@sorenpeter Points 2 & 3 aren't really applicable here in the discussion of the threading model really I'm afraid. WebMentions is completely orthogonal to the discussion. Further, no-one that uses Twtxt really uses WebMentions, whilst yarnd
supports the use of WebMentions, it's very rarely used in practise (_if ever_) -- In fact I should just drop the feature entirely.
The use of WebSub OTOH is far more useful and is used by every single yarnd
pod everywhere (_no that there's that many around these days_) to subscribe to feed updates in ~near real-time _without_ having the poll constantly.~

(#2024-09-24T12:34:31Z) WebMentions does would work if we agreed to implement it correctly. I never figured out how yarnd's WebMentions work, so I decide to make my own, which I'm the only one using...
I had a look at WebSub, witch looks way more complex than WebMentions, and seem to need a lot more overhead. We don't need near realtime. We just need a way to notify someone that someone they don't know about mentioned or replied to their post.
