[SOLVED] Does Blahaj Lemmy support ActivityPub? I'm trying to log in to PeerTube
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
Hii <3 ~
I have not worked with the whole ActivityPub thing yet, so I'd really like to know how the whole thing kinda works.
As far as i can tell, it allows you to use different parts of the fediverse by using just one account.
Does it also allow to create posts on other platforms, or just comments?
I have tried to log in with my smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone account, and it redirected me correctly to the blahaj lemmy site.
Then I entered my lemmy credentials and logged in. I got logged in to my lemmy correctly, but I also got an error just saying "Could not be accessed" in German.
And now I am still not logged in in PeerTube.
Sooo does blahaj zone support the ActivityPub, or is this incorrectly "kinda working" but not really?
No, ActivityPub doesn't share your login credentials with other websites, nor is it a single-sign-in service.
It's a content sharing protocol that lets websites syndicate content. AP will let you see content from PeerTube channels on blahja zone, as if it were originally posted there, if BZ is currently sharing content with the PeerTube site you're interested in.
AP is why you can see content from lemmy.world on BZ. It's why I can reply to you from lemmy.ca. But it won't let you sign in to a PeerTube website, or even other Lemmy-bases websites, any more than it will let you sign in to Facebook.
Ahaa I see.
So would it be possible to view peertube videos from within lemmy using AP?
When clicking into the commenting text box here, it looks like it offers me the ability to sign in with some fediverse accounts.
