Johannes Hentschel<p>Could I ask <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fediverse</span></a> for some <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/fedihelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fedihelp</span></a>? What is currently best technical solution for writing a <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/blog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blog</span></a> where each blog post is an <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> message that is fully displayed on Mastodon? Last time I tried the <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/wordpress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wordpress</span></a> <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/integration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>integration</span></a> <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/plugin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plugin</span></a>, only links to the blogposts were displayed on Mastodon.</p><p>The ideal solution would actually be some integration with <a href="https://hostux.social/tags/quarto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quarto</span></a> so I can flexibly integrate the blog in my page but other solutiona are just as welcome. Thank you in advance!</p>

Klaus<p>What Is The Fediverse?</p><p>If you’re not familiar with the name “<a href="https://twit.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a>” – that’s okay. It is is an open society of web services that is already serving millions of people all around the world. They do this through a common language called <a href="https://twit.social/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> that lets news and events flow from one site to the next. So, instead of checking in to 5 or 6 different corporate sites, you can find, follow, like, and share across many, many sources – all from your own, singluar Fediverse profile.</p>
