Webfinger needs to be updated or replaced anyhow - it wasn’t specified in a static file hosting compatible way and expects a dynamic response or custom server rules. Not that bluesky helps here either.



It's easy to do. Here are some examples: https://www.packetizer.com/ws/webfinger/server.html

I actually serve up content using both static files and via dynamically generated content, depending on the domain and needs.


Those are steps for running a server with rules engine. I don’t want a server, I want users to be able to access a CDN directly which may not have such flexible rewrite rules. I’m building a kind of bluesky alt that works entirely statically and should be flexible to file hosting
