    If you're interested in an ActivityPub that works like that, I work on one called FedBOX[1]. It doesn't have clients at the moment, but that's how I planned to have it used.

    Well, there is one already as the reference implementation for a suite of libraries I wrote. You can find it at https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox. (Contributions welcome)

    Also my project, mentioned elsewhere in the thread: https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox, supports filesystem storage directly.
  • Go-Fed: ActivityPub in Go
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 24 Nov 2022
    Hi, I'm the developer of go-ap. Which parts of it are giving you trouble? I'm always open to answer questions to the project's mailing list: https://lists.sr.ht/~mariusor/activitypub-go

    There is a rather hidden wiki that has some more information than strictly the comments in the code: https://man.sr.ht/~mariusor/go-activitypub/

    If you are looking for examples, there is a reference server at https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox

    There is a Go implementation of a generic ActivityPub service. I am actively working on it as we speak: https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox. (You can see a demo instance of it at https://federated.id)
  • First release of LemmyBB, a federated bulletin board written in Rust

    That's pretty cool actually. I've been tossing around the idea of a federating forum style UX that uses ActivityPub, and I figured it would be easy using something like this https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox

    I don't know how many generic AP backend servers are out there, but it looks like Lemmy is becoming one. I hope they keep with the AP spec and allow any functionality in addition to it to be modular.

    > What we really need in this landscape is dead simple services.

    I'm working on exactly that: a service that acts as an ActivityPub server (code[1], example[2], example application running on top of it[3]) for users in the form of a static binary. It supports multiple storage backends that can be selected individually or all together at build time and it can be extended to many more.
