I got them all setup! tracking mentions from twitter and mastadon, i can tell you everything i know and learned as having just done it! i'm pretty sure that by me just puttin the url here, it'll comment on that post nerdy.dev/coloring-with-… they poll like every 30m

Sooo... Do I just sign up for WebMention.io and start hitting the API? Or do I need to do something with Bridgy too still? 🤔

bridgy gives webmention.io something to moderate, yep need both 👍 bridgy is easy, just need to add some markup to your page

Is there a way to test it? Or do you just throw yourself into the wild?! 😅

Sooo.... 1. Sign up for brid.gy 2. Sign up for webmention.io 3. Make requests to webmention.io 4. Profit?

yep! the requests come in a few formats, likes vs comments, etc. after youre handling all those, you're g2g!

I threw myself in. Maybe they have mock data

Also, I feel like there's definitely an article in this that I'm going to write up because I'm always a bit like "What am I signing up for here?" You jus' signed into brid.gy with Twitter? Did you have to sign in again with Mastodon? And then Bridgy broadcasts?

Yep!
