Thanks Steve: it is a start and much more in May!
Appreciate the encouragement! Hope to bring the most broad set of #indieweb, #openweb, snd #fediverse advocates possible to #TakeBackSocial ….and can use your help!
@tantek.com The #Indieweb, #Openweb and #SpreadMastodon and the #Fediverse efforts are all very clearly cousins in one big movement!
So, I use Netlify’s webmention integration to send webmentions. It took ages to get just right, but it looks like it pings WordPress websites’ xmlrpc.php rather than a webmention endpoint. Makes sense, as xmlrpc.php will always exist, except there’s less chance your webmention will actually appear 🤷♂️

A #feditip to those trying other #fediverse software: Treat your new account as you would signing-up in a new #SNS.
A more detailed #feditips:
1. Let each of your account grow separately.
It is fine to follow certain groups and users. These are your ‘core’ interaction. But for the rest, keep them separate and let it grow organically.
2. Define a certain theme or topic or purpose for your new account.
Since we are in an interconnected network, you will end up having a major overlap between your first account and your succeeding accounts. Which might confuse you later (as well as your followers).
For example, I still post my new articles through my @youronlyone@c.im account, for two major reasons: Follower Badge, and #Indieweb support via #Bridgy.
3. Use this opportunity to learn how discovery, growth, and reach, works in the #MycelialNetwork (or #SocialWeb)
By letting your new account grow organically, and keeping the overlap with your first account at a minimum, you will be able to observe how discovery, growth, and reach, works in the network.
I have an account for #Calckey at @youronlyone@calckey.social
I also have an account for #Misskey at @youronlyone@hashi.icu
The Misskey and Calckey accounts are organically growing. I also discover new people, new content, that I haven't seen in my #Mastodon account (@youronlyone@c.im). And I asked myself, why? As I find answers to that question, I slowly adjust my interactions, and this in turn helped me discover more and reach wider.
The Mycelial Network (as I now prefer to call the Fediverse), is huge. When it started in 2008, it was small, and we all know each other. Today, I've probably only discovered and reached 0.5% of the network. It grew that fast.

Matt Baer blogs about the future of Write.as and WriteFreely — taking features that are currently separate products and integrating them into more of a suite:
At this point, I don’t think it makes sense for our self-hosted product to be chopped up into multiple components like our hosted tools are. Instead, I want to bring all those tools into a single application in WriteFreely.
Remark.as will also get fediverse replies. Sounds like a good direction.
