Bridgy

Fortunately, I'm not the first one to run into this problem, and so there's a free service available that solves this problem. If you sign up for brid.gy, you can link your social media accounts, including Mastodon, and brid.gy will automatically send webmentions to your site whenever one of your posts contains a link to your site, and people reply to, boost or favourite your post. Essentially, your Mastodon posts become an anchor for all the interactions on your blog posts.
