Is it much easier for non-static sites? Is there a "webmentions in a box" WP plugin?

Yep! https://wordpress.org/plugins/webmention/

It's completely self-contained, no external services, and integrates with the native WordPress comments system.

I was *just* about to come back around and thank you and Remy for building these servies for starters. So thank you!

Yes, this is a partial failure of static sites but it still just feels like an over-engineered solution. I know lots of bloggers and so few of them use webmention

There's definitely room for someone to come in and build a better solution tailored to all the specific limitations of static sites! What you're seeing is the side effect of these solutions not having been built specifically with static sites in mind.

- Set up IFTTT for RSS -> http://webmention.app to send webmentions

Fin? Maybe? I count 4 different web-apps necessary *and* two different code markups needed to get this all working correctly.

Webmentions is a failed system.

Not sure I understand why this is "failed"?

I'm guessing you are using a static site generator. That's going to give you lots of problems trying to do anything dynamic, kind of by definition.

So if my laptop starts rendering files in an acceptable way and I don't need to buy a new one...

That means maybe a new camera is still on the table for the channel funds that still need spent this year.

I'm just saying 🤷‍♂️

"funds that needs spent" 😂 I know that tune. That sounds like someone who has a well-paying full-time job doing something other than making YouTube videos.

I seem to have found myself in #Memphis at sunset. Was a nice surprise being able to walk around with all the streets blocked off tonight. #BealeStreet

hey @aaronpk, thanks again for the great talk at #bsidespdx! Any chance you'll be sharing the slide deck? I wanted to review them again and there were some links in there I wanted to follow up on :)

Yes! They're posting the video soon and when they do I'll post a link to it and the slides!

Happy Halloween Eve! It’s time for another year of my all-time favourite festivity, Tokyo’s mundane Halloween costume party, where folks dress up as an utterly normal and boring thing

Here are my favourite costumes from the 2019 event this past weekend

Alan Jacobs is right that any revitalized indieweb blogosphere depends not just upon writers of blogs but readers, who “have all been trained by social media to skim the most recent things and then go on to something else”. https://blog.ayjay.org/on-blogging/
