In-reply-to » I have added a webmention endpoint to https://darch.dk using https://webmention.io - let see if it work from neotxt.dk to @sorenpeter

Does this make sense? Like my post will contain something like:

Hey @<darch http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt> blah blah

@darch@neotxt.dk But this is what I’m confused about. Why would my Twt contains a reference to http://darch.dk/social instead of http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt – which the later is what I @-mentioned? 🤔

I’m willing to get that Google™ is losing ad revenue from sponsored advertising and sponsors of Youtubers.

See, even a video I was just watching on Youtube just now, the guy said:

THanks for Surf Shark for sponsoring this video, it keeps the content free.

So that basically tells me that Google™ advertising on Youtube™ is utter bullshit. I have a funny feeling they’re (Google™’s) crack-down on ad-blocker is just an internal reaction to a losing battle with their ad revenue streams in the declins from their ad business.

As an aside @movq@www.uninformativ.de and I were yarning about this before… The reason this form of advertising works so well is “brand awareness”. There’s some interesting content, and you don’t mind that the guy or gal is sponsored by some company and they happen to make mention of it and even go into a special part of their video (without being annoying about it). You don’t even fast forward or anything because you already like their voice, and they’re not being completely obnoxious about what they’re promoting, and what they’re promoting isn’t complete garbage, malware or worse.

@darch@neotxt.dk I needn an example of where this breaks down I think. Do you happen to have one? 🤔 By all rights, looking at the code paths, the issue raised really doesn’t make sense to me. The Source is the Twt permalink on the source pod that contains an @-mention of the target’s Twtxt feed. So that should validate just fine hmm 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same ! The most powerful form of advertising for me is word of mouth and research👌 Not ad banners which I never look at (cause I’m blind) let alone click on! 🤣

SO now Linux GIzmos a website that I regularly like to subscribe to and read via RSS/Atom -> Twtxt has now suddenly gone down this path of “Please disable your adblocker, pretty please, because ads help support us!” – Geez christ! 😱 🤦‍♂️ The answer is “fuck no”. Not only can your ads not be trusted as you have no control over them, they can be downright dangerous too! 🤬 Fuck me 🤦‍♂️ Wtf is going on here?! First Youtube, now some random little site?!

I can see that your web page https://darch.dk/social has a <link rel="webmention" href="https://webmention.io/darch.dk/webmention"> in the page’s<head> which his good. But that is not what you’re linking to in your post, so that won’t get sent a WebMention
