Hey @buercher, wouldn’t it be great if we could opt in to #tootfinder by following an account? That would be way easier and less error prone. What do you think?

It only needs bare minimum ActivityPub support for follow/unfollow. Wordpress and other similar things support that.

I feel like there must be other minimal ActivityPub code out there. @davew may be able to help?

The only bad part now is their free-tier no longer exists, and something like that would use a lot of resources.

How does something like this work when the users use an #instance with character limits? Will your blog posts still be shared to other instances?

Oh, so it is limited on the sender's side, not on the receiver side. Interesting, thanks!
