Anybody have first-hand accounts of self-hosted #activitypub single-user #blog software? I'm quickly running out of options that aren't just write my own...

Aiming for a git-backed markdown-based static site generator with AP support.

Tried #writefreely and was mostly impressed but annoyed by the subscription-only additions (comments, media/images, etc.)

Tried #plume and was disappointed it was not suited for single-user and also put off by how premature it was.

Do not want to touch #wordpress with the AP plugin

WAT DO?!

@kubikpixel that would be ideal I think. My blog is already Hugo so being able to extend it to publish ActivityPub (as well as the existing RSS) would be useful.

I'll experiment with that next.

@stevelord Oh this looks very relevant! Not sure how I didn't find this earlier in my searches.

@bbrks I’m at the “write my own” stage. But I tend to wind up there a lot. Going to take a shot at building it on . I suspect I’m not alone in that.

@bbrks can be used in a single user mode where your profile is set as the home page and there are no registrations.

@bbrks I had a hard time migrating my blog away from bludit (als installed on my yunohost). There is a mastodon plugin on bludit.

@bbrks I've migrated one of my blogs from WordPress to a static site. Source is in GitHub in Markdown, Hugo runs in a GitHub action and then sftps to the static hosting site (that used to host the wordpress)

@kevin @bbrks

Not first-hand experience, but in a recent thread, @Graycot mentioned the "only addition to a static webpage needed to source ActivityPub comments" https://fosstodon.org/@Graycot/109277675638940314
