RE: mastodon.social/@HolosSocial/1Today the #HolosSocial project takes a step forward by letting one account run on several devices.It may sound minor, but each device runs its own #ActivityPub server, which made it a real challenge: avoiding duplicate actions sent to other instances and keeping everything in sync.All of this stays transparent for the user: adding a device is as simple as scanning a QR code, and the whole transfer is end to end encrypted between the two devices, so the relay never sees it in clear.

Building #HolosSocial is by far my most ambitious project. It might only attract a niche of users, though at first it could seem strange to run an #ActivityPub server on a device.But Holos' purpose is more than that: helping everyone have their own identity, host their media, and not depend on a server admin. Make everything accessible with views depending on your mood. One app, one identity, with all that the fediverse can offer.That's the beginning, the way is still long but not unreachable.

Most people know about messages, photos and videos on the #Fediverse. But the #ActivityPub protocol actually defines several object types, each one distinct and more or less compatible across apps:- Note: short post (Mastodon)- Article / Page: long text or shared link (WriteFreely, Lemmy)- Image (Pixelfed)- Video (PeerTube)- Audio (Funkwhale)- Event with date and place (Mobilizon)(1/4)#Fedilab #HolosSocial
