@GWG I'm having issues with self-pingbacks and saw you in a thread describing the problem / proposing a solution 9 years ago 😂 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5130#no2
#
kaeldra.
do you know, is your fix there something I could add to my site? since I'm assuming it will never get fixed at scale at this point
#
kaeldra.
or, the reason I switched back to self pingback instead of self-webmention was that I like how pingbacks render better... is there a way I could change how self-webmentions render to show the linking article title instead of only my root domain?

GWG I am also interested in what kaeldra. is talking about here. I like either but more control would be great.

That was when I was the Pingbacks and Trackbacks component maintainer

I gave up on trying to fix Pingbacks and focused on webmentions though. After the drama

I guess the question is can self-pingbacks be prioritized and self-webmentions turned off. I don't think whatever development/communication background is of use to J. Random WordPress Webmention Plugin User.

(kaeldra.'s full question with details though ought to be looked at, not my terrible tl;dr)
