Welp, you'll just have to settle for reading the [AP spec](https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/), writing some homemade JSON, and figuring out how `python client.py` works. That's rough, buddy. You'll have to learn how to manually write `Note`s, manually accept follow requests, and more! You can find some examples in this repo.
