what are app quits?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "app quits" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
tantek
what are silo quits?
#
Loqi
silo quits are public statements by individuals announcing they have publicly quit posting on or using (at all) various silos, either with intended permanence, or temporarily (sometimes referred to as taking a "social media break") https://indieweb.org/silo-quits
#

app quits are /app-quits

what is identity?
#
Loqi
A personal domain is a domain name that you personally own, control, and use to represent yourself on the internet https://indieweb.org/identity
#
Loqi
ok, I added "https://blog.coralproject.net/the-real-name-fallacy/" to the "See Also" section of /identity
nitot joined the channel
#
KevinMarks
Do we want pages on real names, Nymwars etc?
#
tantek
KevinMarks, it's ok if they start as sections on /identity
#
tantek
and then we can just create redirects to those sections for the terms
#
tantek
that is, you could start by making /identity no longer a redirect, and write a stub there
#
tantek
linking to /anonymity to start with and maybe at least mention those phrases
#
tantek
in particular with how they relate to indieweb / silos

hey aaronpk, out of curiosity, is it easy to see how many (native) wms webmention.io has received total? and maybe how many telegraph has successfully sent?

It's never logged outgoing webmentions on an ongoing basis. Incoming could be pulled for posts and sites that are currently in existence, but stats are deliberately wiped for deleted sites and posts.
