Now that the #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin has matured to a greater degree, please find me on the Fediverse at @mikewmerritt@dymersion.com. I may post on this account occasionally if I cannot post a message otherwise or for testing purposes as I tinker with federation from the blog.
At some point, hopefully I'll be able to formally move the account.
To those who use the #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin and also are using the #PostKinds or #IndieBlocks plugins as a way to reply to toots: Or is it just me or has anyone noticed that recently (last week or so, maybe longer) #Mastodon isn’t threading the incoming reply?
It may just me. My integration seems to fail a lot in various ways, whether it’s my posts not being sent onward to inboxes or the Post Kinds URL metabox sometimes not saving URLs for replies or likes, but I’d like to see if there’s some larger issue going on.
Looks like I’ve finally outgrown shared hosting, thanks to having the #ActivityPub plugin installed on my #WordPress install. For anyone not on shared hosting, what size droplet (or equivalent concept in AWS, GCP, Azure, etc) are you using to support a WordPress install with ActivityPub / #Mastodon integration?
Alright, let’s try the new #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin threaded comments feature.
Looking at recent resource usage for this blog with #ActivityPub and #WPFriends enabled, and I think it’s time to migrate to a better solution. I’ve been wanting to learn more cloud, so this would give me an excuse.
Finally taking a look at #Lemmy. Looks very interesting the way they’ve integrated a topic-type structure into #ActivityPub.
@davidb@zirk.us I’ve noticed that since adding the #ActivityPub plugin my blog sometimes gets very slow. I think I need to upgrade to a better host.
@dansup Not sure I get this attitude. I keep seeing people saying this service or another should adopt #ActivityPub and federate but some people are opposed to the idea that some companies may do so? Is it not better that some do federate in order to develop the concept and technologies? Otherwise, what is the #Fediverse but its own walled garden, even if larger in nature? This would be like, in the early internet, being opposed that a company might offer ISP services to a larger audience and instead keeping it contained to the universities.
One of the reasons I'm really drawn toward the decentralized/federated open source networks is that there is so much innovation going on. It's not perfect and has a long way to go but it's very exciting and quickly developing.
For example, it is very cool that I can follow Jack Dorsey's #nostr account from the #Fediverse by way of a bridge to #activitypub:

I broke #WordPress #ActivityPub posting the other day, so seeing if it’s fixed now.
