Top 13 Go Activitypub Projects

Activitypub

  1. owncast

    Take control over your live stream video by running it yourself. Streaming + chat out of the box.

    Project mention: Hacktoberfest for Low or No-Code Professionals: Contribute to OSS Projects | dev.to | 2024-10-04

    Owncast is a free and open-source live video streaming and web chat server. They are accepting low-code and no-code Hacktoberfest contributions, including writing documentation, providing design feedback, and advocating for Owncast.

  3. WriteFreely

    A clean, Markdown-based publishing platform made for writers. Write together and build a community.

    Project mention: The Home Server Journey - 6: Your New Blogging Career | dev.to | 2024-10-08

    When looking for something more dynamic, I initially though about using Plume, since it's easy to integrate with some applications I plan to deploy later, but unfortunately it's not well maintained anymore. As Ghost or Wordpress seem overkill, I ended up opting for the conveniences of WriteFreely: it lets me create and edit posts in-place, with Markdown support and no need to upload new files. However, that comes with a cost: it requires a MySQL[-compatible] database

  4. gotosocial

    Fast, fun, small ActivityPub server. READ ONLY MIRROR! Now on Codeberg instead: https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial

  5. activity

    ActivityStreams & ActivityPub in golang, oh my! (by go-fed)

  6. Activity-Relay

    Yet another powerful customizable ActivityPub relay server written in Go.

  7. emissary

    The Social Web Toolkit (by EmissarySocial)

  9. tootik

    A federated, text-based social network with a Gemini frontend (by dimkr)

    Project mention: Tootik: A federated nanoblogging service with a Gemini front end | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-01

  10. fedbox

    Reference implementation of an ActivityPub service using go-ap packages (mirror repository)

  11. servitor

    A command-line Fediverse client that doesn’t require a server

  12. owl-blogs

    A simple blogging solution with IndieWeb and Fediverse in mind

    Project mention: Creating your own federated microblog | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-24

    I've added ActivityPub to my blog system (https://h4kor.github.io/owl-blogs/) as just another way of subscribing to the blog, but found that it is a good model to support interactions.

  13. no-fed

    nostr-activitypubthings bridge

  14. RssTooter

    ActivityPub server to toot RSS feeds.

    Project mention: Ask HN: Is there any software you only made for your own use but nobody else? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-07-04

    Does not strictly match the "will never see the light of the day for anyone else."

    But forked an ActivityPub server (GoToSocial) to proxy Rss feeds (https://github.com/Timshel/RssTooter).

    Spent a couple of days on it initially (but had made something similar for Nitter before).

NOTE: The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars. The number of mentions indicates repo mentiontions in the last 12 Months or since we started tracking (Dec 2020).
