Pre-Alpha ActivityPub-related bug reports

@julian I sent a Follow activity and received this Accept activity:

{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "actor": "https://community.nodebb.org/uid/2",
  "object": {
    "actor": "https://mitra.social/users/silverpill",
    "type": "Follow"
  },
  "type": "Accept"
}

It doesn't specify what activity has been accepted (the id field is missing).

Thank you, I'll add the id to the object and hopefully that resolves.

Relatedly, I have never been able to send activities to your instance, or *key instances, so it's not related to just the Follow.

Additionally, both your profile and ones on wedistribute.org don't resolve properly here.

@julian Actually I can see this reply, the Create activity was processed without errors

My server responds to deliveries with 202 Accepted, not 200 OK, perhaps this is interpreted as error? I don't know what else could

julian

Might be, but iirc I only check that the response code starts with a 2.

Will have a closer look if I have time this weekend, otherwise Monday.

Fixed a minor issue involving replying to topics in /world (in that it actually works now).

@julian is there any way to click our way to "https://community.nodebb.org/world" from this forum?

I am typing the full url each time, but wondering if there is any shortcut?

julian

@crazycells sure, you can add it to the nav bar. Haven't done that here since it still needs a bit of polish, but soon...

Maybe not a 'bug' but more accurately, todo
https://community.nodebb.org/user/the-skyfoxx/following only shows local (nodebb people I'm following, not fediverse)

julian

@The-SkyFoxx hmm, this seems to work though?

NodeBB Community

A community to talk about development and ask questions about NodeBB modern forum software

NodeBB Community (community.nodebb.org)

Seems we can mark it as a bug, then

When I follow, the browser (safari) is registering it as successful.

However when I refresh, it's showing that I haven't followed the person.

For some reason, it seems as if I am getting success follows, but they don't persist.

I haven't done anything special to get an account on mastodon or the fediverse. My account only exists on Nodebb.

Thanks @The-SkyFoxx, I'll take a look and see if I can figure out what's going on.

Can you try following my other account [email protected]?

@julian said in Pre-Alpha ActivityPub-related bug reports:

Can you try following my other account [email protected]?

Same deal. I am following these steps:

Go to: https://community.nodebb.org/user/[email protected]
Click follow
Get the success message:
State of the follow button changes to "Unfollow"
When I refresh, the follow button changes to "Follow" again

(Just like the video above)
