excited for the mastodon rise@molly0xfff I literally just closed it down today. π
Maybe someday again when I can do a two way integration with activity pub the way I've been dreaming of for years.

Wladimir Palant@joel WebMention and ActivityPub arenβt exactly the same thing.
Iβve added WebMention support to my blog three years ago. My experience matches the one in this post in some points but not others. I receive exactly zero spam for some reason and no mentions from Bridgy either. But I have to agree: there are only few mentions, and itβs usually from sites like lobste.rs so I barely publish any of those (I pre-moderate comments on my blog). All in all, the only reason itβs still running is that the maintenance effort is virtually non-existent.

Maho π¦π»@SmartmanApps @qkslvrwolf @molly0xfff @blog yeah! I have been thinking in this crazy idea yesterday. I know that I can push the whole content to the fediverse, but the consumption on mastodon feels weird. And we have seen this idea from thread to blog post before, but what about from blog post to thread?
There is nothing that says that it should be 1:1 from article to notes, so basically dividing the post in sections and each section is a reply, creating a thread. Thoughs?
@mapache lol this is literally what I want, where each statement or section of a post essentially gets a custom comment thread via an activity pub post. Nice.
@qkslvrwolf yes! that would be a novel idea, I am sure I have not seen that before. It will require to be very careful on how separate each section of the post, or use some LLM to convert it to a thread, but otherwise feasible.
@mapache I would guess there's libraries that could help

@mapache But that said, I'll bet even a fairly rudimentary algorithm that just tries to break at punctuation and if that fails breaks at work boundaries would work surprisingly well.
@mapache looks like you already have this, basically? And as a static site too, even better.
