  1. I know there is some ongoing work, eg. socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/.

    Some people will argue against this, but the Atmosphere is (slowly) decentralizing (stefanbohacek.online/@stefan/1) and it will soon run into the same issues we're dealing with, like being asked to log in when you click a link to a post that's not on your server/AppView/what have you.

    I'm sure they will figure this out, with their deep crypto VC money pockets, but if we can figure this out first, it could really give us a major advantage.

  2. I was going to post this under @botwiki, but polls on that server are limited to only 4 options (can you imagine?), so let me ask here:

    Which social media APIs do you use the most for development nowadays? (Not as a user, please see reply for the distinction.)

  3. How extensive is #hashtag #search on #Mastodon? I've been reading about it but I know my searches are often missing things.

    Is there a clear #explanation about how that works? Like which instances get hit and how far back it goes?

    I'm also interested in #cultural views. What are the understood rules around hashtag use and what you do with hashtagged items. (I've seen evidence that hashtags ≠ sharable.)
