Can Mastodon actually subscribe to a static ActivityPub feed?

A lot of blogs are statically generated (it's cheaper, faster and safer). Ideally, static websites could just generate JSON-LD for ActivityPub in a similar way as how they generate XML for RSS, which would make the transition easier... but last time I checked Mastodon didn't support that very well, so RSS was still a better fit in many situations since it does not require an active server component. I'd love to be shown otherwise.
