ActivityPub on Sn
I’ve spent the morning trying to get my ActivityPub implementation off the ground, and I fee like I’m making headway. You can currently follow my account at the blog (@owen@asymptomatic.net), and it seems to record that information for future publishing. The testing suggests that when I publish this post, it’ll push it out to anyone that is following that account, but given that the Mastodon instance that my personal account runs from and my iOS client report different things (Mona thinks that my follow request is “pending”, and I’m pretty sure I’ve set things up for there to be no review of follow requests), I’m wondering what exactly will happen.
Configuration of a system such as this is non-trivial and a bit inscrutable. I’ve tried to narrow options down to the bare minimum necessary, as combined with the other options that are needed for the blog itself, so that it doesn’t take a lot of config to get the system going.
