[Kupietz] Wait. This time I explicitly included `<a class="mention hashtag" href="https://mastodon.social/tags/indieweb" rel="tag">#<span>indieweb</span></a></p>` in the post body... and it's still not in the post.
# [Kupietz] I'm seeing a number of posts in https://indieweb.org/mastodon-tag-feed/index.php that aren't in #indieweb-stream. Like this one
# [Kupietz] Yes, gRegor, it's in the RSS and https://indieweb.org/mastodon-tag-feed/index.php, so it's making it as far as, er, _something_ on Indieweb before getting filtered out.
# [morgan] Hello 👋 happy friday, When I started working a lot more on my own website/projects and eschewing social media a lot more but joining the chat a lot more, I found it difficult to get enthused about the step of adding or collecting or sending or basically doing anything with webmentions. At that moment in time it felt like adding more to my plate when I was drastically reducing. Now I guess Im back, refreshed, and ready to add som
# [morgan] vegetables to my diet a little with some kind of more website domain focused way of interacting or acknowledging posts
# [morgan] Oh and definitely not meant to interrupt, basically Im gonna have a go at using web mentions
# [morgan] Ok, I think I set it up. Trying the form from indiewebify isnt seeming to register anything
# [morgan] I opted for http://webmention.io
# [morgan] ... 🙏 Does someone want to send me a message? Im not sure if Ill cURL on this friday, but I can try that next sometime https://www.morganwebdev.org/

{"status":"queued","summary":"Webmention was queued for processing","location":"https://webmention.io/www.morganwebdev.org/webmention/_W21tPByqAKF6L1vqVu7","source":"http://superkuh.com/welcome-to-webmentions-morgan.html","target":"https://www.morganwebdev.org/posts/benefits-of-static-sites/"}# [morgan] The link tag is in the head of my whole website, so that should work at that target ? Thank you! let me know if it updates on your end
# [morgan] Is there something per URL vs. domain maybe, or a delay or something, Im not seeing it yet
# [morgan] Anyways, closer to success, Ill tool around with some cURL maybe tomorrow 🙂!
# superkuh Perhaps webmention.io doesn't like my self signed certs with long lifetimes (modern corporate software will refuse to accept them). It does just say queued. It might not have validated because of the aforementioned on my site.

# [morgan] I had to share this because its so cool and news to me as I was working on my website today. If you enable `prefers-reduced-motion` Firefox gives an option, turned on by default with the setting change, for a simpler highlighter with reduced flashing when using dev tools, more or less. So they actively thought of devs with different access preferences or eye fatigue if they are using the inspector a lot this is just another
# [morgan] adjustment you can make to be more comfortable. Then, it also has a detail I like, which is sensible defaults. If someone has the reduced motion set in their browser, it makes sense to offer this as a default. Then in a third thing I liked, they let you know that the feature exists and is on with a tasteful info banner that can be dismissed. So you dont go into inspector and be like "Whats going on". This is some software design.
# [morgan] Software design here.
# [morgan] @superkuh Ill have to see, Ill use curl tomorrow and then maybe if that works then your theory prevails
# [Kupietz] Morgan I just sent webmention to https://www.morganwebdev.org/posts/benefits-of-static-sites
# [morgan] I got them! Im in 😎
# [morgan] If this webmention addition to my rotation works out, I can basically diversify my screen time and carve a little more time out to staying on my own website and people who have websites
