hmm I really need to get auto-POSSE-threading working since that should have threaded to my POSSE tweet of the event and I just forgot to manually include the reply-to link of the URL of the POSSE tweet of the event

manually redid it since I got the wiki URL wrong anyway :P

@selenalarson
I've been thinking a lot about giving up Facebook and what it would mean for the average user to delete their accounts. Some might lose the friends/connections, but the entire identity management part of FB is a big reason people stay.

Fun, as every single time with a propriatary project, slack is closing the IRC bridge, I guess we'll have a netsplit here too where slack users have their own net and IRC users too ;)
#
aaronpk
Nope our IRC bridge is the other direction and uses the Slack api directly so everything is fine!
#
aaronpk
Also hi!

Man I'm kind of behind with the stuff I wanted to do for my website last year, but on the other hand, everything else which I already implemented works quite nice and stable for years now I don't want to mees to much up ^^

@HongPong @ChrisAldrich @mlncn @Dries @swentel Hi @HongPong I was actually able to configure #linkback module after following your tips with composer. It worked really well. Loving it so far and will keep on testing it for #Webmention #posse #Indieweb https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DXwJuJFXUAAapgK.jpg

I’m not sure how or if this affects the chat here but Slack is doing away with the gateway to IRC. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16536254

[alexandernst] Saying Goodbye to Slack’s IRC and XMPP Gateways
#
[miklb]
[asuh] it won’t as aaronpk is using the Slack API and not relying on that gateway
#
Loqi
[Aaron Parecki] Don't worry! The IndieWebCamp Slack bridge isn't going anywhere! That is a gateway I wrote that uses the Slack API directly. The thing they're shutting off is being able to connect to slack with an IRC client.

Perhaps for all those being left in the cold, it's time to open up Slack to IRC as a service?
#
chrisaldrich
I'd used the word "bridge" but it might distract Snarfed from 4 other projects....
#
aaronpk
there isn't really a good solution
#
snarfed
chrisaldrich: lol i can prioritize
#
aaronpk
in order to use the RTM API you need an API key, which only slack admins can create
#
aaronpk
so even a bridge would not be usable unless the slack org admin created a key

fyi for anyone creating github issues with bridgy publish, it now supports labels, and now only uses existing labels. others are ignored. https://brid.gy/about#github-issue-comment (cc aaronpk tantek)
#
aaronpk
nice. i've gotta patch silo.pub to do that
#
aaronpk
ohno graphql
#
snarfed
i was skeptical too but it's not so bad
#
aaronpk
I suppose it's only a matter of time now until they deprecate their v3 API
#
snarfed
they still have some substantial holes to fill in
#
snarfed
and they're still shipping new stuff in v3 but not in v4, so they're clearly not committed
#
snarfed
as usual with github's org chart, i expect they're separate teams with different goals and minimal coordination :P
#
snarfed
(their api blog posts more or less say that)

@Lollipop_Social @MadalynSklar These are great questions.

I have some colleagues wrestling with graphql because the server they were using expected you to look up things via POST
