Talk:OStatus

= Implementations =

Friendica, Robin, StatusNet, MiniMe, Buddycloud, Wordpress (Plugin)... Diaspora is going to get OStatus support in the future. --91.97.211.210 (talk) 01:35, 28 May 2012 (UTC)


 * One of the current devs described Diaspora's eventual use of OStatus as "somewhat bespoke schema and methods of implementation" and therefore not automatically compatible with other OStatus apps: . If we can find a secondary source for this, it can be mentioned on the page.  Danylstrype (talk) 12:16, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

= Sorting live apps from dead ones =

The list under the 'Support' section is currently a mix of apps which are still under active development and others that appear to be dormant or dead. Results of a web search are listed below, and I'm going to alter the current page accordingly. Danylstrype (talk) 12:16, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Active
Projects which are still in active development and still support OStatus.


 * GNU social (formerly StatusNet), Friendica , Mastodon

Not sure
Projects which may or may not be active, and may or may not still support OStatus.


 * MiniMe - referred to in an earlier version of the page. I can't find any reference to a website or software package called MiniMe, except for its use by PCLinuxOS, and I can't find any reference to that supporting OStatus. Citation please. Currently removed from the page.
 * Project Danube - projectdanube.org now points to danubetech.com. There are recent commits to a number of GITHub repos owned by "Danube Tech", some of which relate to projects mentioned on the new homepage. No mention of OStatus anywhere here.

Not active

 * buddycloud: no code commits on anything other than the website since March 2016, last blog entry June 2015.
 * Duuit: URL still live but most recent content is a file uploaded in Feb 2017, otherwise nothing since Nov 2016 , and the blogs are riddled with linkspam
 * Lorea: Elgg fork. URL has a 'last code' button linking to GITHub, no new commits since Aug 2016
 * OpenMicroBlogger: dead URL went 403 between Oct and Dec 2014
 * rstat.us: dead URL, no commits at GITHub since Jan 2015, no GITHub activity by developers since June 2016
 * SocialRiver: refers site visitors to Identi.ca and Twitter

= Secondary sources =

When I started working on it this page has pretty much no secondary sources. I've added in a few (does the Free Software Directory count as secondary source?), but some of them are tech blogs and may not meet Wikipedia's criteria for credible sources. There are still quite a few primary sources too, which is far from ideal. I did a quick web search for sources that might be useful for further developing this page and found these, ,.
