It’s insane to me that .org powers are unilaterally being used for .com problems. This is a line I never thought I’d see get crossed so brazenly.

Maybe I should do that PHPNomad Laravel integration sooner than I thought. This is getting bad.

With some clever filters in my server, I can now use the WordPress app to reply to posts. It’s a little awkward since I have to copy the link, but still…a step in the right direction.

Okay. Caching problems fixed. Unclear if the blog post formatting issue is fixed though. Hoping that excerpts will show with a link to the post when it’s not a micro post 🤞

Federating My Website
This post explores how I’ve added enhancements to my site to better-integrate with the Fediverse, and also how I’m using the Mastodon app to publish content direct to my WP site (!)

Holy shit. There’s a plugin that allows you to publish on your blog using Mastodon apps. You can now publish content on your WordPress site directly through the mastodon app. This is HUGE for mobile experience.

So blog is directly on the fediverse now! Moving forward this should auto-boost to my existing profile on Mastodon so I can still share with my followers there, but I no longer need to manually cross post. Still have to manually share on X, but one step at a time.
once @pfefferle makes progress on the migration from Mastodon, maybe I can completely switch off that account. Getting closer!
PS: I’m Using the booster plugin – going to share a PR soon to help with the stumbling points I had in using the plugin.

So I have some questions about the state of the fediverse on WordPress.
Is it possible to migrate my Mastodon’s followers/following to my WordPress site (assuming I’m using it as an ActivityPub source)
Is it possible to actually follow people and get some kind of feed, interacting with that account with other users?
I think the answer is still solidly “no” to both of those, but it would be good to get some context on how people are dealing with this today.

Today is mostly about budgeting and finance. I pay myself on the 10th and 25th, and lean into Profit First ideology.
If I have time, I’ll probably get moving on a project I won earlier this month. I have a few retainers I kinda need to organize.
Oh, and Siren 🥰
