Another day, another "bring back Google Reader" article that does not acknowledge Reader's extremely robust social features.

Managed to export my Mastodon posts to my website, in order to keep my content under my control (#indieweb). All that was needed was a short #Haskell script. For details see https://nest.jakl.one/posts/2020-04-30-exporting-mastodon-posts/

I can post both to Mastodon and Twitter from my blog via brid.gy! I'm still not sure how to turn my website into an ActivityPub endpoint but otherwise I'm really pleased with #indieweb!
