This is still very raw and not looking great or anything, but I'm experimenting with using the #mastodon API built into #friendica to get my #ActivityPub posts and show them on my static #eleventy website.

https://death.id.au/posts/

Because it's static, this post won't appear on it, but it should next time I rebuild.
Eventually, I want to be able to log in and reply, see my feeds, and post directly from my website. Friendica is probably overkill as a back-end, but it's what I have right now.

ActivityPub Support for Static Sites

So, as my own personal portal to the #fediverse, I'm selfhosting a single-user #friendica (https://friendi.ca/) instance. I'm still learning, but I can easily connect to #mastodon peeps as well as following #RSS feeds (and I'm starting to reach out and explore "forums", like #lemmy instances.

However, I mostly interface to it via the #fedilab app (https://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 https://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 https://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.
