Webmentions + Bridgy

I’m resurrecting an old tag after almost 4 years (!!!) because I wanted to note (to myself mostly) that I’ve added webmentions to my site, as well as proper Bridgy support. I think that means that my site is genuinely IndyWebbified, something I’ve been wanting to do for years. In essence, I have a Github Action that sends any new post to Bridgy, which then publishes my posts to Mastodon and Bluesky. Once I receive any reaction from Mastodon or Bluesky, Bridgy detects it and sends a POST to my webmention endpoint, which my new Cloudflare Worker picks up, verifies, and commits back to my Github repo. Cloudflare Pages detects the new push from Github, and then rebuilds and redeploys my site back to the web. All of this is really cool, and now that it’s setup, it’s time for me to go back into hibernation… Nah, just kidding. Life’s been busy, but this brief return to my blog has made me miss this little home of mine, and I’m hoping to do some more writing again. I’ve no idea what that…
