↩️ Yeah. Diaspora was using our mailing list when they were getting started before they had their own. We all met up at OSCON and that meeting spurred the creation of the IndieWeb community. MediaGoblin, I helped them get started too. This stuff was my life in 2009-12.

No we did not "all met up at OSCON". We all met up at /FSWS2010 which then spurred aaronpk and me to fork off an create IndieWeb
#
tantek__
was there an OSCON in July 2010 in Portland? Is that perhaps the source of confusion?
#
tantek__
what is timeline
#
Loqi
The timeline briefly documents key IndieWeb (and influencing thereof) terms/ideas/concepts, implementations, specifications, events, and other achievements; people involved, and dates/URLs for each https://indieweb.org/timeline
#
aaronpk
There was, but I don't think i went in 2010
#
tantek__
Ah I see the source of likely confusion. FSWS was 2010-07-18
#
tantek__
literally the day after FSWS2010
#
tantek__
I also did not go to OSCON 2010
#
aaronpk
wow I didn't realize that it was right after! Was that the reason that date was chosen for FSWS?
#
tantek__
Maybe! We'd have to ask evan

↩️ are you confusing #OSCON2010 & #FSWS2010 (which was literally the day before #OSCON)? #FSWS2010 was the meeting that spurred us (@aaronpk @t) to create the #IndieWeb community. Neither of us went to OSCON that year. cc: @aprilaser More: http://tantek.com/t4wC1

@sadlerjw http://Micro.blog is actually awesome, as far as i can tell! It's a slightly different kind of thing but I've seen the guy who built it talk about it and i think it's pretty cool.

Diversity on http://micro.blog and and the @indiewebcamp — > These are many hurdles. The way I see it, they all come from the Indieweb movement and how that movement was birthed in the first place. https://vega.micro.blog/2018/08/20/diversity-on-microblog.html

Oh my,... won't name sites. Dear web developers, if your webapp weights more than 500KB (on page load) you are doing it wrong. If it's a static page (text and pictures) it should be in 1KB-100KB range. #IndieWeb

Zegnat, KevinMarks_ I feel like I've seen that post already but maybe only briefly skimmed it

I dug a little deeper (timeline, replies to) and found this presentation which IMO is far more interesting: https://www.sachajudd.com/one-direction/

Zegnat; I didn't think Vega's post was that amazing when I first read it. Re-reading, I'm still not sure that it is anything more than one person's perspective of a complicated thing. They do admit to a reductionist point of view. Overall, my response is that nobody is forcing anybody to use any social site. It is a choice.
#
jeremycherfas
And yes, I find Sacha Judd's more thought provoking.
#
Zegnat
I think Vega does a good job of pointing out at what points we might be "losing" people

jeremycherfas
I agree. And I have almost lost myself at times. I also think it is still early days, and that because there is no single thing that is the IndieWeb it is very difficult to see how to fix that. When I see the discussions going on about the various kinds of auth and the error messages and all the rest of it, I don't say that I am excluded. I say, better wait a little while.

[kevinmarks]: ohh is that why clicking the permalink returns 404? I was wondering! I saw the post in my reader but was confused when I tried clicking through

#
[kevinmarks]
do you have another way to ping him? He seems to be building something very microsub shaped, and you should be chatting
#
aaronpk
I can see his posts I just can't reply to them because my code expects the permalinks to be visible. I'll try to fix that
#
[kevinmarks]
ah, OK. You're both in Portland, so should be able to meet

what’s with the Matt Trout posts? looks dodgy and i’m not clicking on it to find out
#
[davidmead]
seeing them in #dev and #indieweb from 2 differnt users
#
aaronpk
[davidmead]: that's spam that is somehow still leaking through to slack
#
[davidmead]
btw aaronpk, aperture is good again for me. thanks
#
aaronpk
oh good
#
aaronpk
ahhh they changed the spam phrase slightly so one got through to slack. at least the auto-blocking is working still.
#
[davidmead]
just had to do a couple of login/out dances with the different readers I’m using, but it’s all back to working great

had to add a ‘new’ account to indigenous with the slash after my URL and it popped right back into showing the feeds
#
[davidmead]
so the readers now see `davidjohnmead.com/blog` and `davidjohnmead.com/blog/` as different

Those two are different, so that sounds right :)
#
Zegnat
Might have something to do with a recent URL normalisation that aaronpk did to Aperture? I think it came to light when someone accidentally created two accounts.
#
aaronpk
yeah that's what started this whole thing
#
aaronpk
I forgot to post-process all the existing accounts to convert them to the correct URL

↩️ .@kevinmarks and the rest of @indiewebcamp crew foresaw this social media drama years ago, and proposed we wean ourselves from the giant media social silos sooner than later. Few cared back then. Now we have to go much farther than that, and much faster.

That's the opposite of a subtweet - a leading @ would only have gone to people who follow both of us

isn't the .@ supposed to stop that?

What is subtweet?

A subtweet is a tweet commenting about someone without including their @-name, so they are not notified https://indieweb.org/subtweet
