I wish I could have attended #IndieWebCamp Austin in person today, but had a good time attending remotely! Thanks to everyone who made the remote experience so usable. #IndieWeb http://boffosocko.com/2017/12/09/group-photo-at-indiewebcamp-austin-2017/ https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQpLSS6UIAAgmNS.jpg

Reading the pay session https://indieweb.org/2017/Austin/pay as useful procrastination before rolling my sleeves up on pay.
#
jeremycherfas
Memberful.com looks like a very interesting option
#
jeremycherfas
Except that the Starter level has a 10% transaction fee.
#
jeremycherfas
That's in addition to the Stripe fees
#
jeremycherfas
Maybe if I ever make the transition to having content in addition to the podcasts that could be said to offer value, it could be worth it.

what is pay?
#
Loqi
payment in the context of the indieweb refers to a feature on an indie web site that provides a way for the visitor to that website to pay (currency, gift card credit, etc.) the person represented by that indie web site https://indieweb.org/pay
#
Loqi
ok, I added "[https://www.candyjapan.com/behind-the-scenes/candy-japan-hit-with-credit-card-fraud some notes on credit card fraud from CandyJapan]" to the "See Also" section of /payment

sknebel, that Comics Beat link is interesting. The quoted tweets, especially. And I agree with Jeph that “Patreon is trying to solve a problem there that is A) not solvable and B) not their job to solve”

was working through the PGP setup described here: https://indieauth.com/pgp and was hung up for a while on the keybase command. wound up using their web UI; I think the command-line should be "keybase pgp sign -m 'challenge text from indieauth.com'"
#
cgrayson
(i.e., add `pgp` option)
#
schmarty
cgrayson: good catch! keybase changed their command line stuff recently. can you log in to the wiki? want to make the edit to the page?
#
cgrayson
oh, sure. does that indieauth.com page content come from the wiki?

An edit (AKA diff, change) is a special type of reply that indicates a set of suggested changes to the post it is replying to. A collection of (presumably related) suggested edits in open source is often called a patch or pull request https://indieweb.org/edit

regarding payments, something to keep in mind when looking at alternatives is how they handle fraud. E.g. a "take care of everything" service like patreon will shield you somewhat from chargebacks, interfacing with stripe directly won't (I added a link about this to the /pay page this EU morning)
