[Khurt] Sorry. I had to drop off. Source: https://islandinthenet.com/blinding-sun/, syndication: https://khurtwilliams.tumblr.com/post/189492454568/blinding-sun-nassaustreet-princetonnj

GWG Hi, [Khurt]
#
[Khurt] My understanding it that the response on the copy syndicated to tumblr should be sent back to the source.

#
chrisaldrich Khurt, sadly Webmention doesn't work that way. You'd need some third party software to force Tumblr to send responses there back to the original.
#
chrisaldrich Brid.gy does this for Twitter, Flickr, et al by leveraging the APIs for them to backfeed responses via webmention.
#
chrisaldrich To my knowledge there isn't a service that does this with Tumblr (yet). Or have you created one?
#
chrisaldrich Brid.gy does have a function to allow webmentions into it, but that's for when you're using Tumblr as your primary web presence--which I don't think you are.
#
chrisaldrich Further, it looks like your responses on Tumblr are done within Disqus, so in reality you'd need a third party service that does backfeed for Disqus.
#
chrisaldrich What is backfeed?
#
Loqi Backfeed is the process of syndicating interactions on your POSSE copies back (AKA reverse syndicating) to your original posts https://indieweb.org/backfeed

[jgmac1106] if he went through micro.blog you can post to tumblr that is how I POSSE to tumblr
#
GWG [Rose]: If you are volunteering to test a micro.blog Syndication solution...

#
[Rose] I am!
#
GWG [Rose]: I may use it as a hack day project
#
GWG Again, it would be a secret custom feed that was generated by ticking the box in Micropub or the editor
#
GWG Then, it will ping micro.blog to tell it to check the feed

[Khurt] Hi [chrisaldrich], I think I misunderstood the intent of the information here: https://brid.gy/tumblr/khurtwilliams.tumblr.com
#
GWG And, [manton] is now sending webmentions for the posse url if you enable it, but I can poll the json api to get it as well.
#
[Rose] Very interesting. I look forward to seeing what you do 🙂
