This is likely to work with a bridge rather than with code internal to pump.io.
Please support OStatus.
Or are there other ways how I can follow someone on pump.io when I am running GNU social?
Is OStatus still of relevance ?
@evanp what can we do to work on making this happen?
@akuckartz according to Wikipedia many free/open source social network software support OStatus. And what other protocol would you use to follow follow people/groups on other services?
@txt-file Which "other services" do you have in mind?
The W3C recently started the Social Interest Group and the Social Web Working Group. See http://www.w3.org/Social/ for further information and links.
If you are interested in becoming an active member of the Social IG you can apply to become an invited expert (if you are not working for a W3C member company).
You also might want to join the Federated Social Web Community Group: http://www.w3.org/community/fedsocweb/
@akuckartz e.g. I am using Gnu social and want to follow people/groups which are using pump.io.
+1 on supporting OStatus
+1. same as @txt-file
Would definitely love to see this :)
It would be brilliant if I could follow people on indenti.ca from mastodon.social - see https://github.com/Gargron/mastodon/issues/138
Heya! Here's the deal:
This is almost certainly never going to make it into pump.io core since as Evan pointed out above, it makes more sense as a separate bridge. Anyone who wants this feature badly enough is welcome to step up and volunteer to write such a bridge (and I'll be happy to help out whoever does however I'm able), however this won't be high priority for pump.io roadmap for a looooong while. I.e. if no one does this independently, it simply won't happen. I'm really hoping that someone steps up to do this, since it would be pretty sweet. (+1s here are, as usual, extremely unlikely to change the above.)
Thanks for your interest in pump.io :)

At this point in time, I'd suggest writing an OStatus-to-ActivityPub bridge, since it'd be more useful.
Does anyone here know how to follow a mastodon user from a pump.io instance?
@Serkan-devel it isn't possible... yet. That'll change when ActivityPub support lands.
Can pump.io speak to a gnusocial instance? https://pump2status.net/ Seems to have been caught by a domain grabber. Just like Openfarmgame
No, GNU Social uses OStatus
What does pump.io use then?
Wait, @evanp must have co-written the Activitypub spec https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
@Serkan-devel pump.io uses its own pump.io protocol. Sometimes people call it ActivityPump, but that has several meanings. The ActivityPub effort (the W3C Social Working Group) was started by Evan, and ActivityPub is based off pump.io, but with ActivityStreams updated to 2.0 and several more changes made during the standardization work, based on input from the WG members and their experience building other federated social networks.
How far off are ActivityPub and ActivityStreams 2.0?
See #1483
@Serkan-devel we are cranking on it right now. I'd expect it for the next version of pump.io, either 5.2.0 or 6.0.0 depending on whether deprecation is backwards-compatible.
Any news on support for ActivityPub in pump.io? 1) is it still the plan? 2) any idea when it might become a reality?
As one of the pioneers of federated social networking, we'd love to feature pump.io prominently on fediverse.party. But the criteria include being able to federate with at least one other federated packages. AFAIK pump.io sites currently only federate with each other, is this correct?
@strypey the correct issue for that question is: https://github.com/pump-io/pump.io/issues/1241
Thanks a lot @vxcamiloxv ! I'll update our internal wiki to follow that issue instead of this one. But can you (or anyone) confirm that pump.io sites currently only federate with each other, or if this is not correct, let me know what other packages pump.io can currently federate with?
@strypey currently only federate with each other, but probably @strugee has more information
We should support remote follow using OStatus.
