federation with Mastodon (and possibly other fediverse services) is now working!

see this lemmy-ansible github issue for the fix; basically, our web server now knows how to handle activitypub traffic in a more conforming way

to interact with us from mastodon:

• find the community you want to subscribe to here. note its real name – that’s the name in the sidebar after the !
• search for @communityname@awful.systems in mastodon
• follow that user and enjoy our posts over there! replying and boosting should work ok, no guarantees for anything else

as for interacting with mastodon from here, I think you can paste mastodon URLs into our search and it’ll maybe work? someone try that
