#ActivityBot #ActivityPub #mastodon #phpI was temped to add versioning to #ActivityBot using:
```php
define( "VERSION", hash_file( "xxh32", __FILE__ ) );

#ActivityBot #ActivityPub #mastodon #phpWell this is exciting!
My little #ActivityBot server is through to the next round of the @nlnet grant application process.
Still a long way to go, but rather encouraging.

@kleisli I'll be publishing full details in my blog in the next couple of weeks. But basically funds my time, allows me to pay user research participants, accessibility audits, equipment, etc.
