@chrisaldrich @sikkdays I must be missing something. Why wouldn't one just add webmention support to Mastodon?
That’s been proposed (see: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/search?q=webmention&type=Issues&utf8=%E2%9C%93) , but hasn’t gotten any uptake by Mastodon devs yet. But, as always, on the internet, the web will find a way. #

Reply to @sikkdays @seanl I’m happy to help too if you like.

@sikkdays @seanl I'm happy to help too if you like. There may be some inactive and even forked projects within the broader scope, but then there are lots which are flourishing. WordPress in particular is one of those since, it's what you mentioned: https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started_on_WordPress A good place to start is to jump into the IndieWeb chat (via web, IRC, Slack, etc.) https://indieweb.org/discuss For a quick overview, try here: altplatform.org/2017/07/28/an-introduction-to-the-indieweb/
Testing out to see if I can reply to Mastodon via my own website. This is going to be awesome if it works!!!
I’m not sure what’s changed recently but I went from a few spam comments on my website every week to hundreds a day.

Now that I have a larger and more diverse set of post types, it’s become more entertaining to read the incongruous spam posts about how brilliant and insightful I am when I’ve just posted a simple checkin.

I thought my writing style on this checkin was great myself, but I didn’t expect to gain this type of acclaim.

Spammers are going to have to start using microformats parsers to know which post types to properly add their spam to in the future.
