Goals
|
|
|
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A minimal ActivityPub server, comparable to an email MTA.
|
|
|
|
|
* Server-to-server and client-to-server protocols supported.
|
|
|
|
|
* Opt-in federation. Federate with a well-defined list of instances.
|
|
|
|
|
* Resistant to flooding, hellthreads, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
* Support content warnings, reporting and blocking.
|
|
|
|
|
* http signatures and basic auth.
|
|
|
|
|
* Compatible with http (onion addresses), https and dat.
|
|
|
|
|
* Minimal dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
* Data minimization principle. Configurable post expiry time.
|
|
|
|
|
* Commandline interface. If there's a GUI it should be a separate project.
|
|
|
|
|
* Designed for intermittent connectivity. Assume network disruptions.
|
|
|
|
|
* Suitable for single board computers.
