Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.
My goal is to figure out how I can bring https://gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz what is the platform behind the website? I can help with guidance.

@theraccoonbytes I would love any advice you have. The website is just a NextJS app that I've built. I'm starting to build a blogging platform around the map on the website.
I don't fully understand yet how I'd then get that on the fediverse. Do I fork an existing platform and build on that so that when you open one of these posts on my serve you can see all of the enhanced features, like mapping and gpx downloads?
I don't think I fully grasp how this is all wired up yet.

@spencexyz I created an article, well a series of posts, you may want to take a look.
It is one @blog but this is the direct link:
A guide to implement ActivityPub in a static site (or any website)
Hi! I have created this index for easy navigation. In Part 1, we will discuss why it is important to bring your site to the Fediverse. In Part 2, we will delve into an overview of the design of my implementation. In Part 3, we will make your blog discovereable in the fediverse. In Part 4, we will generate our notes and outbox, which contains posts ready to be shared in the Fediverse. Part 5, is an interlude to implement a subscribing to your site feature with fediverse accounts.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Have you found the #BikeTooter and #BikeNite folks yet? I think a lot of people are very tired of Meta right now.
Welcome here!

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Welcome! There’s a pretty huge #biking contingent here (not me, embarrassingly) — you should easily find your peeps!

#NewHere #introduction“Own their data” sounds interestingly nerdy - all the way down to the hardware on their bikes, or on a server they own ?cooperatively?, or what?
(Eta, oh, I see at least one hosting expert has already answered! Good stuff.)

@clew right now it refers to content you put online, like photos and posts you make about your long distance bicycle adventures.
long term, I'd love to see a federated version of Strava. every year they cut down their api access further and further. but it's our data and we should be able to share with any external apps we want.
I'm trying to figure out how I can use the tools I'm building to expose more cyclists to the fediverse and help fuel that demand.

@spencexyz @clew it seems, there is a federated thing to be the successor of komoot and strava allready in the making. Maybe you can/like/want to contribute to that project?

Welcome! Very interested in your project; a Strava-like federated app would be awesome! -

#NewHere #introductionHi Spencer, welcome
If you want an easy-to-understand guide to how this place works, have a look at the website https://fedi.tips (especially the section marked "Quick Start").
Please feel free to ask if you want help with anything specific, I am trying to provide unofficial tech support on here
