Howdy! I'm the nerd who's building #Emissary - an ActivityPub server for building custom social applications on the Fediverse. My first app on this platform is a music sharing server for indie bands, called #Bandwagon. And now I'm also working on #Atlas, a social mapping server for adding Federated annotations to places in the real world. If you'd like to talk about any of my projects, feel free to DM me here, or on Signal (@benpate.5280) Emissary: https://emissary.dev Bandwagon.fm: https://bandwagon.fm Atlas: https://github.com/EmissarySocial/atlas GitHub: https://github.com/benpate
Oi #Fediverse.. Check out this 2min walkthrough of #Emissary's upcoming data migration tool. It's the last big feature I'm delivering in 2025. It uses the "LOLA" data portability spec to transfer account data from one server (like Bandwagon.fm) to a new one (like bandwagon.your-band-here.biz) No CSV files required. Just authenticate and approve, and everything just moves. There's tons more to do, but I'm confident this will be live by Christmas. 🤘🏻
