Sigh. Runaway disk usage on the machine I use to my host ActivityPub servers is coming to a head: despite my regular maintenance, each week there's another 1% of disk space I can't easily reclaim.
I was hoping to put this project off for a few more weeks 
If anybody has hot tips about reclaiming disk space that relates to Ubuntu, Mastodon, BookWyrm, or Pixelfed, I'm all ears!

āļø Hexo, WebFinger and better discoverability
Inspired by a post from @maartenballiauw, I've implemented his approach of providing a downloaded WebFinger file via my Hexo-powered, i.e. static, blog in order to achieve better discoverability via my own domain on #ActivityPub platforms like Mastodon. It works, but it has its drawbacks. The #Fediverse is simply not the #IndieWeb.

@jjude Hey, thanks for asking. #Emissary is a new server for individuals and small groups that combines #ActivityPub, #RSS, and #IndieWeb. The app is very flexible, so developers can reprogram most of its behavior, while still empowering non-techies to manage their own personal servers.
Most of the core is done, but ActivityPub support has been a big challenge. So, itās not ready for the real-world yet, but Iām excited about the progress.

Everyone's adding cool API-derived "currently playing" music indicators to their personal sites and I wanna play too! But I could really just do one that does a coin flip and chooses to display either the Mountain Goats or Adeem the Artist on each build and that'd probably be just as accurate tbh.
