I kept having Ruby/Jekyll issues when upgrading my Mac, so I have moved off of Jekyll and will not be working on this project anymore, going forward. I am going to flag this as won’t fix, but leave it open in case someone else wants to pick up the project from here.
@cgorshing Do you already have a draft of the necessary changes available that you could use to open a PR? I've been added as a contributor on the project and can work with you to merge them in.
I've created a PR for this but I haven't had a chance to throughly test it yet. The changes are small enough that I think it's in good shape, but if anyone could give this PR a shot, that'd be very helpful!
Well, irony of ironies, the Webmention client moved to explicitly not allowing Ruby 3 back in June of 2018, which means that if I upgrade the Webmention dependency, we lose the ability to run on Ruby 3. For now I'm going to hold this PR and hopefully the Webmention gem will get updated...

It doesn't look like they've published a new version of the gem, but this is good progress! Just gotta wait, now...
It's been some year... alright... finally getting back to this.
I've pushed this change to main. I've done some basic smoke testing but it deserves some more validation before I close the issue.
