Most people who #selfhost have *a* server. Early on #pumpio demanded that it be the only web server running on your system. The "workaround" for this was "have a dedicated pump.io vm and proxy it to your normal server", although with some config hackery people got it to behave behind nginx.

To be fair, the !StatusNet network that Evan was running became unmanageable -- it cost too much to run, and I think Evan was funding most of it himself (although there were/are a number of paying #StatusNet customers). Evan developed #PumpIO to reduce the number of servers needed to run a federated network, and purposely kept the UI to a minimum to encourage federation. Sadly, that didn't work. Porting identi.ca from StatusNet to PumpIO was intended to introduce people to PumpIO as well as reduce Evan's costs. That partly worked; identi.ca is alive and well as a community, although much reduced from its glory days around 2013. But the #bifurcation did spawn a large number of new StatusNet / !GNUsocial instances, so that was a good thing too. But you're right in that PumpIO never gained widespread traction, the proof of which is in its lack of continued development. In that respect #GNUsocial and !OStatus are more successful than PumpIO

By the way, if your #Pump.io account was hosted on microca\.st, it is likely gone forever (which should be no surprise after the site has been down for more than a year). The domain expired and someone else has it (for sale).

@internetturtle #Pump.io's new lead dev Strugee is pretty active.
-
Distropico was persuaded to join the #Pump.io project as a committer. #Compa will be repurposed as a Foursquare clone.
-
#Compa is changing to be more like Foursquare. Distopico has been added to #Pump.io.

@kris Were you able to add new contacts on #Pump.io?
-
@kris Make that #ActivityPub. #ActivityPump was the original name for #Pump.io, back when EvanP was first trying to develop a lower-resource-use federated social server. (There was never an explanation for the name change, either. I always thought AP was a better name.)
-
@kris #ActivityPump is not quite the same as the #Pump.io protocol, so they may or may not work together yet. I believe you can subscribe to other Pump users from that person's account profile.
-
@kris I used to use #Pump.io, but the instance I used went down permanently in 2016 after years of unreliability. I still may be able to answer your questions.

@lnxw48a1 hello do you use #pumpio ? I have questions about it
-
Est ce que certains ont testé #pumpio ? j'ai ouvert un compte hier mais ça marchait pas . Aujourd'hui j'ai pu écrire mon 1er message !!! Je vais tester activitypub
-
I removed my #microca.st #pump.io account from AndStatus. Consider that account and the server that hosts it to be abandoned.

Interesante charla de Alex Jordan (mantenedor principal de #pumpio) en el pasado #LibrePlanet sobre los nuevos estándares (concretamente #ActivityPub, sobre el cual creo que interviene también el propio @cwebber desde el público) que están surgiendo para aunar e interconectar todo el contenido producido socialmente en las redes libres federadas. No solo las de formato típico que usamos para publicar notas (#Diaspora, #Mastodon, #GNUsocial, etc.), sino también para otros servicios paralelos como #MediaGoblin, para el que, según dice, ya se ha desarrollado un prototipo que permite a los usuarios comentar (o suscribirse a) contenidos de otras instancias, con lo cual mejoraría muchísimo el servicio...

@usbhump Evan P's Status\.Net startup lost its funding. Around the same time, he was trying to get the developers of the underlying protocols that compose #OStatus to agree to make changes to their protocols to enable enhanced privacy. Among the organizations he was trying to motivate was Google, which had recently introduced #GPlus and was no long interested in the open web.
In a hurry to cut costs, he developed the #Pump.io software and protocol to be simpler to develop and cheaper to operate, and to offer some additional privacy built into the protocol. And also to be independent of the progress some of these protocols.
Pump was built with the idea that most federated networks would switch protocols to be compatible. That did not happen. But the hope is that its descendant #ActivityPub will unite the disparate networks.
@gargron Don't oversell AP. If you start to sound like a used car salesperson, people will become suspicious of your motives and the veracity of your claims.
