Le format MHTML

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME_Encapsulation_of_Aggregate_Documents,_such_as_HTML

si j'ai bien compris permet de réunir en un seul document un fichier html avec ses styles et ses images et ses scripts, sans se trimballer une page + un dossier). Sur le papier, c'est ouvert et c'est super pratique pourquoi c'est pas plus répandu ??

Ca pourrait faire la concurrence à l'infame Adobe et son PDF pour les documents riches... 🤔

@mike Which is weird since you can find most podcasts by typing "<title> podcast" into your favorite search engine.

All other decentralized things would benefit greatly from some kind of searchable recommendation sharing thingy ala del.icio.us.

Hey kids when you're designing awesome decentralised stuff, don't forget discoverability. I mean podcasts, conceptually, are perfectly decentralised but when I ask someone about their podcast 90% of the time they tell me to look it up on iTunes.

Proudly written in PHP, Pixelfed has embraced a UI driven development approach.

Users don't care if :pixelfed: is using the latest or coolest framework or fancy tech, they care about the experience and what they see or feel.

I'd love to see more "uncool" projects in the fediverse.

### Molecule

> Molecule provides support for testing with multiple instances, operating systems and distributions, virtualization providers, test frameworks and testing scenarios.

Woah I've really fallen in love with Molecule for developing #Ansible roles. Need to start adding it to all my roles 😍😍

There is git-ssb (Scuttlebutt) which is fully P2P git repos with a gui. Probably isn't that usable yet though.

This is a note to people moving their repositories blindly to Gitlab.org: do you know Google is actually a huge investor in Gitlab?

The issue is not about Microsoft buying Github. The issue is about centralization and silos.

You do not solve that by moving your data from one silo to another.

You solve that by relying on small providers you can trust, or by becoming a provider yourself.

This is sorta what Sensorica created Value Equations for. Keep track of all the contributions. When some money comes in, reward all the contributors.

Here''s how it works in their software. Might not fit in all details, but I am mostly trying to give you the idea.

Here's another version of the same idea: https://github.com/ktorn/vdp

To build such a thing requires some innovations (that may already exist):

- Discovery of other Adlis servers (each Adlis server is an actor?) or Adlis-compatible (NodeInfo?)
- Sharing information about new Adlis-compatible peers (P2P sharing algorithm that isn't N squared?)
- I don't want Adlis to have users (people) and instead let people use their accounts from other instances to create, edit, publish, or leave comments (OAuth2?)
- Create the #ActivityStreams extension to federate the specs

This would let #ActivityPub developers go to any Adlis server to see all ActivityStreams extensions and specs building off AP. So the knowledge is distributed such that it appears to be centralized at every instance (like a centralized AP authority), but the actual power would be distributed to many communities (unlike a centralized AP authority).

The communities adopting this tool could be domain specific (ex: ForgeFed) or software specific (ex: Mastodon). IDK it's not up to me.

Or, so I thought. :) Looking at other discussions floating around, I want to get the ideas out there. It overlaps with existing ideas, and some of it is not new.

First, I am trying to get the copyright to a tool I am calling Adlis. I call it a "tool" but it would be an ActivityPub server. It would be a tool for existing communities to create, publish, maintain, and invite commentary on their ActivityStreams extensions.

When publishing, the spec would be federated to other Adlis servers.

I would love that all Fediverse networks have a common endpoint with a common API URL like:

example.net/api/info

{"software":"Mastodon", "version":"2.71"}

That would easily allow applications to know what network is running behind the domain name.

#Mastodon #Pleroma #Peertube #Pixelfed #GNUSocial #Friendica #Misskey

How do you talk to your friends about Mastodon without sounding like a crazy person???
