@cleverdevil Just created a Lambda function that looks at my website's On This Day page, and publishes the memories to a special channel in my Microsub server. #IndieWeb #OwnYourMemories (twitter.com/_/status/965401712012951552)

mcepl Hi, guys, trying to verify my identity with PGP and https://openid.indieauth.com/auth?me=https://matej.ceplovi.cz/&redirect_uri=%2Fopenid%2Fcomplete tells me that there is not https://matej.ceplovi.cz/mcepl-gpg.pub, which is blatantly false. What am I doing wrong?

@cubicgarden #indieweb community. Really would like to see a Micropub client for Gratitude logging and also a Mastodon poster similar to the twitter one.
Feel like I could (maybe) rewrite previous open code to do some of this :) (twitter.com/_/status/965544896588406784)

# [mifga] say, anyone here using hugo to also create assets such as slideshows and printables? Seeing [grantcodes] presentations got me thinking, especially when I noticed a a hugo theme (haven’t tested it or really evaluated it) makes it easy to concat and build evolving sildeshows without always fussing with the file deliverable you’d usually use with remark.js or reveal.js. If anyone has had luck doing more than just static sites with hugo and wants to
# [mifga] blog posts, advice, I’d be grateful!
snarfed joined the channel
# 
[kevinmarks] A reveal.js slideshow is just a sequence of <section> tags - would you be making each slide as a separate file?
# [mifga] the trick is needing to update, as the content changes (in particular, dealing with 3D software, 3D hardware) — am looking for a gardening/updating strategy instead of always hunting through a single doc through tags. atomized content concat’d into piece is easier to version!
# [kevinmarks] Hugo makes it easy enough to compile a tag into a custom file. Changing sequence might be a bit more work - it has chronological and reverse chronological toggles, but I'm not sur how you'd do arbitrary order easily.
# [kevinmarks] Might be easier to just use slid.es

If we fight for #indieweb with our attention, time, and support, we still have a chance to save our right to free flowing info. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DWarePgVoAIv_VH.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/965647708005523457)

# [squorch] …it’s going to be easier to transfer my domains in their entirety to dreamhost, won’t it.
bengo joined the channel
# [squorch] lol “your time to edit ran out”
[cleverdevil] joined the channel
# 
[cleverdevil] It doesn’t really matter. DreamHost will happily host you without hosting your domains. But they’ll also love you to transfer your domains in.
# [squorch] oh yes, but no 1-click install goodness
# [cleverdevil] You get 1-click installs.
# [squorch] huh.
# [squorch] right you are.
# [cleverdevil] You just have to add in the domain first and add Hosting to it. Make sure the name servers point to DreamHost.
# [squorch] “fully hosted” is.. yeah.

# [squorch] knocking the rust off, hoo boy
# [squorch] so, uh, has anyone made the leap from mail on google to mail elsewhere? I mean. I can always declare email bankruptcy, just would rather not do that.
[eddie] and barpthewire joined the channel
# [cleverdevil] Best way to do it, squorch, is to use a mail client to download all of your email and then you can copy it all over to the new provider.
# [cleverdevil] There are actually some better ways via CLI if you’re comfortable.

# [cleverdevil] Notably, you can try offlineimap
# [cleverdevil] Which I like very much.

Zegnat Note that Gmail might still be iffy, as it isn’t strictly IMAP. MailMate developer wrote about that if you are interested in the technicals :) https://manual.mailmate-app.com/account_setup#gmail

# [cleverdevil] Sigh. I still badly want a tool that will connect to my Facebook account and export everything in a good format (preferably mf2-json). Better yet, I’d like it to post it all to my Micropub endpoint so I can extricate myself completely.
# [cleverdevil] Does anyone know of such a thing? Or good building blocks for such a thing?

# @sdepolo Great post by @andrestaltz. I agree "The Web began dying in 2014." We have lost much of what we sought to protect with #netNeutrality. The #indieweb movement still has a chance to save the open internet if enough of us join the revolution. http://bit.ly/2Htf18F https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DWblcVYV4AAlf3G.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/965711447094263808)
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "ascii armored" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "ascii armored is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# [cleverdevil] Neotoma seems very much in-process. Interesting, though.
# [cleverdevil] I did find this: https://github.com/danburzo/fb-export
# [cleverdevil] Which looks promising.
# [cleverdevil] Holy cow this is amazing.
# [cleverdevil] It already creates very nice JSON export data.
# [cleverdevil] With everything needed to do a transformation into mf2-json.
# [cleverdevil] Yup. I think I've found my next project.
bengo joined the channel
# [cleverdevil] I think a *ton* of people would.
# [cleverdevil] If there was:
# [cleverdevil] 1. A super easy to set up CMS that supported Micropub well out of the box.
# [cleverdevil] 2. An easy tool (perhaps self-service via the web) that could export everything and publish it back to your site.
# [cleverdevil] I think that could greatly accelerate adoption.
# [cleverdevil] I'm no great fan of Twitter, but I feel a lot less compelled to delete myself from it.
# [cleverdevil] Facebook on the other hand, I want to get off of as quickly as possible.
Pierre-O and [mrkrndvs] joined the channel
# [cleverdevil] Um.... it took me like 20 minutes with this to generate a (decently close) full mf2-json export of my entire Facebook history.
# [cleverdevil] (Cheating slightly by bodging it into mf2py...)
# [cleverdevil] This is *entirely* possible.
# [cleverdevil] I may just create it as a pull request against his repo.
# [cleverdevil] Hey, I didn't do much of anything here. This guy did the hard work and put it up on GitHub.
# [cleverdevil] But, if I can build on his excellent start and output mf2-json, its a total game changer.
# [cleverdevil] I continue to be a terrible JavaScript programmer, of course 🙂
# [cleverdevil] But, hey, I think I can make it happen.
# [cleverdevil] Heh, I'll take it.

# [cleverdevil] The only missing piece, really, is that it exports to a custom JSON format, rather than to MF2-JSON
# [cleverdevil] Which is, frankly, not too hard to fix.
