Wildebeest: A Cloudflare ActivityPub Server

From blog.cloudflare.com:

Today we’re introducing Wildebeest, an open-source, easy-to-deploy ActivityPub and Mastodon-compatible server built entirely on top of Cloudflare’s Supercloud. If you want to run your own spot in the Fediverse you can now do it entirely on Cloudflare.

I trust Cloudflare — at least more than other actors nowadays. It’s compatible with the fediverse and open-source, best of all worlds. So this is a great announcement for me. Unlike last year, I’m in no hurry to host my own Mastodon instance. But if I needed to, this would be a strong contender1.
