gino Greetings all. Feeling rather overwhelmed by the range of options/technologies. I'm intending my site to be static if possible (exported from Emacs/Orgmode). Adding h- microformat tags isn't hard. Any thoughts for first steps (e.g. enabling fediverse notification of new posts)?
# 
KartikPrabhu first step would be to get a domain and start publishing content there
# KartikPrabhu everything else is step 1+
# gino Ok, sites down at the moment but I have a domain and am familiar with HTML/CSS, setting up Apache on a VPS. It's the hooking of activitypub into an (ideally) static site that puzzles me

# Desmond hi all
# gino The site current is exported from Orgmode markup to HTML, similar to using Markdown/Jekyll ...
# Desmond So, I tried doing a web sign-in for the indieweb wiki.
# Desmond I got an odd error. The page said: Cannot log in now
# Desmond Logging in is not possible when using MediaWiki\Extensions\Auth_remoteuser\AuthRemoteuserSessionProvider sessions.
# Desmond However, it did appear to log-in
# Desmond my name is my domain name
# KartikPrabhu aaronpk^^

# Desmond okay, it does not appear to be happening anymore
# Desmond Do people generally prefix their personal domains with www? Or do they just use their name?
# KartikPrabhu what is www?
# 
Loqi www in the context of the IndieWeb is an unnecessary subdomain on personal domain name https://indieweb.org/www

# [Vincent] If that makes sense?
# [Vincent] @gino some static site generators like 11ty can pull in dynamic content at build time. Or you can also push content in to the Github API (and force a rebuild if you use Netlify as a host) from an external service. Mine external service is on Heroku.

[cleverdevil] Still no word from Marco Arment on my email re: using Overcast.fm to scrobble listen history to my website.
# [cleverdevil] And nothing on the Overcast Slack either.
# [cleverdevil] (Other than a few other users registering their interest).
# [cleverdevil] Oh, and I am still rate limited 😛
# [cleverdevil] I am sure he gets a ton of feedback in his inbox, so definitely wise to be patient 😉

# snarfed removes the facebook and google+ signup buttons (both disabled a while ago) from https://brid.gy/ entirely
# [cleverdevil] "Because evil?"

# 
todrobbins thanks for the clarification snarfed
# todrobbins oh, for removing those
# todrobbins thank you!
# todrobbins am I misreading that you removed the old buttons?

# [cleverdevil] Heh, indeed. Just being snarky 😉
# todrobbins I wasn’t being snarky, just noticed
# todrobbins Whatevs

jacky I'm considering it to pipe it using https://indieweb.org/chat-names (as suggested on https://indieweb.org/Vouch#Which_pages_to_trust.3F)

# 
[schmarty] jacky i am not aware of anyone having implemented sending vouches along w/ their webmentions.
# [schmarty] however, GWG's webmention plugin for WordPress will process vouches that are sent.

petermolnar evening all; [kevinmarks] linked an article that got me thinking about my "landing" page. As a common practice, most of us serve it as a feed, but I've started questioning that decision. However, if I drop the feed, how would an indieweb following work on my site?
# petermolnar given there would be no central h-feed
