 OK! My WordPress install seems to be picking up new followers 😃 

Now the wait to see if my next blog post travels to the tubes to all those servers.

 Well, my Mastodon instance picked up a post from @Terence Eden’s Blog 

So… it works? 
 @2fd7551e @Terence Eden’s Blog  ...a blog i can start following using Mastodon ? 
 @e2aff28e

Yup 😄 
 @2fd7551e Nice, how did you do that, with something clever on your blog/server i assume?

 @2fd7551e nice, thanks for sharing, maybe i should restart my Wordpress blog 😀 
 @2fd7551e is it this one? 🆕 blog! “Using Selenium & Chrome to automatically download Blob files” 
 @b0f85c33
That's the one 😀 
 @2fd7551e it appears as it’s posted from your username (mastodon.social) though and @Terence Eden’s Blog is empty of posts

Very strange. If you view it on the web version of your community, does it show anything? 
 @2fd7551e so from the web version here are the screen shots showing the same thing

Weird. If you scroll back through my posts, can you see my boost of the blog's post?
I'm wondering if your community doesn't support long posts or something similar. 
 @2fd7551e @b0f85c33 I too am seeing nothing on the blog account. I don't know that I've configured this instance in a particular way to block long posts.

@b0f85c33 
You're also both running 4.1.7 - wonder if that's that cause? 
 @2fd7551e works for me from mastodon.social. I saw you boost it. Love that the post link is just the blog post link- https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2023/09/using-selenium-chrome-to-automatically-download-blob-files/

Are you abandoning this account for the blog?

No, my blog is just for my blog posts.
