UO has a super robust eco system of private shards and server software. It’s kind of amazing. Pretty active development on things like ServUO or ModernUO servers. The client has been fully rewritten and actively developed with improvements on ClassicUO. All of these are open source as well.

For servers you have places that function entirely as different eras of UO like the Renaissance shard, or even entirely new content like what’s in Outlands.

There’s honestly a lot to be found out there and it’s really neat.

Basically, people on other activitypub services like Mastodon can follow your posts on WordPress and they’ll see them in their feed like any other content. You can install another plugin to follow others on the Fediverse from within your WordPress site as well, but I haven’t felt the need for that yet personally.

Been using this plugin for a while now, and it honestly makes it super simple to get your blog on the fediverse. Really cool, and I recommend it if your site is on WordPress. You basically have to do a tiny bit of set up, then you can pretty much forget them plugin is even there, it just works.

I have the same firstname@lastna.me setup as well. It’s honestly pretty nice.
