It’s for everybody. :] But yes, webmentions were developed in the indieweb community and a lot of our personal sites support it so we can interact between our sites.
I’m biased, but the indieweb chat is a good place to keep up with things people are doing on their personal sites and get inspired! https://indieweb.org/discuss
Oops something went wrong with my Bridgy syndication so there’s some missing bits to this convo. This issue is being closed because the issue is actually with webmention.io

Hmm odd! I see it as “activity: rsvp” in the webmention.io mentions endpoint. I’m not sure how to link to that, though.
Webmentions are great! I’ve been using them since 2017 and it’s changed the way I interact. I just wrote an article about how I got into Webmention and other IndieWeb technologies. Give it a read (https://eddiehinkle.com/2018/07/20/11/article/) and join us (https://indieweb.org/discuss)
That’s a great idea. I’m doing something similar. I’m in the process of leaving Facebook, so I created three topics (Personal, Family, Tech) that people could sign up for. I have a monthly email that sends posts that are of the topics the person is interested in.
You’ve probably seen me ramble on about “IndieWeb” the last few years. Here’s a great A List Apart article on webmentions, the core of how we can start interacting from our own website instead of silos.
That’s great, thanks! I don’t see a problem with it being part of the same issue. If someone else working on Vouch does, they’ll leave a comment in the issue. As Vouch is relatively new in actual implementation, it’s great to have as many eyes on it as possible
Let the rabbit hole take you in!! 🙃 I’m slightly kidding, but also serious. I embraced the rabbit hole a year and a half ago. Best thing I ever did tech-wise!
Those are some valid concerns. One thing I’d like to point out at the bottom of the spec is a link to Vouch, which is an anti-spam extension to Webmention that is in development (https://indieweb.org/Vouch)
