on @SwitchToBonfire / an alternative to centralised proprietary surveillance platforms. #elixirlang

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

I've long escaped this platform that tried to lock us in and enshitify by joining the #fediverse. We launched Bonfire Social: federated, community-first, modular. Now building for organising, open science, mutual aid, collective decisions. Time to escape? https://t.co/OP4seHWU7A

An interesting @ElixirLang library Mayel shared is Flexto, which is an Ecto library for injecting a schema’s definition from application config! Sounds handy for really extensible projects! #MyElixirStatus https://t.co/89U52NonBU

Episode 136: The fediverse is a hot topic! Mayel de Boniol explains what it means, what ActivitPub is and more! Mayel also created Bonfire Networks with @ElixirLang and @ElixirPhoenix as a framework to create federated servers! Lots to unpack! #ElixirLang https://t.co/bDi2nSdqxg

[Alembic @teamalembic]

At the last @elixirsydney meetup, @mayel2b gave a great talk about building an Open Source toolkit for federated apps, including social networking and coordination tools, called @SwitchToBonfire. Go check it out! https://t.co/9FXjyVAN3j

@magpiekilljoy Yes, and also that it doesn't have to be a disaster, especially if alternatives have already been building and preparing. Speaking of which, are you on the fediverse yet?

[Alembic @teamalembic]

Join us for an evening of talks, food and drinks and enjoy hanging out in person with other community members. Meetup will start at 6 PM AEST and stream online for those who wish to attend virtually.

@SwitchToBonfire Please boost, @ElixirSydney

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

I'm giving a short intro about @SwitchToBonfire for a technical audience (Elixir Australia meet-up) in a couple days. What would be some things you'd like to see covered? #MyElixirStatus #ActivityPub

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@SukinoVerse @veervrrr @josevalim Check out @SwitchToBonfire for a fediverse framework using LiveView/Surface

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@bernheisel We forked it a while back to build the ActivityPub library used in @SwitchToBonfire but I guess that's a stretch

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@mcrumm This looks great! I've been wondering if something like this would be possible to run tests that overlap two sets of endpoints and repos?... It's for tests of pub/sub API but currently they run with sandbox disabled unfortunately.

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@dino_coder @JamiGibbs Yeah we need that as well, have a custom implementation for now, but seems the author is planning to add multiselect 🤞

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@dino_coder @JamiGibbs Have you looked at https://t.co/CQXloIJBBa

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@RichDecibels I guess it means withdrawing from Twitter these days.

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@bcardarella Yeah it's early days but moving fast. And shows how multiple different pieces of software are being stringed together to create more than any one of them are built for.

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@bcardarella An example https://t.co/NiVeMNyMEG

[Mayel de Borniol @mayel2b]

@bcardarella It's coming...

@louispilfold We're building a federated one (in Elixir), but if you won't self-host or find someone you trust to do it for you that only leaves p2p (in which case I recommend Scuttlebutt)

@asas12asas1 @josevalim Same for me (in 3 different browsers)
