Hmm, has anyone made an #activitypub compatible server for play-by-post RPGs? That way people can follow along if they want, people could run their own server if they wished, but mainly as an alternative to discord which is where so many modern pbp games are hosted.

@badtuple I've debated making something that does that, but haven't ever pulled the trigger on it. I don't know of any other projects in this regard, but projects like NodeBB (and the threadiverse more generally) have done interesting work that could be adapted.

It would be very cool to have something like that. Thus far the list of games on the fediverse is saddeningly short:

@hrefna@hachyderm.io years ago, I helped move a Star Trek PBeM to NodeBB. It didn't take off, but the concept is solid.
@badtuple@mastodon.social if you know of any PbP admins looking to migrate I'd be happy to help.

🆕 blog! “Some updates to ActivityBot”

@FinchHaven Thanks for chiming in. I appreciate it.

Good luck with it
Those were just my first, easiest thoughts
Dropped out of network troubleshooting a good long while ago...
