When my blog was on Wordpress still, I was using the #activitypub plugin so that it was directly on Mastodon. After I left WP for #eleventy that was a hit I took. I looked for simple lightweight solutions I could use, hopefully something like a small PHP solution. At the time, there were none.

Today I see this:

https://github.com/dfaria-eu/Starling/

What I'm not exactly sure is if I drop this in the same directory as my #11ty blog will it automatically federate or can it be coerced to automatically federate? #BridgyFed works but is at best an imperfect kludge. I'd love to make ActivityPub a first class citizen of the blog. I guess I'll play around on a non-production system to see what it does.

@geniodiabolico I haven't looked at Starling in detail yet, but as I understand it it's intended as a standalone server. Connecting it to your existing blog, regardless of what it runs on, would most likely take some nontrivial programming work. 🫤
Btw @evan, this is my first tags.pub success story, it brought me the parent post ☝️ by someone I do not follow through the ActivityPub hashtag. 🙂
@julian I will see what it does. I'm prepared to do some programming if need be.
