Using #Madblog as the easiest way to spin up an Indieweb/ActivityPub-compatible blog.
Zero db, zero JS, entirely hosted on text files.
You must log in or register to comment.
Does it work only for a single user? Is there a free instance I could create blog on?
At the current state it’s only single-user, but I’m working on a multi-user implementation. It should be available as soon as I have a proper implementation for the ActivityPub Group actor (similar to what WriteFreely already does, where you have a Group
@blogactor that aggregates post from multiple Person actors). That would also unlock full compatibility with Lemmy/NodeBB and other threadiverse implementations. But it takes a while to get done right - and a multi-user set up is also a design challenge when your selling point is to have a blog running on a single folder with Markdown files.About a free instance, it’s not currently available (you’ll need your own domain and host and then you can just spin up a Docker container), but AFAIK YunoHost is considering adding it to their offering.
Looks similar to Plume, the “no DB required” is neat though!
it works so well that it federated into this community twice! /s
Nice project. Your blog looks good as well. I’m impressed by how simple it all is to set up.
Ww this fills a niche that I had but hadn’t been able to think through yet. Amazing!
Neat, this looks really great! I am already enjoying a similar function for my blog via the Digital Gardens plugin in Obsidian the markdown note taking app. Makes it super easy to make a blog out of your preexisting notes, but even with that I still have a hard time blogging often.
👑 looks great ! Do you have any example blogposts showing the diagram and latex equation feature? I haven’t seen anywhere else in the fediverse do this
There’s an example with LaTeX here https://blog.platypush.tech/article/Build-an-open-source-drone-with-a-Raspberry-Pi-and-Platypush

Looks pretty cool!
So, mentioning you like this shows up in the guestbook? @fabio@manganiello.blog
It doesn’t fully work with Lemmy yet, but it should work from a Mastodon/Pleroma account.
Full federation with Lemmy is still an open point because it requires me to properly implement a Group actor for full threadiverse compatibility. From what I’ve seen so far even Akkoma hasn’t implemented it properly.
I’ll test it just in case by giving @fabio@manganiello.blog a shout
–EDIT–
Interesting, this actually looks like a bug in my implementation. It’s not about Lemmy or Mastodon (at least in the case of receiving loose mentions), it’s about the REPLY type that was ignored. Should be fixed now 🙂
Looks like @fabio@manganiello.blog made a cool thing here!
It worked! Very cool
