rosipov I've been thinking about webmentions and bridgy - I like the idea of comment syndication, but I still have reliance on webmentions and bridgy services being up and maintained - and these are pretty new projects in the grand scheme of things. Have there been any discussions on the subject? Like, do people backup webmentions locally?
#
doesnm someone did (especially who have static site)
#
rosipov has a static site too
#
aaronpk bridgy doesn't store webmentions for you, so not sure what you mean there
#
aaronpk webmention.io does store webmentions for you, and i would absolutely recommend downloading your own copy of them to your own website
#
[artlung] yes. I capture http://webmention.io data on my lab site (and a few other sites) so am not reliant on them for display. https://github.com/artlung/lab.artlung.com/tree/master/webmention_data
#
aaronpk i run webmention.io and even i don't use it as permanent webmention storage
#
doesnm message above sent twice?
#
aaronpk i don't think so https://chat.indieweb.org/2025-05-07

#
aaronpk must be a client error then
#
[artlung] not doubled in slack for me either.
#
rosipov aaronpk and [artlung] that makes sense - I'll tinker with that!

#
[aciccarello] I should really work on copying http://webmention.io mentions to my site and only getting the latest updates
#
Loqi totally
#
doesnm next stage: use own webmention.io (or jamming)

[tantek] has someone made a service that takes a screenshot of a social media post and somehow looks it up (OCR, searching various services etc.) and then returns the URL permalink of the post? feels like the kind of thing that should be possible these days given various building blocks

[snarfed] also rosipov, re "pretty new," webmentions, Bridgy, and http://webmention.io are all over 13y old, https://indieweb.org/timeline#2012 , far older than many commercial services that have launched and died since then, https://indieweb.org/site-deaths

perryflynn rosipov: I working right now on a self-hosted syndication solution as simple PHP API. adding incoming mentions into my page works already. see bottom here: https://serverless.industries/2024/12/22/never-use-regexp-as-parser.en.html
#
Loqi [preview] [christian] Never use RegExp as a parser
#
perryflynn outgoing mentions only work manuall right now. micropub support for creating comments and likes is also planned, but will take some time.
#
Loqi friendly reminder perryflynn, that's a lot of dev jargon! API, parser, PHP, serverless, Micropub... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
perryflynn if I am ready I'll share the code on github
#
perryflynn ah yea sorry Loqi
