# [eddie] 1. I would like a microsite for my podcast, but I also want the content on my identity website. So should I post on both? Or do I post on the microsite and then repost on my site? Feels weird to not have it be original on my site, but reposting on the site FOR the podcast also feels strange

# snarfed !tell chrisaldrich i'm all for bridgy fed helping with that part too, but i'm hoping the community can help with research to see what works. want to help? https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/14
# snarfed definitely still finding inconsistent edge cases, but fully implemented and tested at least the most obvious ways. https://fed.brid.gy/#sites

# tantek is there a common name or phrase for the problem the Oatmeal recently documented? https://twitter.com/oatmeal/status/923250055540219904
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "pay for reach" yet. Would you like to create it?
# tantek pay for reach is a business practice by [[Facebook]], [[Twitter]], and other social media [[silos]], whereby they charge publishers (ask them to pay) to have their posts be shown to users on their site, even if the users have already opted-in ([[followed]], subscribed) to posts from those publishers.

# oodani Hi, I just implemented distributed IndieAuth on 00dani.me, but IndieAuth.com doesn't seem to be able to handle it? After approving the auth request on my site and redirecting back to IndieAuth.com, I get a message saying "Something went horribly wrong! I'm sorry, there's not much other information available. You should probably file an issue: https://github.com/aaronpk/IndieAuth.com/issues." I've no idea what could've gone wrong - I haven't filed an issue
# KartikPrabhu aaronpk^
# KartikPrabhu oodani: welcome. hopefully aaronpk would be able to resolve your issue
# KartikPrabhu aaronpk: it is kind of weird that clients use experimental properties
# KartikPrabhu which then trips up people testing it
# KartikPrabhu aaronpk: hmm yeah that sounds like a problem for people trying to test their implementation (such as this case). is there a indieauth.rocks?
# KartikPrabhu oodani: yeah that does seem to be a bug with woodwind
# KartikPrabhu shouldn't most "parsers" repsect the <base> tag?
# KartikPrabhu oodani: yup that seems correct to me
# KartikPrabhu oodani: thanks for reporting the weirdness!

# jeremycherfas Good morning IndieWeb
# jeremycherfas Timezones on chat.indieweb.org do not know about the end to daylight savings in Europe.
# jeremycherfas Very peachy indeed. I just wish there were a flag for whether or not to POSSE. Not everything deserves to be everywhere.
# jeremycherfas Had the first opportunity to use my automated bad comment delete script in the wild this morning and it failed. Because in all my testing, I have it the full filename, with extension. But the email that alerts me that there is a comment does not include the extension. Simple enough fix, but now need to wait for another opportunity to use it.
# jeremycherfas Zegnat, do you know how the bridge from Slack to IRC handles replies in a thread at Slack? It seems like they are ignored.
# jeremycherfas No prob. I'll find my reply there and repost here. I seem to recall a problem like this before.
# jeremycherfas Yes it is; but the hook up between micro.blog apps and Known seems to be hard-wired. Everything from one of the apps goes to Stream.

# jeremycherfas Ah; chat isn't logged, of course. I replied to your post about loudness, zegnat, as follows: Fascinating, especially the logging part. I have a dB meter on my phone for audio reasons but I’ve never thought to log.
# Zegnat But if you wrote it in Slack as a reply to a specific message, that information gets lost: https://imgur.com/GR8fjMw
# jeremycherfas OK. I use Slack to catch up from when I quit IRC, so if there are things that happened a while ago, I make them replies in a thread. That's obviously not such a good idea.
# oodani Update from earlier: I ended up keeping the rel="redirect_uri" verification as an optional extra rather than mandatory-for-all-IndieAuth-clients. https://00dani.me/articles/4/lemoncurry-1-5-0-now-with-indieauth Pretty proud of it honestly.

# Zegnat Pronoun Island << [https://github.com/witch-house/pronoun.is/issues/66 Internationalisation] has been a long-standing issue.
# Loqi ok, I added "[https://github.com/witch-house/pronoun.is/issues/66 Internationalisation] has been a long-standing issue." to the "See Also" section of /Pronoun_Island
# Zegnat Pronoun Island << IndieWeb example: [https://00dani.me/ 00dani.me]
# Loqi ok, I added "IndieWeb example: [https://00dani.me/ 00dani.me]" to the "See Also" section of /Pronoun_Island
# jeremycherfas My main pronoun beef is silly people who insist that singular they is not allowed.
# jeremycherfas Most prescriptivist language people are. Almost by definition.
# Zegnat Also note that the vCard reference spec allows for freeform gender: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6350#section-6.2.7
# [kevinmarks] Well, the fields are optional. So use p- gender-identity
# [kevinmarks] The problem with schema's approach (inherited from opensocial, so mea culpa) is that having free text with 2 predefined values encourages engineers to neaten things up by just using the predefined ones
# [kevinmarks] Especially those who think in terms of enums
# [kevinmarks] When we were adding this to vcard a few years ago, gender identity was a more common term
# [kevinmarks] Which is a sign of progress, I think.
# [kevinmarks] Sarah Dopp's post to the vcard mailing list really helped shape this https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/vcarddav/current/msg01778.html
# [kevinmarks] And if you read some of the replies you can see how we got the current compromise
# [kevinmarks] Adopting some 1970s medical record standard with numeric sex was the original proposal, before we got involved. And this is only 7 years ago
# [kevinmarks] Do we need a new term for what twitter does? "marketing gender"?
# [kevinmarks] Where they assign you a gender based on what they want to sell you things?
# Zegnat Also, oodani, you might like this one: http://wiki.zegnat.net/sexes - my go to table for whenever someone tells me biological sex is binary.
# [kevinmarks] Oops
# [kevinmarks] Maybe "targeted gender" is the term
# Zegnat Added Twitter to http://microformats.org/wiki/gender-examples#sites_and_services
nitot joined the channel
# [kevinmarks] They now let you see and edit your assigned gender
# Zegnat Also, apparently there is an IndieWeb tool to check your Twitter network’s gender: https://www.proporti.onl/
