 OK, well @Terence Eden’s Blog exists in the fediverse.

It appears to have an outbox full of content.

But it isn't accepting any follow requests and I can't work out why.

Think might be a two-drink problem for later tonight. 
 @2fd7551e @Terence Eden’s Blog Hrm, I'm seeing a count of 2791 posts, but then it says 'No Posts Found' and won't show any with Ivory on a Mac.

 @b13e1947 those are all the previous blog posts. It hasn't yet federated any to your server. 
 @2fd7551e @Terence Eden’s Blog, I can see blog posts being posted from @4f42afc7 https://mastodon.social/@admin@shkspr.mobi/111057625487633004 
 @1070ffdc @Terence Eden’s Blog oh! Thanks - it appears to be working. I just need to get the follow requests going now 🙂 
 @2fd7551e, by the way, you can ask Mastodon to fetch older posts by running something like this:

for d in $(GET -o links https://shkspr.mobi/blog/ | grep 2023 | sed -e 's,/#.*,,g' -e 's,/$,,g' | sort | uniq | grep -v '[0-9]$' | grep -v wp-content | grep -v '\.js$' | cut -f2)
do
    curl -v -G -d q="$d" -H 'Cookie: ...' 'https://mastodon.social/api/v2/search?resolve=true&limit=1'
done 
 Is there an #ActivityPub conformance checker? All the ones I've found so far are dead.

I'm trying to track down why I can't follow @Terence Eden’s Blog 

I need to be able to inspect whether it is responding to API requests correctly or, if not, what error it is returning.
