    @liaizon@social.wake.st I'm testing my split domain setup but it can't seem to resolve your webfinger properly. BrowserPub suggests it's a content-type issue in your webfinger <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://activitypub.space/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f603.png?v=faddfb1abda" title="😃" />

              @liaizon@social.wake.st yeah it does, just seems to be due to stricter checks on my end. I don't know if that's the right content type though.

                  @liaizon@wake.st okay, I added some code to handle your specific use case.

                  You're also @liaizon@wake.st now, so split domain support now works on NodeBB <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://activitypub.space/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f603.png?v=e12c3bce301" title="😃" />

                    @julian wowowowow thank you. It will also help a handfull of other people who still have their single user mastodon instances set up like this. It used to be in the mastodon docs ages ago
