About IndieWeb Press This
From the official readme · v1.3Description
This plugin is based on the idea and code of @snarfed:
It requires the Press This plugin for WordPress with Bookmarklet support as of WordPress 4.9, when Press This was removed from WordPress.
One big IndieWeb raison d’être is using your own web site to reply,
like, repost, follow,
and RSVP to posts and events. You do this by annotating links on your site with simple microformats2 HTML.
Having said that, most people don’t want to write HTML to like or reply to something. WordPress’s Press This bookmarklets can already start a new post with a link to the page you’re currently viewing. This code adds IndieWeb microformats2 markup to that link. Combined the wordpress-webmention plugin, you can use this to respond to the current page with just two clicks.
What’s more, if you’re currently on a Facebook post or Twitter tweet, this adds the Bridgy Publish link that will reply, like, favorite, retweet, or even RSVP inside those social networks.
