Hello From Friendica - Quick Activity Pub cross compatibility test

@fediverse

Hi, sorry, I hope this isn't to spammy, I was revising some writings on the various social media protocols and wanted to test some stuff before I stated it as fact.

Anyway, I might as well provide some potentially interesting information instead of just completely worthless spam. What it appears (and confirms if you're seeing this) is that you can post to lemmy via a blogging/microblogging instance as long as you '@' the lemmy community. First line is the title and the rest is the post itself.

Have a good night everyone.

Why hello there! πŸ‘‹

I was under the impression that friendica supported groups or communities and should be able to follow lemmy communities more natively (without using the microblog interface)??

If it helps, I’ve posted about how to bridge microblogs and lemmy before:

And on taking advantage of the new automatic hastagging: https://hachyderm.io/@maegul/112720255264101773

… which is more relevant on the mastodon end but also rather helpful IMO and a major improvement if people take advantage of it.

@nate0 @fediverse Sir, can you just take a fediverse url (especially lemmy one) and pull that particular post to reply or like in friendica?
I tried last time but failed. 😣

Also my test message from Mastodon. πŸ˜…

Hello from the Lemmy side!

[–] simpleguy@gaminginthe.cloud 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@DaTingGoBrrr It is super amazing how we all are connected πŸ₯³

[–] DaTingGoBrrr@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

I completely agree! 🀩

[–] nate0@nerdica.net 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@simpleguy Yeah, there should be a permalink icon and a fediverse icon (at least on desktop) on each post that you can click on for a link. Pasting that in search on any instance 'should' pull up the post or reply. Worked last night for me on Friendica, but just failed right now with a different link for some reason. The same link that failed on Friendica now just worked on my old Mastodon account, though, so could be be a hiccup or a slightly slow server in my case.

[–] simpleguy@gaminginthe.cloud 2 points 11 months ago

@nate0 @fediverse That was reason I left friendica. I thought it can rule Everything and will be best for my current rssified setup. Writing this from Mastodon and it is good so far.

How do I view your profile? I went to your server, but it just tells me to login. I couldn't find any instance feed or search button.

Edit: its here https://nerdica.net/profile/nate0

The frendica front-page could use some UX improvements

Hello!

Do you have a link to see how we look from your end?

[–] Die4Ever@programming.dev 4 points 11 months ago

Just grab the permalink/fedilink from the post (multi colored icon)

Ohh wow, that's really neat! Hello from the other side!

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 11 months ago

Question, how would you post to a community whose name is repeated across different lemmy instances? !community@host?

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@kbin.run 2 points 11 months ago

@nate0@nerdica.net - Super useful. I've just learned this syntax. Thanks!
