Hey @mczachurski 👋
I am working on the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress and tried to follow my blog from a vernissage account today, without any luck. Can you maybe support me, by telling me what I might do wrong?
Here are two example blogs:

Thanks in advance!
I think I found the issue, and tried to fix it.

I’ll test it locally and, if everything works, I’ll merge it later today.
Thanks a lot!

Abgelöst aus dem Dienst, weil mir ein LKW meinen Spiegel abgefahren hat (zum Glück nur diesen) und danach abgehauen ist.
Ich hab mich so erschrocken, und gerade mit der Wetterlage aktuell traue ich mich nicht mehr auf die Straße, weil ich so schnell den Kopf nicht frei bekommen habe.
Zum Glück hatte ich einen Kollegen im Wagen, der Zeuge war. Und zum Glück gibt's da auch keine Diskussion in der Firma. 🙏🏻 Ich bin dankbar.

That already little value the Iranian Rial had before the latest protest has all but evaporated to zero.
This means that the regime can only pay using foreign currency. For important people they probably did this already, but if you are compelled to pay everyone like that, then the result is that most won’t be paid at all. Meaning, more people will protest.

Across Ukraine, russian Shahed drones are dropping PTM-3 anti-tank mines.
In some cases, this means deliberate mining of certain areas. More often, mines are released near the drone’s impact site — calculated so that emergency services or police responding to the crash will drive straight into them.
This tactic is not new. What has changed is winter. Deep snow now hides the mines, making them nearly impossible to detect and turning rescue work itself into a deadly trap.
