I've gone almost totally dark on the public web because I want to make it hard for supporters of a think tank investigating a project I worked on to harass me... But I'm itchy like if my website is hidden, do I exist?

That's a tricky situation.

Hallo, I'm implementing webmention and... I'm kind of wondering how do I test this stuff locally. Am I stuck with cURL?

Hi epilys! Good question, I think people have been doing it in different ways, but probably mostly cURL. There is https://webmention.rocks/ which is open source and could probably be run locally, as well as https://github.com/voxpelli/node-webmention-testpinger for sending a bunch of pings.

Over in #indieweb-dev you might be able to find some more people who have done similar things themselves and are happy to go deeper into the tech side. We try to keep this channel from going to deep into development talk :)

i think the fundamental problem here is that the problem is just complex enough that you can offer a distinct set of features, but just simple enough that any web dev will think "oh, i could make one of those"
