I'm looking into microblog.pub ( @microblogpub ) again. It just seems so close to where I want to end up. I want my website to also be my front-end to the #fediverse. Microblog.pub basically is that, but there's no real way to add static pages just yet.
I've been playing around with customizing templates and CSS to get the site looking similar to my current home page, and it's working well so far.

However, I mostly interface to it via the #fedilab app (fedilab.app, @[email protected]), which saves my positions in feeds and, crucially, allows me to seamlessly follow external instances, such as the lovely people at pkm.social
I wish I could do this in #friendica itself, too.

#ActivityPub is great and all, but it really needs a means of #NomadicIdentity so I can actually join a server like pkm.social (for both reading and posting) while still maintaining my own identity on my own server. I feel like that's the missing piece of the puzzle.

Another thing I'm liking about #friendica the "saved folders" which basically act as private tags I can add to any post on my server (and #fedilab allows me to add posts from remote servers for actions like starring), and I can bring up the posts with those tags whenever I want.
It's like the bookmark feature on #mastodon, but supercharged.

in reply to Gordon Pedersen • •On the other hand, I'm liking the capabilities of #friendica and I'm wondering if I can just build a front-end along the same lines as #microblogpub, but using friendica APIs as a back end 🤔
I might also look into Friendica themes and build a custom website out of that?
I don't know. Too many options.
