Tap, tap, tap. Is this thing on?

I just installed the ActivityPub plugin and activated it. Theoretically that means this blog is now a Fediverse server. But nothing seems different. And I have no idea if it will publish to Mastodon.

So let’s see.

UPDATE ONE

I can find my blog username via my Mastodon account. And I can follow it. But no posts are showing.

UPDATE TWO

I turned comments to “on” (not clear on why this isn’t the default). Still nothing.
