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 🥰

I’m similar yet legally distinct from a WordPress developer. Hire me to fix your similar yet legally distinct from WordPress problems.

I know I shared this yesterday but it makes me so happy that videos can embed directly from shared links on my site now!

And on that note, I’ve muted several WordPress terms from my feed 😅.

Published a podcast episode today, and scheduled another one two weeks from now. I’ll be working on next week’s on Thursday, I think.
Also met with some people who I hope will be able to work with me soon!
Feels really good to start finally getting back to “normal” after becoming self-employed again.

Is now the time we have serious conversations about an earnest fork of WordPress and placing governance on the fork? Seems like a big push, but I worry we’re running out of options.

Omg. What words do I need to mute to cut back on the MM/WPE noise? This is getting out of hand. Can we use a hashtag? Perhaps #MattVsWpe or something?

Today is all about sales meetings and FINALLY getting ahead of the backlog of podcast content I’ve accumulated over the last several weeks. So glad to finally be able to get to this.
