Activity Pub

This post is a test post.

Testing ActivityPub. Does editing here change the post when viewed elsewhere?

Yes it does, the answer is yes when the post is on this server, but it seems other servers may show an older copy of this post.

Well, this seems to be working. Good.

If you’re wondering what on earth I’m on about, I’m setting up this blog with Activity Pub, so it can be followed within the Fediverse.

If you have heard of the Fediverse, and are reading this blog on something like the Mastodon social media… Yay! You can see it! That’s great, it works! And also I’m really excited that replies via other clients seem to show up as comments on this blog.

If you have never heard of the Fediverse, well that’s ok. Please read this article that Douglas Adams wrote about the internet in 1999, to emotionally prepare you for new things. https://douglasadams.com/dna/19990901-00-a.html Then, read about what the Fediverse is on Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse
