- I've been slowly learning more about the #IndieWeb it's really great and the more I read about it, the more excited I get (but also more confused, should I implement #RSS / #Atom / #Activitypub / #webmentions on my blog, all of the above or none?). Also I've discovered some great blogs and dusted off my feed reader.

- I had a new, fresh haircut.

- Yesterday was the first day of the year it was comfortable enough to read a book in the garden, and it was nice and sunny.

I finally figured out displaying webmentions on my site without any client-side JavaScript! I'm happy with the visual design for displaying them too

I plan to do more in-progress writeups of projects instead of waiting around until I'm sure something's "finished"

I have questions about #webmentions (bonus points for in the context of #eleventy).

Do you need to use webmention.io? I've seen several posts that reference it, is it reliable?

Also, is it possible to have webmentions on a per-post basis? To kind of use them as an alternative to comments or do they only work for the root domain?

Thanks!

@soatok Hm ... Comments are still a "Maybe, Maybe not" feature on our website.

We're thinking of doing it #webmentions style but with support for manual website input, e.g. you post a regular Fediverse/X/Blog post linking to one of our pages and submit that link to our page, and it then checks for link presence and comment text, and saves a copy of what it finds...

How's that interact with GDPR stuff, 'cuz we'd only be taking already-publicly-posted information...

To the #Eleventy community: does anyone know of any projects to make an 11ty website a first class member of the #fediverse, similar to what The Verge is doing (via WordPress it seems like) and 404 Media will do once Ghost is ready (ref digiday.com/media/why-publishe). I did implement #webmentions on Cybercultural.com, using Bridgy etc, but it was unsatisfactory so I took it offline. I do want Cybercultural to be an “actor” on the fediverse tho, so now thinking about how to achieve that via 11ty.

I did a write up of setting up Webmentions on my site! I had mentioned it earlier, but there was one stumbling block that took me longer to figure out.

Webmentions let me get notified when people share my posts, respond to my comments on other sites, etc., and lets me use my site for a lot of the kinds of interactions I'd otherwise have to do on social media.

OMFG!!! I can finally say I’ve got #webmentions working on my #11ty website!

I’ve tried loads of different tutorials but @chrisburnell’s article chrisburnell.com/article/webme and eleventy-cache-webmentions plugin chrisburnell.com/eleventy-cach finally got me over the line. Thanks Chris!

Now to ditch IFTTT and it’s shortened URLs and figure out POSSE auto-posting and write some ABSOLUTE BANGERS!!! // @henry

Chris Burnell · Webmention Setup for EleventyHere’s a quick run-through of how I retrieve and utilise Webmentions with my Eleventy website.

Hey @henry just saw your talk at #11tyConf, loving the energy! 🔥🔥🔥

Too bad you only had 11 minutes, I'm currently exploring #WebMentions and would've loved to hear about it more in-depth. Did you already blog about this, by any chance?

To everyone else, here's the talk I'm talking about: youtube.com/live/iLxJ6PtuF9M?s

What did you use for your slides? For a moment I thought #iaPresenter 🤔

Guten Morgen! 🙂
Ich lese gerade den wunderbaren und sehr empfehlenswerten Newsletter Own Your Web von @matthiasott in dem es dieses Mal um Webmentions geht und habe deshalb eine Frage an Euch:
Hat jemand von Euch #Webmentions auf der eigenen Website aktiviert und wie sind die Erfahrungen damit?
(Am hilfreichsten für mich wären Erfahrungen zu Wordpress - gerade auch in Kombination mit dem Activity Pub Plugin, aber auch an weiteren Erfahrungen bin ich interessiert)
