For the test site we need to setup:

With the #indymedia as the publish hashtag for the test site.

At time of writing, RSS feeds can be generated per-tag from mastodon as follows, e.g.:

https://activism.openworlds.info/tag/some-tag.rss

Simply append .rss to a tag search URL.

Q. Can you turn a hashtag into an activertypub acter in mastodon? or a RSS feed? am assuming the API alows this.

For the indymedia reboot we need to subscibe to hashtag flows.

Q. So, do we want to "subscribe" to a #hashtag flow, or simply filter the posts of a trusted source that contain said #hashtag?

@bashrc: can epicyon "subscribe" to all posts from an AP instance (e.g. our activism mastodon instance), or only posts from specific actors from an instance?

Better to have shaped flows as this is what the #OMN is about - we might have to do a API request - am soure it is possable as everthing in mastodon is just atom/RSS feeds so got to tarnslate the correct one?

example you have to click the edit to see this:
https:///users/.atom

For people who are wonding why these fedivers sites?

its becouse the moderation of content flows are based on a radical decentrilation of trust - these sites have overlaping admins who talk to each other so are ready for the rollout. no resion outher sites cant join but would make testing more messy - one step at a time.

@mj-saunders This is a question which people also sometimes ask about Mastodon. No, you cannot subscribe to all posts from an instance. Yes this would be used to enable abuse.

Actors in the fediverse should be people. Sometimes they are bots or things scraped from Twitter, but primarily they should be real people.

@bashrc ok, good to know. Makes sense.

Regarding what @OMN has been asking - any ideas on the capacity/ability to "follow" a #hashtag?

As for PeerTube channel feed, can copy the Subscribe via RSS link.

It's available when viewing a channel's page, and clicking Subscribe drop-down.

It's also available at a higher level for all the channels of an account, on its' page, clicking Subscribe to all Channels drop-down.

Was thinking that perhaps the tags were present in the RSS feed for a channel, which could then be filtered, but unfortunately it's not the case.
