People are asking me to implement webmentions, and since I don't have a strong opinion on it (it would not be hard to implement), here's another poll: https://www.strawpoll.me/15428538
Webmentions are like blog pingbacks, essentially, if you remember those.
@Gargron could you make bare URLs not do web mentions, but @url do web mention?
like @http://ajroach42.com/ doing a web mention?
@ajroach42 @gargron
yeah, I had the same thought
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/6074#issuecomment-378446786
it marks it as an explicit reply/mention and not just a passing link.
