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.

I’m on Bluesky and my view of it, at least, is absolutely nothing like Twitter. I’m glad he quit it before he could really turn it into another Nazi-infested hellhole.

It was pretty obvious from looking at /r/all that upvotes and comments are way down. Posts from somewhat obscure subreddits are making it to the front page, something you never saw before. People may be reading, but they’re not participating as much as before.
