I have added webmentions to this 11ty build.
After looking for ways to add interactivity with my blog posts, I decided to add Webmentions to my site.
Have you heard of webmentions? They’re similar to pingbacks—but modern—and allow websites to notify each other about different types of activity (like replies on social media). As of 2017, the protocol is a W3C recommendation.
One of the main reasons I love blogging is the lively discussions my posts generate. Exchanging ideas with like-minded people brings me joy, helps me broaden my knowledge, and lets me forge long-term connections. Those conversations can’t thrive without a welcoming space. Broadly speaking, I categorize this feedback into two groups: private channels such as email and direct messages, and public venues like social-media posts or forums. In this article I’ll briefly outline the tools I’ve been using to manage public discussions on this blog, explore other comment-management solutions, and describe the changes I’m implementing in my current setup moving forward.
