hi indieweb, I just got back from hiking in the outback for a few days, used the flight home to catch up on logs :-)
#
GWG
Thoughts?
#
mblaney
there was one thought on vouch I wanted to share. I read the discussion in the context of mastodon admins having to take on too much of a burden, and how we can simplify that process.
#
mblaney
so it seems that whitelists are required to deal with the mess, and vouch needs to work. aaronpk pointed out that some of his likes shouldn't be taken as vouch-worthy.
#
mblaney
I was thinking that vouch could take this into account by requiring the vouch url be u-in-reply-to rather than just proof-of-link.

mblaney
ie a reply means more than a like or repost.
#
miklb
that makes sense to me
#
mblaney
GWG, I assume you weren't asking for my thoughts on hiking ;-)

#
mblaney
cool I'm glad that makes sense miklb.
#
mblaney
it was interesting to read how shared lists can both help and cause issues for moderation too.
#
GWG
mblaney, no
#
GWG
But I am interested in vouch lists, which are problematic
#
GWG
I wasn't here either. Plane without wifi, feh

would be good to get those vouch problems up on the wiki GWG
mblaney joined the channel; mblaney1 left the channel
#
GWG
mblaney, I thought I did at IWS
#
GWG
I rewrote the Vouch page
#
mblaney
yeah I'm just reading that again now.
#
mblaney
the vouch page is good GWG, we probably need a new page for vouch lists and the issues involved in sharing them, but I think I would like to write some more code before getting too much further into it.
#
GWG
I tied mine to a manual domain whitelist
iasai joined the channel
#
mblaney
I think I will do that too GWG. I just added what I have currently to the /block_list page, which might be a good place to gather more thoughts on how to improve usability of both black and white lists.
#
GWG
I also had a bunch of ideas re following lists that I haven't implemented
#
miklb
is there an opportunity to introduce new terminology for those lists?
#
GWG
My idea was to use follow posts to generate a following list, which can be used for vouch

↩️ Lack of proper content discovery is a key issue for Twitter and Facebook. At the same time, lack of easy commenting functionality is a limiting factor for blogs, etc. IndieWeb has ideas https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started on how to do interoperable websites, focusing on personal publishing.

Re new terminology - blocklist is a fine replacement for blacklist. Whitelist has always had a fuzzier meaning. Followlist, showlist, likelist?

If vouch is the goal, why not that be the replacement for whitelist?

↩️ agreed with this. I post book reviews to my own site, and then also to Goodreads; it's nice to have them published somewhere else where people may come across them, but not to solely depend on that. This is the "POSSE" approach from the indieweb peeps, which I quite like.
