The wall
No mentions yet. This is expected until the receiver is switched on (see setup below) and someone links to a post.
How it works
A webmention is a notification from another website that says "I linked to your page". The free service webmention.io receives them for this site and exposes them as JSON. This page reads that JSON, checks every field, and shows it as plain text. Nothing a stranger writes is ever treated as HTML.

Data sources & privacy
This site's data service reads webmention.io (a public API) every 30 minutes, so your browser never contacts webmention.io and it never sees your IP address. Only mentions of this site's own blog posts are kept. Mention text is untrusted, shown as plain text, truncated, and only https links are made clickable. Avatars are not loaded.
