Would it be possible for me to make comments to other instances etc?

Solved: I can't, it would only work with a public domain.

Plain HTTP should be considered obsolete. Also it makes impersonating websites harder (but not impossible)

    Additionally, HTTPS if very easy to set up nowadays and the certificates are free^1^.

    ^1^: Assuming you have a public domain name, but for ActivityPub that's already a requirement due to the push nature of the protocol.
