#webmentions — Public Fediverse posts

📝 Implementing webmentions #development #indieweb #activitypub #webdev #webmentions

I've been working on a number of connection points between my site and the broader web. Part of that effort has been webmentions (which are a fairly small spec). You advertise an endpoint and someone posts a source and target and, from there, you do with the information as you please.

You know what's cool about #webmentions? It let's me find my tribe. I monitor what webmentions I'm sending and receiving and I often discover blogs when they send me a webmention. Well, they're using webmentions so they're already in the cool kids club IMO so that gets them an automatic follow on RSS.

Please let me interact with your blog post!

Just some more opinions about blogging y'all!

Testons ActivityPub (les commentaires)

https://vincentbreton.fr/testons-activitypub-les-commentaires/

So, fun fact, if you

* Run #Wordpress

* Use the #ActivityPub plugin and your SITE gets federated

* Have your cache plugin refresh the cache with every page update <-- this is the setting to change

* And enable #webmentions

* And get someone with a wide range of followers boosting a post directly from the site to the fediverse (lol thanks @mwl )

You are going to spawn a LOT more php processes than you think you will and may run out of memory. Adjust your settings appropriately.

I have a page on my site about setting up webmentions (https://reillyspitzfaden.com/wiki/tutorials/webmention-tutorial/)

People have seemed to find it useful (I keep getting webmentions about people using it!) and I hope it can be useful for others too

What's new at Org Social?

- The Webmentions specification has been integrated. This means that when you link to an article or website, the author will be notified.
- The official website displays real-time statistics from the official Relay: https://org-social.org/
- The iOS app has incorporated many improvements, such as bug fixes and optimized asynchronous Timeline construction.
- Planet Emacslife, the most popular Emacs article aggregator, offers its own Org Social feed. Be sure to follow it!

And finally, I want to make a point. Currently, there isn't enough support to cover server costs, let alone Apple's subscription fee or development work. If you like Org Social and believe it provides value, please consider making a donation: https://liberapay.com/org-social

The Programmer’s Fulcrum 10 July, 2026

https://newsletter.mobileatom.net/the-programmers-fulcrum-10-july-2026/

After four days of work, it's finally time: my new homepage based on #PureBlog is about 90% ready. 🚀

Still need to import a few old posts, set up #Webmentions, and iron out some minor details, but I'm really happy with how it's turning out so far.

I *think* I've found a bug in the way #Lemmy sends certain #WebMentions.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Webmentions on my blog, Part 2: Outgoing

So I built my own webmentions feature. Here is an overview of how the robot and I developed it.

@michaelharley That's a very good point about making those distinctions; it is the next thing on my to-do list :-/

But at the moment I'm more bothered by the ones that just seem to ignore you altogether...

Webmentions on my blog, Part 1: Incoming

I built my own webmention receiver instead of relying on Webmention.io, using Node.js, Express, and a flat JSON file to avoid third-party dependencies and extra databases. Here's how it verifies incoming mentions, classifies them by type, stores them, and even polls Mastodon, Bluesky, Pixelfed, and Flickr for social reactions.

My site now supports webmentions

I finally got webmentions working on my site by setting up a homelab server with an Intel NUC to handle the build process, and now I'm collecting likes, replies, and mentions from Mastodon, Bluesky, and indie websites.

Dale Mellor extends an: Invitation to Join a Posse of Webmention Scratch-Builders to Work Towards Interoperability. https://khleedril.org/blog/2026-05-29--webmentions-posse.html #WebMentions

I'm wondering if I might find a bunch of people here who scratch-build their webmention implementations... would be great to send test messages around and find out what works and what needs work...

Please look me up at https://khleedril.org/blog/2026-05-29--webmentions-posse.html

I look forward to hearing from you.
