# ben_thatmustbeme Huh? Missed the context about the date /tz comment there

# KartikPrabhu tantek_: why time with colon(s) and TZ offset without?
# KartikPrabhu i mean they are both hours and minutes
wolftune joined the channel
# ben_thatmustbeme to make it clear its TZinfo and not an actual time
# ben_thatmustbeme at least that was the logic i saw on the wiki
# ben_thatmustbeme This is something I have been looking to get figured out for the mf test suite as its really inconsistant
# KartikPrabhu it is an actual time though
# KartikPrabhu I mean no one says 3.45+0,45
# KartikPrabhu mixing the English and French for decimal points
# KartikPrabhu iso format uses T and colon in timezone
# ben_thatmustbeme markup may dictate you have to split things up, so just "+10:30" can be logically confused with 10:30 am unless a person knows about TZ encodings
# ben_thatmustbeme not that +1030 is great either really
# ben_thatmustbeme plays devils advocate as I'm not totally convinced one way or the other
# ben_thatmustbeme the not having T as an option is definitely important as you can't always encode things in a single spot
# ben_thatmustbeme s/spot/string/
# KartikPrabhu I am not convinced either, I sort of want some reason to pick one :P
# ben_thatmustbeme because of layout. ISO standard didn't have to worry about things like that
# KartikPrabhu it all seems random
# KartikPrabhu this is to go in the datetime property so not worried about "separating"
# ben_thatmustbeme i mean, I think its fine doing either in that case, its going to be parsable by software either way, but space instead of T is more humanly readable. Not sure without the colon is though
# ben_thatmustbeme in any case, i need sleep
# KartikPrabhu night
# KartikPrabhu decides to stick with iso for now

# petermolnar "don't write your own CMS" right, but sometimes writing a plugin to a cms takes more effort than writing a CMS...
# petermolnar which is why I am here
# petermolnar I've tried using some of the python based solutions but they all failed on doing one or another feature I wanted
# petermolnar some of them even failed to parse my markdown
# petermolnar sure, but there is a difference between 1/2 vs 3: with 1/2 you can revert and still have - in theory - something functional which at lest lest you post
# petermolnar with 3, if you screw it, it's gone
# petermolnar and version controlling, sure, but it's never this trivial

# [cleverdevil] mikirk ooooh that sounds nice.
# [cleverdevil] I'll check it out. Maybe they'll be willing to support Nextcloud News's sync API.

[mikirk] joined the channel
# [mikirk] cleverdevil quickfill strikes again?!
# [cleverdevil] Hmm... makes you manually add everyone you follow into the feeds list.
# [cleverdevil] Not a great user experience.
# [cleverdevil] Would be great if it just read your timeline as normal, and created a way to also read any "lists" you have.
# [cleverdevil] But, it has potential.
# snarfed yup, exactly why i built https://twitter-atom.appspot.com/
# [cleverdevil] snarfed which I like! But, I still think that having a native reader app that supports the Twitter streaming API is better.
# [cleverdevil] Twitter -> Atom -> News Reader makes for a weird experience, IMO.
# [cleverdevil] I still think that a browser vendor could absolutely *kill it* in this space.
# [cleverdevil] This one likely doesn't.
# [cleverdevil] But, I am not really sure.
# [cleverdevil] I am dreaming, here ?
# [cleverdevil] I basically would love to see something like Tweetbot or Twitterific for macOS integrated into a browser along with an RSS reader.
# [cleverdevil] With the ability to be viewing a site, and subscribe to a site or a twitter stream.
# [cleverdevil] With Indieweb interactions on everything.
# [cleverdevil] Dream dream dream!
# snarfed https://newsblur.com/ also has lots of desktop apps and native twitter support
# snarfed the other reason i like the https://twitter-atom.appspot.com/ family is that they give me *all* silo feeds i care about in my reader, including facebook, instagram, and google+
# [cleverdevil] Yeah, I think viewing twitter and microblogs as one type of content (real-time, short posts) and RSS/Atom subscriptions as another (longer form posts, etc.) is desirable from a user experience perspective,.
# [cleverdevil] Shoving it all into feeds gets it all into one place, but doesn't actually tailor the experience to the type of content particularly well.
todrobbins joined the channel
# [eddie] The way I’ve used Twitter for a long time is if I see a link to something I want to read, I’ll save the URL for later reading. If the reader supported some type of “Read Later” functionality, potentially tied in through Micropub to a site’s Bookmarks feed, You could potentially keep long-form reading in the same feed, but just concatenate it to an excerpt with an “Expand” button to open in reading mode or a “Save/Bookmark” button f
# [cleverdevil] Yeah, I definitely want everything unified into a single reader.
# [cleverdevil] I just want that reader to treat twitter/microblogs differently than other things ?
