How do you like it? How do you find people to follow when running your own “instance”? How does it interact with lemmy? It is an intriguing option i think, i am interested in this.

I basically just use it to also post to the fediverse. It works. But I don’t follow anyone so I wouldn’t know anything about that side.

Same. My web host is already creaking under the strain of Wordpress, I’m not going to chance it by adding two-way federation to the rickety database.

Alright. I see you managed to post to lemmy with it and the comments show up on your blog, nice.

Make sure your hosting supports webfinger, otherwise activitypub probably won’t work. I’m on Siteground and they explicitly prevent it. Matthias Pfeferle, who wrote the ActivityPub plugin and now works for Automattic, actually asked them to enable it but they said no. Other hosts might do this as well.

Thanks for the heads up.
