How do you like it? How do you find people to follow when running your own "instance"? How does it interact with lemmy? It is an intriguing option i think, i am interested in this.

Make sure your hosting supports webfinger, otherwise activitypub probably won't work. I'm on Siteground and they explicitly prevent it. Matthias Pfeferle, who wrote the ActivityPub plugin and now works for Automattic, actually asked them to enable it but they said no. Other hosts might do this as well.

Thanks for the heads up.
