clone1018 It's nice to see more WebSub implementations out in the wild! I love the potential use cases of WebSub in enabling quick social feed polling in readers (potentially allowing near-real-time updates to show in combination with technologies like web sockets). Amazing to see an implementation in Elixir too!

Agreed! Websockets is one of my other hobbies and Elixir makes that a breeze too. Given another free weekend I'd like to see about minimizing some of the overhead of the Elixir implementation of WebSub just to make potential maintenance easy. Maybe DETS instead of a Postgres dependency :D?
