Hey @jimgroom - so i think i have comments enabled via Mastodon - so replying to the post with the assigned ID should show up as a comment on the post. Want to try and see if it's working?

@timklapdor @jimgroom Just replying in mastodon does it, right?

Nifty, your site is Jekyll? Hugo? the codeberg link in your source does not work

@cogdog @jimgroom Yep that's it :-) Site is built with 11ty. 11ty.dev/

Codeberg link was from my hastily copy/paste job. Code was originally from here:
cassidyjames.com/blog/fedivers

I just need to add the ID from the mastodon post, re-run the build and that inserts the comments section. Will have to go back to add to old posts, but it's possible.

@timklapdor @jimgroom This is so much better for comments in static sites then the vile Disqus

@cogdog @jimgroom 100%. I was looking at a few options that use GitHub, but I like this way more and managed to get it up and running in about an hour (including the time to rejig the CSS!). If we can do more like this with Mastodon it would help demonstrate its power and potential.

@timklapdor @cogdog @jimgroom Tim, you're tempting me and I don't need extra stuff to do right now!

@timklapdor Nice. I will try this shortly, and that is pretty slick

@timklapdor I tried it out, and you are now my blog hero!
