This is very intriguing.... I actually work in CBC (nowhere near content or with the social media people who'd make these kinds of decisions), but as a developer I get 20% time to dabble with anything I think might be useful. I haven't used it in a while, but a CBC ActivityPub instance may be just the right project, especially if it can auto-publish our content from the same feeds that power our site.
Evan Prodromou (@[email protected]) , one of the co-authors of ActivityPub is super interest in getting Canadian news organisations on board the fediverse. He gave a talk about that last night actually: https://cosocial.ca/@evan/110809723914430376
If you're serious about this, you could totally reach out to him, I'm sure he would love to hear from people in CBC
@wisdomchicken @Hazzard absolutely! Hazzard, I'd love to discuss!
gods tagging someone's masto directly from lemmy, and them being able to directly respond via masto is just so fucking nice
@wisdomchicken it's funny that it seems like magic, since we're all on the same Internet. We've been conditioned to have such low expectations!
This has just opened my eyes. I get it now.
This whole thing makes sense.
Thank you.
Welcome to the club! I did an audible 'oooooh' the first time ActivityPub really clicked with me lol.
