And while add it point to this via a top-level FEDERATION.md document as standardised by FEP-67ff. Also add a few missing descriptions to the config cheatsheet and move the recently removed C2S extension into an appropiate subsection.

|
||
|

## Supported FEPs
|
||
|
||
- [FEP-67ff: FEDERATION](https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/67ff/fep-67ff.md)
|
||

|
||
|
||
## ActivityPub
|
||
|
||
Akkoma mostly follows the server-to-server parts of the ActivityPub standard,
|
||
but implements quirks for Mastodon compatibility as well as Mastodon-specific
|
||
and custom extensions.
|
||
|
||
See our documentation and Mastodon’s federation information
|
||
linked further below for details on these quirks and extensions.
|
||
|
||
Akkoma does not perform JSON-LD processing.
|
||
|
||
### Required extensions
|
||
|
||
#### HTTP Signatures
|
||
All AP S2S POST requests to Akkoma instances MUST be signed.
|
||
Depending on instance configuration the same may be true for GET requests.
|
||
|
||
## Nodeinfo
|
||
|
||
Akkoma provides many additional entries in its nodeinfo response,
|
||
see the documentation linked below for details.
