New here

Hi.

New on this hub, trying first steps, searching accounts on a Masto host to add, ends up with "protocol disabled".
A disabled AP protocol - really possible?
Tried with and without "@" before.
🤔

Greetings

You need to install/enable the Pubcrawl app for your channel.

Is the Activitypub protocol enabled on your channel? Check Apps -> Installed Apps.

Please check whether you have installed the ‘ActivityPub protocol’ app in your channel. Probably not. So please do it, then everything should work.

It's quite different to Masto - I understand 😉
Thanks.

With Mastodon the native protocol is ActivityPub, with Hubzilla the native protocol is Zot. In order to interact with all Fediverse services, the ActivityPub protocol must first be activated for Hubzilla. I admit: It should be easier to find - especially for beginners at Hubzilla... Perhaps as a switch when creating the channel (AP on/off).

An on-off switch would be awesome.

Hi.
What about diaspora?
No related app to find.
🤔

If you cannot find the Diaspora app, it is probably because the admin has not installed the Diaspora protocol as an add-on.

Huuupy... Your admin is me... 😂

Do you need Diaspora contacts?

Never mind... I'll just install it. Then you should be able to find the app under ‘available apps’. 😉

Done!

I hadn't installed it because I no longer need Diaspora contacts and there have been no other requests so far. Now it's installed and you can install and use the app.

As simple as it is - diaspora was my entry to the fediverse years ago.

@LasseGismo Yes, I also joined the Fediverse via Diaspora. That was in 2015. And I also had quite a few contacts. But over the years I found the contacts that were important to me in the AP Fediverse and so I gave up Diaspora at some point.
