I have a static blog. Think something like a site generated with a static site generator (like Jekyll, Hugo, Eleventy, etc)

I’ve been thinking about making a separate backend for the blog with ActivityPub functionality to boost its discoverability.

Is there any tool that can assist me with this? I wanted to make sure before I embark on building something from scratch.

P. S. I am aware of WriteFreely, but I would prefer if the blog site remains a static site and decoupled from the ActivityPub stuff.

    Not to take away from brid.gy and other more high tech solutions, which I should look into and maybe switch to, but I have a Jekyll site (kind of a mix between a one-person wiki and a blog), and what I do is that I just post excerpts from my posts and add a link to the post. I think this is great because Fedi posts aren’t editable but Jekyll posts are, and my writing is typo-ridden and sloppy so I really appreciate being able to fix things.

    It still sucks when I make a typo in the excerpt.
