@agates @WClayFerguson @benjaminbellamy The follower is an Actor, and its type is determined by the "type" property. It can be a Person, an Application, a Group, an Organization or a Service. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary/#actor-types

(Mastodon doesn't recognize any other type for now)

So, just throwing ideas here: for podcasting, we could use a new "type" (say PodcastListener for example) or add a new boolean property to the Actor of type "Person" to determine that (probably best).

@WClayFerguson @agates @benjaminbellamy I think it can be done in parallel, on the one hand we could document how to interface podcasts the hacky way (though the only possible way for now) with the fediverse, and on the other hand we could explore interactions between podcast hosts and apps using the new extended specs.

Dear #fediverse and especially #foss and #activitypub tech enthusiasts amongst you ..

At #SocialHub we're preparing a great event in the form of two webinars and a workshop in April, for representatives of the European Commission.

The topics are #ActivityPub #Interoperability and #FediverseFutures within the EU.

Interest for the event came from EC itself, who via @NGIZero - funder of many great AP projects - approached SocialHub to organize.

You can help prepare and certainly join the Event!

@agates @benjaminbellamy @martin @dave @adam @bjoreman @theDanielJLewis @brianoflondon @jamescridland Hello all 👋 I went ahead and created a kind of explainer on how all of it would work on the new Podcastindex-org repo: https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/activitypub-spec-work/pull/1

Join the @NGIZero webinar next Monday at 10am Central European Summer Time! 🌞

@yassinedoghri and I will be there!

@lfdi Hi, Joost here from the (Dutch) NLnet foundation. Together w the ActivityPub-community and the open source funding program @NGIZero we're organizing webinars & a workshop introducing national/European administrations to #ActivityPub and the #fediverse (a.o. the EC's DG CNECT, DIGIT, EDPS).

It's still in alpha testing, but the latest version adds ActivityPub support so that people on Mastodon etc. can interact with Castopod posts.

He leído un par de minutos sobre @Castopod y ya me he enamorao.

@disruptionpr Le podcast comme réseau social avec ActivityPub en plus du RSS, un concept tout à fait disruptif de @Castopod @nitot tu devrais jeter un œil pour l'octet vert 👌
