I have a personal website that is just a landing page made with Carrd. I’ve been interacting on the Fediverse (Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, BlueSky so far). I would like to consolidate my public Fediverse persona, write a little bit longer form blogging, and be able to have a central spot for my pictures and posts.
I’m looking at using write.as or micro.blog on a subdomain of my personal website. What are people’s experience with these two platforms and are there other good ones?
Has anyone found a good workflow for consolidating personas? I know you can use mastodon logins on Pixelfed. Is there a scenario where I just have one server login and tie everything to that?
Someday I’ll try self hosting but for now, I’ll pay for decent services.
I’ve tried all sorts of things and have settled on using Wordpress with a rss widget which publishes my rss feed from Mastodon (it picks up certain hashtags to avoid publishing everything - eg. #blog). It publishes pics and everything. It also works with Pixelfed (maybe not Bsky). There’s probably more elegant ways to do this - and ones involving activitypub - but this one works without much effort setting up.
Yeah. I’ve done WP before just wanted to try something new. Sounds like your setup isn’t too bad though.
The downside is that I’ve virtually stopped writing blog posts and rely on the “microposts”. Not sure if that’s why I started a blog.
