[tantek] We knew the use of social media for state-sponsored manipulation was bad, but wow: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/17/us/politics/russia-2016-influence-campaign.html

[Marco] Yeah, it is pretty annoying to see people without proper tech-knowledge accepting whatever is thrown at them as long as "Google" is printed across... 😞

# [jgmac1106] [adamprocter] yeah riot won't work for my students...maybe yours being more technical...but I have a feed of encryption warnings....want t people to be unsecure...make encryption annoying AF

[adamprocter] We have paid slack works great. I cannot see them moving to Riot. They love discord though
seekr and gkbrk joined the channel
# [jgmac1106] that makes sense....I need to focus on the chat community next semester....also recognize my students have 2-3 jobs and a kid or two....sitting around chatting is privilege and we been steeped in web culture for ever
# [adamprocter] Encrypted room is a royal pain
# [jgmac1106] gkbrk++
# [jgmac1106] so far I think [aaronpk] just documented one case but it had nothing to do with backlinking there are rules to handle http and https....but we have a dev channel if you dont mind going there

# [jgmac1106] [adamprocter] what about an ephermal chat room on a course website. As a teacher I don't want the logs..don't care if they dissapear..think that might actually help
# [jgmac1106] an indielogin chatroom on a website
# [adamprocter] Free slack probably still the best option I’d say.
# [jgmac1106] what I do now, just trying to contain it all IndieWeb style..but introducing all the moving parts enough cognitive load without adding hey here is IRC, and a wiki and you can add article to the wiki...
# [adamprocter] Ideally I think a group of “private” micro blogs collated into an RSS feed would be the way.
# [jgmac1106] ....somebody might be working on a grant....I am also considering just laying out the most basic bloggin system in Glitch with h-feeds, article, note, reply, photo to start....was playing with unicyclic last night and everybody could sign into a shared private reader
# [jgmac1106] ...chat is the last step...how fast do microsub readers poll...could a miropub/microsub chat window be added to websites, that was fast enough?...say equal to bad customer service chats
# [adamprocter] Yes. I had a thought once on the concept of team blogs with [manton] and indie web reader app [aaronpk] has been making
# [adamprocter] It would also enabling small communities of practice to have a “social site”
# [adamprocter] Appear.in is pretty good dunno what the limits are. But yes again I use Slack video (paid)
