I had no idea of the size and variety of the Fediverse! It has me feeling a bit overwhelmed. I’m enjoying BookWyrm very much; it’s the GoodReads/LibraryThing replacement I’ve been looking for for years.

I love the simplicity of Paper.wf for blogging. It’s truly elegant; I just click the link and start typing. But as far as I can tell there’s no way for others to find my blog or for me to find other blogs on the site. There’s no browse or follow feature. Nor can anyone comment on my posts! Those seem to me to be HUGE omissions.

Have you used any Fediverse blogging options? What are they like? And what other Fediverse services would you recommend? Other than Mastodon, I’ve already tried that (it didn’t excite me).

    So when you go to the page that’s offline, that’s because the Owncast software is up and running as a webserver. I’ve seen some folks that take the entire page down when they’re not streaming. Really only difference is if there’s a landing page there when you’re not streaming or not.

      I wonder if it would be possible to set up something that 307’s to a static page when I’m not live

        I honestly have no clue. I’m not a web person. I don’t like this stuff. I’m a backend nerd. :D Bunch of these Fediverse apps I can’t even get running. Just do what I can where I can. :-)
