has anyone approached gravatar about updating to mf2 for their hcard markup? https://en.gravatar.com/site/implement/profiles/

@FJdeKermadec
Your enlightened thought of the morning: if you position yourself as a leader of the #IndieWeb and #MicroBlogging movements, maybe the URL of your #RSS Feed should not contain the words “http://something-demo.appspot.com” in lieu of your blog’s actual domain? ?

Morning sebsel :D Doing IndieWeb stuff this weekend?
#
sebsel
Well, I shouldn't, because there's more important stuff to work on
#
sebsel
So yes, I'm doing IndieWeb stuff this weekend ;)

@miklb
@FJdeKermadec As long as the content stays at the domain, the url of a micro service can be switched and nothing breaks. IndieWeb at its core just means own your content at your own domain, not DIY everything.

FJdeKermadec has a point though. feed URLs have long lives outside your site, so owning at least a redirect on your domain makes sense. and granary-demo.appspot.com is a particularly bad domain name :P

considers buying granary.io
#

granary.rest would be...cute
#

done! PSA for granary users: i'm moving it to https://granary.io/ . feel free to update your links!
#
Zegnat
I guess I should check in my reader if I am subscribed to any granary feeds.
#
[miklb]
will appspot not redirect the requests?

I guess I should redirect something on my site to the granary url
#
aaronpk
that is what I teach about podcast publishing too
#
[miklb]
a CNAME record or an apache/nginx redirect?
#
aaronpk
Http redirect
#
snarfed
appspot will redirect soon

[miklb] the problem is that not all readers will replace the URLs when they see a 301. So important to check, in case appspot ever stops redirecting and the feed dies.

ah, gotcha

good morning indieweb!
#
@aaronpk
@FJdeKermadec You're right. I just switched my Atom feed to be a local URL that redirects to Granary. The reason I don't want to generate my own XML feed is it's too hard to get right, especially with all the nontraditional content on my home page like checkins. #indieweb

#
@FJdeKermadec
@aaronpk I agree, generating proper feeds is a nightmare as soon as one veers from pure text, even though the new #JSON feed format looks quite appealing… ?

Working on my web site. Indieweb is still way too difficult to understand imho.

He, I kinda want to tell @andrea that “Working on my web site.” is plenty IndieWeb already. I feel like we might sometimes be making it seem harder than it is with all our extra plumbing talk.

Looking for a http://micro.blog invite code. Working on my site this holiday weekend, have been waiting for a while. Timing would be good. :)

I just gave my one-and-a-half-year-old nephew a tour of my laptop stickers. I pointed to the IWC sticker and said “IndieWebCamp”, and I think he said “elbow”.

is there anything of promise in development to disrupt the walled gardens or are we nearing game over at this point?

Zegnat, re: "making it seem harder than it is with all our extra plumbing talk" yes - any help with moving plumbing talk to -dev is greatly appreciated! No matter how small the incidental jargon etc. mentions
