@gr36 there’s a longer delay for syndication to Twitter, unfortunately. Micro.blog has a way to notify the service when you publish. As far as I can tell, IFTTT doesn’t offer anything like that. :
(If there’s a better way to syndicate to Twitter that includes a link back for Brid.gy, I’d love to know!)
@mdrockwell I dont bother sydicating short posts (under280), they share but without a link so webmentions don’t track back – mainly becuase I am not too fussed.
Everythign else from micro.blog is shared with a link, i use the json plugin to make sure everything share correctly.
@gr36 I’m specifically setting up mike.rockwell.mx as a replacement for Twitter and Instagram, so everything I publish there is short. ๐
I would prefer to cross-post through Micr.blog to simplify everything, but the lack of included link doesn’t allow me to use Brid.gy. So I’m cross-posting to Tumblr and Mastodon through Micro.blog and using IFTTT for Twitter. It’s not ideal, but until I find a better service for this or Micro.blog offers the option to include a link, this is the best option.
And although I’m sure it would be a considerable development investment, I would gladly pay to have Micro.blog handle all of these Webmention services for me. If only because the service is rock-solid for cross-posting and sending its own Webmentions. ๐

Hi Mike, happy Sunday! ๐
To you too!
And thank you, now Iโll just need to wait for Brid.gy to poll Twitter and send the Webmention to my site. ๐
Youโre welcome. Iโve found your recent Web toolsโ explorations quite interesting, by the way.
Itโs been a lot of fun! ๐

@manton I would love the option.
