LoqiA repost on the indieweb is a post that is purely a 100% re-publication of another post. The act of reposting is an umbrella term that covers the general practice of republishing another post typically on the same service or silo, but more and more across sites https://indieweb.org/repost

LoqiA quotation is a type of post that is primarily a subset of the contents of another post, and often has a citation of that other post https://indieweb.org/repost_with_comment
acegiakSo the thing I'm referring to is reposting the original content in it's entirety AND adding comment which the wiki suggests is something like a "quote tweet"?
acegiaksemantically I'm not quoting it to illustrate a point I'm making and I'm not replying to the original post, I'm showing the audience a piece of content and then adding additional commentary or content on top
KevinMarks_Twitter lore: ev originally suggested the recycle ♻ symbol for retweet in SMS Twitter, then realised that it only showed on iPhones at the time
KevinMarks_fisking is the practice of reposting an article and interpolating commentary on between lines of it, often to mock or rebut the arguments in it.
tantekacegiak: I thought it was a *side-effect* of Tumblr interactions, that is Tumblr doesn't have "normal" comments, but rather only has repost with comment, and thus those are essentially just "comments" (especially since they show up on the original!) "so-and-so reposted this and said: .... etc."
aaronpk... we were going to use the hosted service, but it was missing some plugins, so we'll self-host. so how do we self-host? so this led to this application hosting platform service, libre.sh, you're meant to run your own node, and i like the way it's put together
aaronpk... i'm hoping to build up a cluster of web hosting that's reliable so that anybody that wants a website it's easy, you can just ask your friend

Loqiacegiak: tantek left you a message 37 minutes ago: could you also add your plain-repost (no comment) examples to https://indieweb.org/repost#IndieWeb_Examples ? And especially if you know when you first posted one!
miklbacegiak quote is reserved, so I would have to use something else, which is fine, but if the core plugin added quote later, it wouldn't be compatible
LoqiLeaf is a health tracker device that looks like jewelry that runs passively 24/7, wirelessly syncs with a native app (iOS or Android), runs for 6 months on a replaceable battery, and tracks steps, distance, calories burned, active minutes, sleep, monthly cycle, meditation https://indieweb.org/Leaf
LoqiA chatbot is a piece of software that interacts with a user via a chat/DM protocol rather than having its own app or protocol https://indieweb.org/chatbot
[acegiak_net]So my partner is gonna move her site from paid shared hosting to our homeserver and were thinking about indieweb stuff. The thing is her current website is her professional portfolio and we're trying to work out how to reconcile that with the kind of social contebt, if any, that we usually see on indieweb sites
sgregeracegiak: re your question on indieweb feeds not on the front page - i have a somewhat similar use case and have my composite stream on a subpage, but featuring the feed in a sidebar https://sebastiangreger.net
MasoudAbkenarI'm using Wordpress with SemPress theme. I want to write a short note and POSSE it to twitter. Which "Post Kind" or "Format" should I choose so that my note looks fine on my own blog?
miklbMasoudAbkenar you should be able to adjust that in the theme. I'm not sure if SemPress is set up to have child themes, or if you'll need to adjust the main style.css
GWGBy the way, since I am the only one it seems who likes the theme compatibility setting as it is implemented, it will be gone or rewritten in the next release, whenever that is.
MasoudAbkenarGWG I have no problem with titles not showing up. If I end up POSSEing it to twitter, and twitter of course doesn't show the title, I don't want the content to be different from my blog and twitter. So no title is fine with me.

gRegorLoveSo I totally spaced on Bellingham HWC last night. Weather travel delays would have kept me anyway. Hope nobody new tried to show up (nobody has in quite some time)
[cdevroe]GGW I am going to spend a few minutes to see if I can find out why Bridgy Publish won’t call the proper actions when using the WordPress mobile app. I’ve run into this in the past. Hopefully my experience will make this not too terrible of a hunt.
[cdevroe]gregorlove It does trigger plugins. Most hooks work, if not all. But there are a few idiosyncratic things I’ve run across. As an example, when posting from the Admin and hooking into ‘publish_post’ (as an example) the post format is set, but not using the API. I don’t know why. But that is just one thing that I came across when I was only tweeting statuses and couldn’t figure out why the mobile app wouldn’t fire my plugin properly.
[cdevroe]I’m guessing the plugin assumes that the Bridgy links aren’t on the page for 5 seconds? Or that Bridgy itself may not see the new URL for that amount of time? I’m not sure.
GWGI may remove it. It was basically because in the WordPress Post UI, setting Syndication Links from the metabox and setting it from Bridgy were interfering with each other.
[cdevroe]Please let me know if there is anyway that I can help. I have a vested interest in having it work properly as I’d like to post more from my phone.
GWG[cdevroe]: Me too. I didn't consider the WordPress mobile apps, as I wanted to get the chain set for MicroPub. Quill and Inkspot both do well on mobile.
[cdevroe]I’m also fully aware that I’m now relying heavily on Bridgy for everything to work. That is also something I’d like to eliminate in the future.
[cdevroe]GWG I suppose I could. I’m not against it. But it seems like the plugin as it is (just removing the cron) should allow it to work with _any_ app that uses the API
[cdevroe]GWG — I believe it. In a recent post on my blog I even remarked that keeping up with all of this is almost too exhausting and would considering ditching all of POSSE at some point.
miklb[cdevroe] micropub isn't so much as a new app, but another way to get data into your site. Depending on your mobile platform, there are multiple ways to send content to your site via Micropub.
[acegiak_net]Hey Gwg: any ideas why my post-kinds box in my editor window is missing after pulling from you? I haven't had a chance to go through and debug it yet
[eddie]Hey everyone. I’m new around here. I’m working on becoming a good citizen of the IndieWeb ? However, I’ve run into an issue. I have github and twitter accounts linked from my home page (http://eddiehinkle.com) When I test it here: https://indiewebify.me/validate-rel-me/?url=http%3A%2F%2Feddiehinkle.com it says Twitter doesn’t link back, but I do have it linking back. Any thoughts on if I’m missing something here?
