#
[schmarty] capjamesg now you've gone public about it 😳
#
[schmarty] (i also think about private posts.)
#
capjamesg[d] 😂
#
capjamesg[d] I noted how great tinned pineapple chunks are earlier this week.
#
capjamesg[d] It's not worth a blog post, but it may have been fun to post on something on a web page just for friends.
#
[schmarty] what is story?
#
Loqi A story is a singular (one per profile) time stream collection post, that consists of ephemeral photo and video posts that are shown in sequence one at a time and disappear from the collection some time after being added, usually 24 hours https://indieweb.org/story
#
[schmarty] capjamesg: you and aaronpk were the only IndieWeb examples noted on that page. 😮
#
capjamesg[d] I'm not thinking of building anything right now, but musing on whether I should explore it.

#
carrvo[d] That sounds like the heart of what I have setup: every page gets a list of people that can access it, or explicitly made anonymous. It might be easier for your setup to add access restrictions to a webspace path.
#
carrvo[d] I am not referring to the story because mine stick around.
#
carrvo[d] Post + access list = private post

#
[tantek] We've also used the term protected post right?
#
[tantek] I’m still mixed on what to call "private" like should it only apply to "private messages" for example, or even truly "private" only for you posts?
#
[tantek] Friends-only also resonates
#
carrvo[d] Probably a bad name propagated by examples like "use example.com/public and example.com/private" in tutorials.
#
[tantek] I also think services have an incentive to "blur" the meaning of "private" because they consider it still ok to share that information with advertisers
#
[tantek] Like a "private" post to 50 people is not really "private"
#
[Jo] that is a good point

#
jak2k Hi, the IndieAuth specs mentioned a `<link rel"indieauth-metadata" href="...">`. Is there an example for it in the wild?
#
[tantek] hi jak2k and welcome! we tend to discuss protocols, formats, and other standards in the #indieweb-dev channel to keep this channel more user-features and services focused. Also more likely to get better answers there!

nsmsn I'd like to add another site to the site-deaths wiki page today. https://read.cv/a-new-chapter
#
nsmsn Should this be placed under Upcoming, or Any Day Now/Acquihires?

#
[tantek] yes that definitely counts, go for it
#
nsmsn Do you think acquihires is the best spot, Tantek? It will be shut down later this year.
#
jasonshellen Ugh! Hate to see it, some great design work over there.
#
gRegor I'd say Upcoming, since they announced they're definitely shutting it down and how to export.
#
[tantek] yes Acquihires makes sense because that's what it says in their a-new-chapter post linked above
#
capjamesg[d] Light on detail but https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/17/perplexity-acquires-read-cv-a-social-media-platform-for-professionals/ gives a bit of background.
#
gRegor Definitely archive any pages with instructions on how to export and link those, maybe a short summary on the wiki

#
gRegor "Acquihire" seems more appropriate when they get acquired but keep running, when the future is ambiguous
#
gRegor Like /TinyLetter went on for years under Mailchimp, until last year
#
nsmsn OK, I'm editing "Upcoming", above Post News
#
gRegor Setting up /read.cv with How to Export could be good too; it will show up in the newsletter, get more eyes on it.
#
nsmsn I already exported my data. JSON, Markdown, aand a Next.js project (don't know what I'm going to do with that)
#
[tantek] good call gRegor
#
[tantek] and yes, good alert to get out there on the newsletter in case others need to export
