@activitypubtestsuite - question for the group: even if we were not to use it’s codebase, is there value in getting the old ActivityPub.rocks test suite live again? Just to see the old test in action?
Ricardo: ✊ Thank you! Can anyone help point him to the best code to try to resuscitate the web site ActivityPub.rocks 1.0 test suite page? Or a better later fork?
Brilliant. BTW, if we created something short term like a Patreon to help support this work to you or anyone else who actively helps on this project... would that be of assist?
I'll buy the domain we use as a temp, but I would think long term the name should be test.activitypub.rocks to mirror Webmention.rocks and as an homage to the original.
With the upcoming #meta#Project92 Fediverse service, there has been a, well, robust discussion of how to avoid threats looming. Those advocating mass-preemptive defederation make three cases for it.
➡️ To avoid data mining ...which Defederation does virtually zero to avoid any big tech entity scraping all the fedi public social graph today - Want proof?

The next argument is about poorly moderated P92 user posts and ad spam.
Which I'll discuss next.
@ophiocephalic
If they did a big push to their 1.6 billion IG users (who knows if they will but they could) literally days later they would still be larger then the entire monthly active user base of the Fedi - even if we did a full preemptive block.
