Using with the plugin and seems like it's not playing well with , as the author page that should return an ActivityPub author JSON for an author page, just being cached (not bothering about the "Accept" header).

Solved it by just exempting the `/author/.+` paths from caching, but it is not satisfying, the cache plugin should be able to handle these things.

Also, I have no clue whether it will make any difference for @gergely at all :P

And after poking around this area to see what the author page, plugin, the endpoint returns, a side-quest is now a deep-dive into an old-ish article from @Gargron to try start to piece things together

(while still it is just nerding out, not sure if it will have any specific effect)

Now further rabbit hole of looking at various instance's Instance endpoint docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/, e.g. this very instance's: fosstodon.org/api/v2/instance but also others like @grafana's
grafana.social/api/v2/instance and discovering Mastodon Glitch edition glitch-soc.github.io/docs/
and a reminder of how images are blurred here for loading using blurha.sh/ that looks pretty cool and would love to understand the process / see if it can be used well in code I maintain.
