Looking for 3–5 people to help dogfood Verja, a community platform I'm building for small discussion spaces.
This isn't a public launch. I need real people to use it for a week or two and tell me where the friction is.
Minimum asks:
• Register and verify email
• Reply to the welcome thread
• Start one thread
• Tell me what was confusing, awkward, or broken
I'm interested in friction, not praise. Honest feedback is the goal.
I've been building something.
It's called Urban Wilderness. Real documentation for people trying to opt out of systems that weren't built for them. Self-hosted infrastructure, skill bartering, solar in a rented apartment.
There are also logs. And a story unfolding in public.
First post is up. Free, no account required.

“Weekly Notes 22/2026” by Thejesh GN
@thej: «This Saturday, we drove to Palakkad to meet Pradeep and Dhanya. It was a short morning walk and breakfast meet. We met at the fort, walked around, and chit-chatted while having breakfast at…»

Happy to participate! This should be a reply to your initial post.
Here's how my implementation works for receiving webmentions, BTW:
Verifying the link: I parse HTML with JustHTML looking for the incoming link. If the source is JSON I traverse it recursively. If it's plain text I grep for the link.
Extracting content: I start with a default h-entry (source URL, last-modified, backlink as content), and populate it from microformats.
Rendering: I use mf2dom to render HTML from microformats. There's no sanitization, but I have a list of domains I trust, otherwise incoming mentions are private (visible only to me). I could sanitize the HTML or trim it, but I haven't had the need yet.
A question for solo founders:
What is the dumbest excuse you have ever given yourself for not shooting your products?
We will start: "I'll do it next month."
Reply with yours. No judgment.
Write? Write on the web? Have a website you control? Or not? You might want to join James’ writing Zoom tomorrow. Introvert? Camera off is fine.

We just posted a new update on Patreon exploring moderation here on indieweb.social! ☁️ 💙
✨At last, my blog, Komorebi Sunrise, is kind of operational!✨
I've just posted my May games summary if you're interested👇
There are other things you can explore too but don't be too harsh, it's the first time I code a website😅
(Let's see if this works🤞)

I'm wondering if I might find a bunch of people here who scratch-build their webmention implementations... would be great to send test messages around and find out what works and what needs work...
Please look me up at https://khleedril.org/blog/2026-05-29--webmentions-posse.html
I look forward to hearing from you.
