You can, though I don't spend much time in IG.
#
chrisaldrich
In fact, that reminds me that I should fix my posts from Instagram to continue feeding back to my site...

[cleverdevil] can you recommend any Dreamhost starter deals for web hosting?
[cleverdevil] joined the channel
#
[cleverdevil]
Hmm, [tantek], they were cycling promos pretty frequently when I left.
#
[cleverdevil]
You may have luck with code “777,” which was a long time promo.
#
[cleverdevil]
Other than that, no recommendations on deals!
#
[tantek]
Thank you!

[Jacky Alcine] I had some notes after the last time I went to a HWC meetup about a “live posting” tool. The idea was that for an event post (ideally on my site), I’d associate it with a ‘hashtag’ ideally unique to the event and have those related posts ap...

jacky have you seen kevinmarks's noterlive?
#
[tantek]
what is noterlive
#

Noter Live is an open source live-noting tool by Kevin Marks that posts to Twitter and compiles the notes for posting as a full post https://indieweb.org/noterlive
#
jacky
oh wow, this looks like it

hm, I didn't want to have to anchor a hashtag tho

alright I'm giving in to IG multiphoto limitation annoyance and going to make two multiphoto posts instead of one because I can't stand to square crop either the landscape *or* the portrait photos from the same morning (each of which was taken in a row so splitting them up also does so according to temporal clustering, ~15 min apart)

btw does anyone else pre-check their hashtags before tweeting? to make sure they don't link to somethings undesirable?
#
tw2113
i hashtag less than i could
#
[tantek]
and apparently hashtags of the six primary+secondary colors are all oddly soothing
[eddie], [tantek], iasai, jjuran and [kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks]
You don't have to anchor a hashtag, it just prefixes the notes with that field, so you can clear it.
#
[kevinmarks]
Making noterlive.com work with micropub as well as twitter is a longstanding issue

Hi sknebel Anything planned to show at IWC remnote?

I'm trying to migrate from Mailchimp to Buttondown before I have to send my newsletter out tomorrow. That's sort of indie, but not very.

!tell kevinmarks,jacky noterlive is great, use it a ton there is an open issue to add a parser so if I dropped in someone’s name it would find the persons Twitter handle

but I am just starting to learn how IFPS works and need to go and really watch snarfed video from 2017 on why DNS and file storage better

#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] great! Would be good to add your IPFS blog post to /IPFS
#
Loqi
[tantek]: jgmac1106 left you a message 2 hours, 45 minutes ago: I wrote up a post on why to me IFPS and p2p not a new fad but the original dream of my web
#
[tantek]
Curious what your thoughts are about IPFS and /longevity
#
jgmac1106
I don’t know yet, but its always kinda been a dream some of the seeds here are decades old, p2p has longevity: http://bt.etree.org/
#
jgmac1106
there aren’t that many truly really old original seeds, but those files live on somewhere else…like I said just learning. Going back to watch snarfed videoo as well
#
jgmac1106
but I have always wanted the read write browser experience, so my curiousity mixed up in stuff like Beaker
#
jgmac1106
never understood why broswers weren’t also the write tools….but I never really understood how the tech worked
#
[tantek]
Because to write you have to support an authentication / identity system. Which browsers still haven’t agreed on
#
jgmac1106
I get that in Beaker…its the utlimate remix machine and when you combine it with idea that the data is spread everywhere so no one can take you down (well can always cut a pipe)
#
[tantek]
Extra work, plus no standard = didn’t get done
#
jgmac1106
ahh okaybut I just want go file>new>post
#
[tantek]
There will always be the question of where do you save it?
#
jgmac1106
so just starting to learn about ifps, not installing the plugin, don’t have time for that ye
#
[tantek]
I think the offline read/write case is particularly interesting
#
jgmac1106
and its just another server I am signing onto….just a matter do I want Humpty Dumpty sitting on mine or have all his pieces all over the place

https://gist.github.com/jgmac1106/7a473d25bcefa97f799c884bd02e081a/revisions I think this is the before and after from what people here told me to do

tbbrown
that htaccess file seems to work but i also needed to add RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
