#longformtext — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #longformtext, aggregated by home.social.

  1. @Anuj Ahooja Friendica has had full support for formatted long-form articles since its inception 15 years ago. The same goes for all its surviving descendants, created by the same developer: Hubzilla from 2015, (streams) from 2021, Forte from 2024. In addition, Hubzilla can be used to post federating long-form articles (which are automatically sent to Fediverse connections and Atom feed subscribers) and optionally also to post non-federating long-form articles (which aren't sent anywhere).

    Friendica has also been able to subscribe to both RSS and Atom feeds since its inception. The same goes for Hubzilla.

    This is not new to the Fediverse at all.

  2. "One of the big pain points has been how subscribers to #longformtext from platforms like WordPress, WriteFreely, Plume and Ghost.org see the text in their microblogging platforms like Mastodon or Threads. Often, the data is abbreviated or misformatted. #FEPb2b8 is, in part, a way to improve and standardize this problem.
    The participants in the project are aiming to have better standards support from both #publishers and consumers over the next few months."
