[miklb]
so, what’s the best way to syndicate to mastodon from WordPress?
#
aaronpk
no need to syndicate with snarfed's new fed.brid.gy!
#
aaronpk
mastodon people will be able to follow your site directly once you set that up
#
[miklb]
I have atom feed, set up the nginx rules. That’s it then?
#
aaronpk
i think so? haven't actually set it up myself yet
#
[miklb]
hmm. Under How do I use it? it only covers likes, replies and reposts. Thus why I thought I needed something else to syndicate content with.

[chrisaldrich]
That does sound nice. I was just looking at the documentation myself.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I had the same thought as miklb
#
[chrisaldrich]
Though if that's the case what becomes one's subscribeable address format-wise?
#
aaronpk
hm am I misunderstanding it?
#
[miklb]
yeah, I don’t think it handles straight syndication
renem joined the channel
#
aaronpk
i don't know how to make it fetch posts
#
[miklb]
I like the idea of being @memiklb.com instead of being on mastodon.social
#
aaronpk
yeah i mean that's the whole point of the specs Mastodon is based on ?
#
[miklb]
still a little too heady for me I think.

Hi tantek. I guess you must be on London time.

GWG
Isn't everyone?

tantek
jeremycherfas: yes indeed, @W3CAB meeting

Not entirely GWG. I am UTC+1. Normally this place is more or less dead until all the transatlantic folks wake up. Occasional night owls like chrisaldrich notwithstanding.

I am UTC+1 right now too

Following up on a discussion the other day about Micro.blog for Mac requiring High Sierra, I changed my mind. So if you're on Sierra and want to try out the Micropub posting, you can grab the latest build here. Thanks! https://s3.amazonaws.com/micro.blog/mac/Micro.blog_1.0b11.zip
#
aaronpk
ooh nice. hope that wasn't too much work to change!
#
tantek
awesome!
#
[manton]
Wasn't much work at all. I was using one API that was easy to rewrite, and had some 10.13-only code that wasn't being used quite yet, so easy to disable.
#
skippy
sweet! Thanks!

[manton]
No problem!

Anyone got any interest in a google assistant micropub client? I got a basic proof on concept working the other day
#
tantek
I'm interested in a Firefox webextension micropub client
#
grantcodes
Is that not omnibear? I thought that worked now?
#
tantek
sorry was thinking something more minimal for responses like the webshare webextension
#
tantek
looks for a github issue
#
grantcodes
what is webshare?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "webshare" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
tantek
walked into that one

And with the actual Web Share API (as far as I'm aware) we would need the "Web Share Target" API which isn't finished yet
#
sknebel
but given the response there and to the mastodon requests (https://github.com/Mte90/Share-Backported/issues/23 ) they don't seem to be interested in adding things they can't just handle with opening a tab with a fixed page with the url added

sknebel: so perhaps an opportunity to fork and make one that does

I'll probably look into adjusting omnibear for my purposes, don't think I need other sharing things
#
skippy
grantcodes: what is your Google Assistant micropub client?
#
grantcodes
skippy: Don't think anyone else can use it at the moment, but it lets you post with your voice (or keyboard on android)
#
skippy
neat!
#
grantcodes
thing is it's mainly notes since voice is a bit limited
#
skippy
I'm interested, though unsure if I'f ever use it.
#
grantcodes
Ha yeah that is my main issue too
#
grantcodes
In theory it could work the same on alexa & cortana
#
aaronpk
alexa doesn't handle arbitrary speech-to-text very well. better at pattern matching
#
skippy
grantcodes: are you using api.ai ?
#
skippy
neat. I've fiddled with that. It's fun.
#
grantcodes
Yeah, took a while to understand it but think I more or less understand it now

if 2 silo clients are "the perfect way to enjoy the indieweb" quite a few people are missing from said indieweb.
