ActivityPub testing
Trying to troubleshoot our new ActivityPub addon, which supposedly posts WordPress to Mastodon, and Mastodon replies back to WordPress. The first part is working fine, Mastodon is receiving the postings, but I can’t seem to puzzle out how to get the responses. Functionally, I think it is my own misunderstanding – I expect the software…

Subscriber milestone, slowly growing
We hit another milestone for our YouTube presence (Halfing13) this morning, breaking into the 700-subscriber mark. For our channel, this is major, but for most of YouTube, it is just a small blip.

I have had a Patreon site configured for quite some time, but the level of support there is minimal to non-existent.

More tweaks
Continued to work on the website and mastodon server but managed some breakthroughs late last week. My challenge was self-hosting both sites, but from a single internal internet connection. This is much more challenging than it would appear, since there are two such services and only a single connection. The solution, after a bit of…
