You Can't Follow Me
I empathize with the author and found the post to be a interesting and concrete example of what it's _actually like_ to try to publish a blog to Mastodon, which is something that I have thought about and read about in abstract. So, thank you sir for writing this up.
One thing to consider would be to try to use Caddy [0], or a tool like localias [1], as a local https proxy. You might be able to run both the mastodon server and your blog software on the same computer and refer to local-only urls like "https://blog.test" and "https://mastodon.test" and have everything work.
I'd be curious to know why the author didn't try this, they seem to be quite knowledgeable of other web technologies so I have to assume there's a problem that I'm not seeing here.

Show HN: Local development with .local domains and HTTPS
Sure, but there are also excellent FOSS solutions for this, such as https://github.com/peterldowns/localias which has the benefit of being cross-platform.

Free and open source software projects are in transition
Pretty good overview from Baldur — I don't always agree with everything he writes but this seems relatively correct.
One question I'd ask him (and anyone else reading) is: what are some other options for monetization?
Over the last few weeks I had three different VCs reach out to me about some of the open source projects I've been releasing, and ask me if I'd thought about making a business out of them. I told them that no, based on the problem the software was solving, I didn't see how I could adopt open-core or companion-saas business models, and I wasn't sure how else it could be done while keeping the code open source.
Can anyone suggest a viable business model that would allow:
* Code remains at least source available, ideally open source for non-commercial use.
* I can charge for commercial use.
* Actually doing the licensing is reasonable, ie no spyware or phoning home from the tool.
Wouldn't need to be perfect, I understand that if the code is open source a company could easily fork and use it without paying me. The idea would be to make it zero-headache to pay me for a license if the code is being used by a funded team.
The projects:

How I use Devbox in my Elm projects
These projects use Caddy as my local development server, Dart Sass for converting my Sass files to CSS, elm, elm-format, elm-optimize-level-2, elm-review, elm-test (only in Calculator), ShellCheck to find bugs in my shell scripts, and Terser to mangle and compress JavaScript code.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
No, look at the associated unit test: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/c6eb186064091c79f4...
If that test fails we could serve PHP source code instead of having it be evaluated, a major security flaw.

How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:

HTTP/2 Continuation Flood: Technical Details
I think that recompiling with upgraded Go will not solve the issue. It seems Caddy imports `golang.org/x/net/http2` and pins it to v0.22.0 which is vulnerable: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/6219#issuecommen....

Show HN: Nano-web, a low latency one binary webserver designed for serving SPAs
Caddy [1] is a single binary. It is not minimal, but the size difference is barely noticeable.
serve also comes to mind. If you have node installed, `npx serve .` does exactly that.
There are a few go projects that fit your description, none of them very popular, probably because they end up being a 20-line wrapper around http frameworks just like this one.

I Deployed My Own Cute Lil’ Private Internet (a.k.a. VPC)
Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).

Automatic SSL Solution for SaaS/MicroSaaS Applications with Caddy, Node.js and Docker
So I dug a little deeper and came across this gem: Caddy. Caddy is this fantastic, extensible, cross-platform, open-source web server that's written in Go. The best part? It comes with automatic HTTPS. It basically condenses all the work our scripts and manual maintenance were doing into just 4-5 lines of config. So, stick around and I'll walk you through how to set up an automatic SSL solution with Caddy, Docker and a Node.js server.

Bluesky announces data federation for self hosters
Even if it may be simple, it doesn't handle edge cases such as https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/1632
I personally would make the trade off of taking on more complexity so that I can have extra compatibility.

Freenginx.org
One of the most heavily used Russian software projects on the internet https://www.nginx.com/blog/do-svidaniya-igor-thank-you-for-n... but it's only marginally more modern than Apache httpd.
In light of recently announced nginx memory-safety vulnerabilities I'd suggest migrating to Caddy https://caddyserver.com/
