One of the things that has been frustrating sometimes is that I want to make a longer post on #mastodon, but run into the character limits. I appreciate the character limits, I really do, but there are times when I want to be a little more verbose.

I’ve looked at possibly running something like writefreely, or one of the other #ActivityPub first platforms. But then I remembered that wordpress had a plugin. And the most recent iteration of my website is running on wordpress, although, up until today it was running on a host in my house and a static export of that was being uploaded to the server.

One of the other things that I wanted to have was the ability to work on blog posts in an efficient way using #emacs. So now I have org2blog plugged into my emacs configuration.

As this is my first post using this conglomeration of tools and tech, we’ll see if it works, or if I have a succession of “did it work this time?” posts…
