fedwiki chat:

Using Google identity was never a Valley assumption. It was useful and helped onboarding.

@k9ox regularly comments on how Google is making life worse for many, e.g. by imposing HTTPS on the web or making their identity ubiquitous.

Wiki also supports GitHub login, next to OAuth2 and the friends module.

* https://github.com/fedwiki/wiki-security-friends

I can show you examples, or help with setup if you like.

@trondhjort @marick @newcrafts @kentbeck I'm just wondering if we could use Ward's Federated Wiki for this: possibly writing this book together? #FedWiki #FederatedWiki @k9ox

We have some experience with supporting collective writing of books.

@rgb @SReyCoyrehourcq @k9ox What #FedWiki would need (in my opinion!) to unfold its full potential is an educational platform that helps other communities to adopt it. But that would have to be an interactive process, rather than "dead" documentation. More like a Linux install party than like Linux documentation.

@rgb @SReyCoyrehourcq @k9ox When I started realizing this, it felt frustrating. It's not how we deal with software elsewhere. Software,is seen as a product with producers, consumers, documentation, etc.

#FedWiki feels more like "situated software", i.e. software built and evolved by its users following their needs. And that's how I think user-facing software *should* work. Tools adapt to communities, not the other way round.

@SReyCoyrehourcq @rgb @toxi As far as I can see, #fedwiki is not so much a piece of software as a community. The code is there in the open, but without the community it's not easy to figure out how to use it, in particular use if effectively.

The collaborative link as the core concept of #fedwiki

@mattodon

Probably @rgb can better answer that question than me, but here's what the documentation says:

http://fed.wiki.org/view/neighborhood

It's not "followers" though. Rrelations in #FedWiki work in the opposite direction. It's the references in *my* Wiki that define the neigborhood of sites whose pages I can then search and import from.

Thanks to @rgb, I have joined the universe of #FedWiki:

No earth-shaking contents for now, as I am still exploring this new toy in my toolbox.

@nicol @smallcircles @steve @deadsuperhero @neil

That's exactly it. The image only shows sharing notes privately with Friends, but there'll also be reblogging à la Tumblr, and co-editing à la #FedWiki.

All they told me was that "#Solid wasn't ready" (but that was 2y ago) & Inrupt's focus was corporate and government.

@cogdog @Telias Yes, and… it can still lead to federating these signals, as in #FedWiki.

I've known about fedwiki for a good amount of those 10 years but haven't really sat down & tried using it myself. Something about the use of colored boxes in the UI really threw me.

Recently I've been tuning in to their conversations in #fedwiki:matrix.org and was digging around in some of the old videos looking for a recording of a recent meeting about integrating Observable.

It would fascinating to see a rigorous academic review comparing and contrasting Wikipedia and its classic cathedral-building development model, with the bazaar of the Smallest Federated Wiki (#FedWiki) network.

(For those unfamiliar with it, I'm referencing the classic #OpenSource evangelism piece 'The Cathedral and the Bazaar', by #EricRaymond:
