@freemo @fedipage Hey man ! Thanks for the reply ! I’m new to this ActivityPub protocol so I gave up pretty quickly on setting up a fedipage. But I think I’ll try once more if I find the time. Your project looks really promising.

Hey ActivityPub and self-hosting hobbyists, I have a question you guys may help me with.

The global idea, is that I am searching for a static site generator, with ActivityPub capabilities. And I'm looking for suggestions, or compromises.

I've been in the journey of making my own website and self-hosting. I started with WordPress, and it was fine, but I realize that may be too bloated for what I'm doing. I think my homelab could draw less power.

First, I wanna have a simple way to have an ActivityPub instance I can use for everything. I want to to mostly blogging, but also microblogging for mastodon, picture sharing à la PixelFed... The WordPress plugin is great for that, and might be my only option for now.

I also love the principles of SSGs, where I can just push some files to a repo to change the website, and everyone can get the source files of my website. I wish I could have a static site combined with ActivityPub. But what I figured, is that while a blogging website can be static, ActivityPub needs a server doing dynamic services.

I have seen some people having mastodon comments on their Zola blog, but I wish it was even more... "organic" than that. That is to say, a less hacky way.

There is also fedipage (@fedipage). It looked like what I needed, but I am very confused to what it is supposed to achieve. And I didn't find any documentation.
