@gaelicWizard @cohost Do you support ActivityPub or WebMention? (twitter.com/_/status/1541966481516138496)

@SachaGreif @aaronpk I'm curious, has anybody built some kind of "Hacker News for webmentions" that shows you a list of the content with the most mentions from around the web? (twitter.com/_/status/1541971092407209984)
#
@aaronpk ↩️ I built https://news.indieweb.org a long time ago to be exactly that! It even had upvoting via webmention, but I took that out a while ago. There's also https://indieweb.xyz with effectively subreddits (twitter.com/_/status/1541972721105481728)

@SachaGreif ↩️ Thanks, I’ll check it out! I should add webmentions support to @SidebarIO too.. (twitter.com/_/status/1541982757240582144)

@SachaGreif I just added Webmentions to https://meteor10.sachagreif.com/ and I'm still not 100% sure how it all works but it's so cool! I can't believe I've never done that for any other project. (twitter.com/_/status/1542004063709298688)
#
@mijustin ↩️ This is my first time hearing about webmentions! (twitter.com/_/status/1542005722174480385)
#
@SachaGreif ↩️ yeah it's weirdly under-appreciated for how useful it is. I followed this guide: https://mxb.dev/blog/using-webmentions-on-static-sites/ (twitter.com/_/status/1542007015597551618)
#
@SachaGreif ↩️ Oh, speaking of HN! Does HN itself support webmentions, or is there a way to enable that? I'd love to show all these comments on the site as well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31915573 (twitter.com/_/status/1542009757409902592)

[KevinMarks] Good news https://twitter.com/kennethrohde/status/1541901611647356928
#
@kennethrohde @webkit will now also have a repo for their standards positions 🥳 Much better than using the mailing list! https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FWXvUAJXkAY1SXF.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/1541901611647356928)

@jackyalcine ↩️ I've been thinking about hacking on something like http://Brid.gy but for HackerNews. Plenty of bots and libraries that could make this easier. I can check back in when I have more progress on it! (https://jacky.wtf/2022/6/3Etn) (twitter.com/_/status/1542151998522494979)

jacky you know
#
jacky with the advent of web components and the shadow dom
#
jacky there's _technically_ a safe way to allow people to bring their own CSS to your own site (in a way)
#
jacky I mention this b/c I always would like to slightly mimic the style of the place I'm linking from on my own site
#
jacky to give a bit more authenticity
#
[KevinMarks] You could use cascade layers to help with that https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@layer

#
jacky oh this is interesting
#
[KevinMarks] a lower overhead way to get a new css root than an iframe.
#
[KevinMarks] between that and :has , CSS is getting quite subtle improvements https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:has
