The strenghts and weaknesses of atproto and activitypub.


There is a lot bluesky gets right, and a lot it gets wrong, the same is true with Activitypub.

(Some) strengths of Atproto


Atproto is content-addressed, and portable. This means that posts can exist independantly of their original server.
Instead of giving posts a https uri, which will stop working if a user moves servers or their server disappears, they give them at uris.
For example, this post on bsky.app: bsky.app/profile/ponder.ooo/po…
Has the at:// link is: at://did:plc:i4bfh2tyxihe2ksplmtcoopk/app.bsky.feed.post/3lk4yrmyugc2f.
The post does exist over https at https://porcini.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.repo.getRecord?repo=did:plc:i4bfh2tyxihe2ksplmtcoopk&collection=app.bsky.feed.post&rkey=3lk4yrmyugc2f.


Atproto is very easy to build apps on. For example, tangled.sh, frontpage.fyi and flushes.app are all apps built on atproto.
Atproto allows more flexibility in what an app can do, as opposed to lemmy or mastodon's api.


Atproto is better documented. The ActivityPub spec leaves a lot up to the reader.


Atproto has some really good moderation tools for users. People can make public blocklists of users, and people can subscribe to labellers, people or services which give users/posts a label.

Weaknesses of Atproto


almost everyone is on bluesky's PDSes. I thought mastodon.social and lemmy.world were bad, but the people on alternate PDSes altogether adds up to only a few thousand.

Its decentralised identifiers are actually completely centralised!
DID:PLC, their DID method, originally stood for placeholder, but they renamed it to Public Ledger of Credentials.
To use it, you have to use plc.directory.
You can use a DID:WEB DID, but if your website linked to it goes down you lose your identity.
(I find it extremely funny that its not actually a requirement for a decentralised identifier to be decentralised. )

Everything on the network has to be public to work.
since relays have to be able to collect all the information on the network for Appviews to be able to make use of that information, anyone can find out who's blocking someone, or who is on a list, or who's following who, with no way of hiding that information.
Private accounts and posts are impossible to do on atproto.

Since everything is public, DMs (for now) are centralised. They do seem like they want to change that though.

Strengths of ActivityPub


AP (ActivityPub) is better distributed. While it has large servers (like mastodon.social or lemmy.world (and threads, but we don't talk about threads)) the majority of users are not on those servers. There is no single point of failure. If bluesky disappeared tomorrow, atproto would still exist, it would just have a negligable amount of users.

One node in the network lets you do everything, as opposed to bluesky which has three parts (You can do stuff without a relay though). This means you can trust a lot less of the network.

ActivityPub scales better than ATProto. Atproto scales quadratically, meaning that having a lot of nodes in the network harms performance.
AP scales horizontally, meaning it works better with a lot of small servers.

ActivityPub can keep stuff private, like blocks and posts.
Though, a lot of implementations can leak posts.

Weaknesses of ActivityPub


The spec leaves so much out. They didn't propose a way to make sure requests between servers are validated, so mastodon chose HTTP signatures.
They didn't add any way of looking up handles, so mastodon chose webfinger.

A posts's id is its https uri, this means thatif a server goes down, stuff can't be fetched. A user can't move their followers if their server goes down (you can on ATproto). There is a standard to fix this, FEP-ef61, but it breaks compatibility with a lot of implementations.

Missing information is a problem. Its not really a problem on lemmy, but on mastodon likes and replies from other servers may not make it to your server at all (you can fetch replies in newer versions of mastodon though).


All this aside, I do think the two can coexist. I don't see anything like lemmy working on atproto. ActivityPub seems closer to social networking, as opposed to social media.
Something like facebook would be impossible to make on atproto, because not everything is made to be public.

I am hoping for a bridge, but good (bridgy is opt-in, making it useless).

Yes, this does help, but atproto as a whole still doesn't scale well:

In the beginning of our network, we have 26 users, which conveniently for us map to each letter of the English alphabet: [Alice, Bob, Carol, ... Zack]. Each user sends one message per day, which is intended to have one recipient. (This may sound unrealistic, but this is fine to do to model our scenario.) To simplify things, we'll have each user send a message in a ring: Alice sends a message to Bob, Bob sends a message to Carol, and so on, all the way up to Zack, who simply we wrap around and have message Alice. This could be because these messages have specific intended recipients or it could be because Bob is the sole "follower" of Alice's posts, Carol is the sole "follower" of Bob's, etc.

Let's look at what happens in a single day under both systems.

Under message passing, Alice sends her message to Bob. Only Bob need receive the message. So on and so forth.

From an individual self-hosted server, only one message is passed per day: 1.
From the fully decentralized network, the total number of messages passed, zooming out, is the number of participants in the network: 26.
Under the public-gods-eye-view-shared-heap model, each user must know of all messages to know what may be relevant. Each user must receive all messages.

From an individual self-hosted server, 26 messages must be received.

Zooming out, the number of messages which must be transmitted in the day is 26 * 26: 676, since each user receives each message.

Okay, so what does that mean? How bad is this? With 26 users, this doesn't sound like so much. Now let's add 5 users.

Under message passing:

Per server, still 1 message received per user per day.
Per the network, it's 5 extra messages transmitted per day, which makes sense: we've added 5 users.
Under the public-gods-eye-view-shared-heap model:

Per server: 5 new messages received per user per day.

Per the network, it's ((31 * 31) - (26 * 26)): 285 new messages per day!

But we aren't actually running networks of 26 users. We are running networks of millions of users. What would happen if we had a million self-hosted users and five new users were added to the network? Zooming out, once again, the message passing system simply has five new messages sent. Under the public shared heap model, it is 10,000,025 new messages sent! For adding five new self-hosted users! (And that's even just with our simplified model of only sending one message per day per user!)

As well as this, if there was a reddit-like atproto AppView, setting up multiple instances of it would still result in the same problems.

in reply to irelephant [he/him]

But this is assuming private messages no?

When 99% of the public traffic is on posts that will federate to most servers, this model becomes irrelevant.

Capitalism is when the guy who builds a social media app and shares it freely with the world gets next to nothing for their effort while the fascist convicted criminal who uses their work makes billions.

Please, tell me again how capitalism breeds innovation. All it breeds are greedy psychopathic parasites (aka billionaires).

Open social media software enables all users alike, the ones who want to genuinely connect with other people on the left hand, and on the right hand, the ones who want to scam as much as they can out of NPCs just for a higher score carved into their grave marker. They each benefit from the same work, but one side tends to kick back more to the toolmakers.

But that's not capitalism. The only innovation capitalism breeds is how to capture more of the consumer benefit of trade.

Programming Mission: Let’s Fix the Fediverse Discovery Gap


Here’s a small but powerful challenge for #openweb builders – and a perfect #DIY project if you’re fed up with the current #geekproblem. I’ve been trying to find #Fediverse instances that actually cover my town, Oxford, UK, so I can help promote and grow them locally. You’d think this would be simple, right? But… nope.

Tried the standard “instance pickers”? Dead ends. Tried generic web searches? Useless #SEO sludge. Tried maps like this one, a good start umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/f…, but nothing covering Oxford.

Why is this happening? Because our current tools focus only on technical facts (server specs, software used, uptime, etc.) and ignore the uncontrolled (dangerous) metadata that actually makes discovery meaningful:

  • What’s the instance for?
  • Who does it serve?
  • What community does it represent?
  • Where is it rooted geographically or socially?

This is the #geekproblem in action: great code, but no way to find things people actually want to use. What’s the fix? Someone (maybe you?) could create a community-focused discovery tool that:

  • Encourages instance admins to tag with location, community, topics, etc.
  • Provides search/filter UI that works for real people, not sysadmins
  • Uses the Fediverse’s open standards (#ActivityPub + #microformats) to pull this info in
  • Maybe even integrates with OpenStreetMap or a simple opt-in geo-tagged registry
  • Outputs something friendly – like “Find your Fediverse community in your town”

This is not a hard project, it’s a weekend hack for someone who cares, but it has real social value as it helps bridge infrastructure to lived communities. That’s the core of the #openweb reboot.

So for people who can’t see why this matter. If we want the Fediverse to grow beyond techies and Twitter refugees, we need to help people find their people. Local discovery is key. Place-based communities are still powerful, especially when rebuilding trust, mutual aid, and shared media in a collapsing world.

So, want a simple mission? Build a tool that helps people find #Fediverse instances by town, city, or region. Start with Oxford, but make it global. Make it open. Make it federated. And when you do? I’ll be the first to push it out.

#Fediverse #OMN #openweb #4opens #FediverseDiscovery #programmingchallenge #Geekproblem #MutualAid #CodeForGood #FOSS #localweb #trustnotcontrol #KISS


Update: my suggestion of path, a simple UX:

A few dropdowns over the map,

  • Region (countries are regions, anti-nationalistic)
  • City/area (a county or city)
  • local (village, area in city)
  • Them maybe latter hyper local (but not for now)

Then we have subject – it would be normal to have a multi subject hashtag map, that updates on each click – adding the clicks to a list on the side – with “new button” to jump back to start.

Then you have advanced for the normal tech stuff… which currently is the front end on most pickers. This would also be displayed on the info box for each instance on the map so still central, just not AT THE FRONT.

UPDATE: can just pull all the existing data out of the current sites like instances.social/list#lang=en&… as these are all #4opens. So the projected site could be up and running with full data in little time. Yes, you would have to ask people to tag their installs to geolocate their instances. This could be done a hard way or a simple #KISS way like any admin in the instance adding a #hashtag with a geolocation hashtag after it.

Ideas in comments, please.

in reply to Josh

The image shows a parking lot with a trailer in the foreground. The trailer is beige with a wooden platform and has a large wicker basket-like structure on top, labeled "RIO GRANDE BALLOONS." The basket is secured with straps and appears to be a hot air balloon basket. The trailer is hitched to a vehicle, likely a pickup truck, which is not fully visible. In the background, there are two parked vehicles: a silver SUV and a dark-colored pickup truck. The setting is outdoors, with trees and a clear blue sky visible. The ground is paved, and there is a small landscaped area with shrubs near the trailer. The scene is well-lit, suggesting it is daytime.

@feb@loma.ml hat schon recht nur, ich würde es nicht als Ausgrenzung bezeichnen sondern so wie der ganze Post verfasst ist, als sich unterordnen zu müssen um mitspielen zu dürfen.

Das #Fediversum, konkret #Mastodon & #Blog:


Fediversum das ja eigentlich Fediverse heißt als Hashtag um mehr Reichweite zu generieren und mit Mastodon und Blog eben um explizit die eigenen folgenden anzusprechen. Also nicht um auszugrenzen aber irgendwie wird es dann doch lieber gesehen wenn nur die die der Leitkultur eben des Mastodon Netzwerkes entsprechen mitreden.

Also mir würden da noch genug Krisenherde einfallen über die niemand redet. Genug Politiker die ihren eigenen Weg gehen. Die Eingrenzung auf ein Atomprogramm wo niemand über die anderen Staaten redet usw.

Wir sehen das jeden Tag und überall, was nicht dem Mainstream entspricht wird verteufelt. Wenn sich dann doch nach einer gewissen Zeit herausstellt, dass da was dran war, dann heißt es ... na, wie hätten wir den wissen können.

Und doch: Von wenigen Ausnahmen abgesehen bleibt der Ton respektvoll, dialogisch.


Naja, man muss ja nicht wie Donald Dumb auftreten um die eigene Meinung zu vertreten.

Mir persönlich ist es egal da ich nur Hashtags lese (ich muss auch nicht mitreden) und das Mastodon Netzwerk naja, es hat schon seine Gründe warum das Teil nicht wächst wie es sich manche erhoffen.

@Fl👀f, the nature observer.
Danke für deine Gedanken. Deiner Argumentation kann ich folgen.

Vielleicht waren wir vor einigen Jahren tatsächlich zu rücksichtsvoll, um den Kern des Fediverse zu bewahren. Inzwischen sehe ich mich in genau diesem Toleranzparadoxon gefangen, wie oben markiert: Ich soll akzeptieren, dass Respekt und Rücksicht in der Gemeinschaft nur noch eine untergeordnete Rolle spielen soll. Hier wird Gefolgschaft eingefordert. Unterordnung, wie du es ausgedrückt hast.
Ohne Respekt und Rücksicht geht es aber nicht. Genau das hat das Fediverse immer von Twitter, Facebook und anderen kommerziellen Plattformen unterschieden. Das hat es zu dem angenehmen und netten Ort gemacht.

Bitte helft mir, diese Bedenken zu verstehen. Denn aus meiner Sicht macht doch gerade #Freiwilligkeit das #Fediversum aus: Wir können an verschiedensten Orten, müssen aber nirgendwo mitmachen. Wenn mich jemand dominieren will, kann ich ausweichen oder auch einfach stummschalten und jenen meine #Aufmerksamkeit schenken, die ich als interessant & dialogisch erlebe. Es ist diese #Freiheit, die ich so schätze & auf #Mastodon & #Blogs konkretisiere, ohne andere zu negieren.🤔🤓🌈

@Michael Blume

Wollen wir versuchen ein wenig zu reflektieren.

Auswahl der bekanntesten Fediverse Projekte: friendica; hubzilla; funkwhale; mastodon; pixelfed; misskey; peertube; plume; lemmy.

Was du hier siehst, sind eine Reihe von Projekten, die als Zugangssoftware in das Fediverse dienen. Es gibt schätzungsweise 150 Projekte, die sich alle mit dem Netzwerk verbunden haben.
Keines der Projekte ist das Fediverse oder kann einen Anspruch darauf erheben das Fediverse zu sein. Sie alle gemeinsam repräsentieren und schaffen erst die Infrastruktur, über die wir uns hier unterhalten.

Sie teilen ihre Ressourcen, um Daten von einen zum anderen Punkt zu transportieren. Es handelt sich demnach um ein virtuelles Netzwerk, dass nach festgelegten Regeln kommuniziert.

Baum des Lebens

Die verschiedenen Projekte haben sich darüber hinaus spezialisiert, um unterschiedliche Dienste bereitzustellen. Mastodon versteckt diese Vielfalt vor dir und lasst alles so aussehen, als wären wir alle nur das Eine. Dadurch geht dir die Vielfalt verloren, in der du dich bewegst. Allein in diesem Thread haben drei verschiedene Projekte mit dir kommuniziert, ohne dass du das zur Kenntnis genommen hast.

Diese Vielfalt zu verleugnen, ist in etwa so, als würdest du behaupten, es gäbe nur Männer in Deutschland. Wir beide wissen, dass das nicht stimmt.
Diskussionen finden über alle Plattformen statt, nicht nur auf Mastodon oder auf Blogs. Es gibt nur das eine Netzwerk, über das wir verbunden sind.

@Fl👀f, the nature observer. @JamesBont

in reply to Matthias

TL;DR Ohne den technischen Hintergrund verstehen zu müssen. Die Software die man verwendet um mit Menschen im Fediverse zu kommunizieren legt die verfügbaren Funktionen fest. Stichwort Zeichenlimit, Anzahl von Bildern. Und aufgrund des Marketings speziell in Deutschland glauben eben viele das was möglich ist legt Mastodon fest. Und eingefleischte Mastodon Jünger argumentieren dann eben, naja wenn man lange Texte schreiben will soll man eben einen Blog starten usw. eben ausgrenzen weil man sich nicht an die Regeln der Mastodon Community hält obwohl diese die meisten Instanzen und User stellen.
