Publish to the Fediverse with Minimal Machinery

Fedibots is a clean-room PHP framework for write-only ActivityPub bots: each bot is a standalone server that followers can discover, follow, and receive posts from.

It deliberately keeps the stack small — no database, no Composer dependencies at runtime, no containers — while still handling HTTPS identity, HTTP signatures, cron posting, and delivery to followers’ inboxes.
