2 months … I went from micro.blog to self hosted indiekit and having my own ActivityPub instance via Fedify Its quite a change that now everything I use in terms of UI/backend can be changed, fine-tuned, adapted at will.

Now I’m wondering, where does it end?

well…it ends when the plugins I forked and adapted to my needs are individually reviewed to make sure they abide to upstream coding practice, but also reviewed for code duplication, code security and overall coding best practices.

Some plugins are easy to handle, others like ActivityPub/Fedify implementation or Microsub are much larger code base that will require careful review.

And then there is the UI for ActivityPub and Microsub, in both cases I followed existing indiekit approach but I still had to make bold choices that I’m not 100% happy with.

And then there is the question of contributing back to upstream knowing all the plugins and sometimes improvements or bugfix I handled where assisted and made possible in such short timewm, by Claude Code.
