@marcoarment Podcasters and CMS makers: Next version of Overcast looks for a link in every episode's show notes with <a rel="payment">. If present, Overcast adds a nice green "$" button on the Now Playing screen that opens up that donation/Patreon/membership URL of your choice. (twitter.com/_/status/1028451747734409216)

chander I finally figured it out. It was because of some markup in my template (I was using the independent publisher theme). Will try to add a reference this to the wiki as it can trip up newbies like me https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/691

[jgmac1106] @chandler yes we know why the u-photo leaks from Independent Publisher into Twitter.. As a community we need to maintain our own fork to keep it current

GWG Morning all
#
Loqi GWG: [jgmac1106] left you a message 2 days, 22 hours ago: good luck and safe flight, next time fly standby on something with wifi
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: Like who?
#
Zegnat I think the blogs.harvard.edu might be fitting for /site-deaths, [jgmac1106] :)
#
[jgmac1106] Yeah that was the name... Could not remember
#
[jgmac1106] Still crazy they are taking it down
#
[jgmac1106] Ha ha @gwg
#
[jgmac1106] Morning @zegnat
#
Zegnat Mornin’ :)

Zegnat [jgmac1106], you’ll be happy to hear my posting UI design is nearing its final stages. Getting ever closer to blogging!

#
[jgmac1106] sweet! Congrats, if you are putting as much thought into rest of UI as you did with the radial button it is going to look awesome
#
@jgmac1106 @davewiner @holden Adding https://blogs.harvard.edu/ to Site Deaths https://indieweb.org/site-deaths made me sad. Like burying history.

@davidmead Differences in #indieweb readers using microformats or RSS as your feed source (http://djm.click/blog/b/5ZZ) (twitter.com/_/status/1028651278740672512)
#
aaronpk ^^ why we need to fix this for wordpress
#
davidmead i was wondering if guttenberg update is going to make this worse aaronpk
#
aaronpk Almost certainly, which is why I wanted to experiment with the alternate approach
#
davidmead i installed the ‘classic editor’ plugin just in case, but i may just use quill to post everything going forward, or shift from WP (again)

@schmarty Strengthening a code of conduct, more Twitter quitters, and protocol security vs accessibility. It's your < 10min update on the #IndieWeb community!

[kevinmarks] Interesting https://twitter.com/shannoncoulter/status/1028632688586936320?s=19
#
@shannoncoulter Good morning! To encourage Twitter to drop Alex Jones, I just blocked the Twitter accounts of every Fortune 500 company w/ a Twitter presence. Ready to mass block Twitter's most lucrative advertisers with me? There are three quick & easy ways. Instructions are in this thread. (twitter.com/_/status/1028632688586936320)

#
Zegnat [kevinmarks], if I block a Twitter account, do advertisements bought by the accounts still get through? Or is everything blocked at once?
botka, bot34, [cleverdevil], barpthewire and jgmac1106 joined the channel
#
sknebel pretty sure ads are blocked too
#
sknebel at least you can say "block this user" on ads

@ChrisAldrich ↩️ Webmention is the more modern specification now as some have mentioned. I wrote a piece on it in @alistapart recently which includes some background and UI examples https://alistapart.com/article/webmentions-enabling-better-communication-on-the-internet It's part of an #IndieWeb suite of open protocols [more...] https://boffosocko.com/2018/08/12/reply-to-mariko-kosaka-on-rss-blogging-and-linkbacks/ (twitter.com/_/status/1028720594102042624)
#
Zegnat I don’t even know if I see ads ... I use the Andy Baio trick to see the timeline
#
sknebel I also only see them if Firefox decides to silently kill uBlock again
#
Zegnat Still a great way to read Twitter (if reading Twitter on twitter.com is your thing): https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&vertical=default&q=filter%3Afollows%20-filter%3Areplies&src=typd
botka and [tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] So I got an account restoration message today for @t:
jalcine joined the channel
#
[tantek] However several other accounts which I have done very little with lately got the same / similar “locked” message and asking me to add a phone number.
KapiX joined the channel
#
[tantek] So it’s back to the support request and follow-up emails routine a bunch more times
#
[tantek] (Not sure if that slack screenshot upload made it)
#
sknebel if you shared a screenshot, that didn't get through to IRC
#
[tantek] Yes, right after “@t:”

[manton], [chrisaldrich] and DenSchub joined the channel
#
[tantek] And was able to log in to twitter @t again
#
[tantek] Though 12 other accounts which I had done nothing recently with have been similarly locked and requesting verify phone number to unlock. Including such innocuous accounts as @css3color and @css3ui
#
[tantek] Kinda ridiculous. I’m wondering if they ran a script locking (nearly) all accounts that have never added a phone number

gRegorLove Hm, del.icio.us homepage "The delicious site is temporarily offline while we move servers. We'll be back!
#
gRegorLove Your bookmarks are safe and sound. The site should be available again on Monday, July 24."

jalcine welp
#
gRegorLove Heh https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/997311953000435712
#
@Pinboard @JosephRooks @Delicious That's the old message from last year. I guess the site went down (twitter.com/_/status/997311953000435712)
#
gRegorLove (According to site-deaths it's been in read-only mode since then, but still)
#
Zegnat According to /Delicious Pinboard had it available readonly with an exporter... but that all seems to have disappeared? I don’t know what exactly happened and the Pinboard Twitter isn’t very tech or bookmarks oriented at the moment
#
gRegorLove Yeah, that tweet above he acknowledges it's down but doesn't seem to want to do anything about it.
#
Zegnat By finding that Tweet you have found more than me, when I looked at it ~3 days ago :P https://chat.indieweb.org/2018-08-09/1533801373658200
#
Loqi [Zegnat] Hmm, has Pinboard abbandoned Delicious? It never seemed to have completed its server move
#
gRegorLove Heh
