Talk:Pump.io

At the time of this comment, the article for ActivityPub redirects to the Pump.io page. Can a moderator undo that so a separate ActivityPub page can be developed? ActivityPub needs separate coverage. Algotruneman (talk) 17:09, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

This article should exist. quitter.se/daw (talk) 16:32, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

limitations, issues
the limitations, issues section should include problems which arose since introduction of pumpio, e.g.:
 * since 8 months knowledge is destroyed/not available: only data from "active" users was migrated into the identi.ca DB. Now users have to hope they can find old info via Archive.org or so. ("All accounts will be backed up and made available for download" 2013 Jan 9)
 * people leaving for big silos like twitter: due to lack of features or the usability of pumpio, Erkan Yilmaz 11:40, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

MediaGoblin
The article currently states that MediaGoblin is implementing pump.io, based on a link that is long out of date. Sites running pump.io will be implementing ActivityPub, in place of the roll-your-own protocol it has used, and if MediaGoblin implements a federation protocol, it will be ActivityPub, not the pump.io one. I am removing this claim from the article. --Danylstrype (talk) 16:03, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

pump.io is a software project, not a protocol/ standard
This article, as currently written, is a confusing mishmash of material about the pump.io server software run by Identi.ca and a network of other websites, and material vaguely handwaving at the federation protocols used to share messages between these sites. The developers of the pump.io software have been heavily involved in the development of the ActivityPub standard, and pump.io will be implementing that standard. This article needs to be rewritten to describe the pump.io software, and its adoption of ActivityPub, and perhaps be renamed to "pump.io (software)". --Danylstrype (talk) 17:55, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
