#
chrisaldrich jgmac1106, that micropub reminder client is a solid idea. You should document that somewhere.
#
chrisaldrich What is reminder?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "reminder" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "reminder is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
chrisaldrich Incidentally, today is my 5th IndieWeb anniversary https://boffosocko.com/2014/04/25/administrative-note-new-blog-url/ The domain is older, but this was the day I began moving things over.

#
gRegorLove That sent me looking and I think it's nearly my anniversary too. I just manually PESOSed the tweet, haha https://gregorlove.com/2013/04/federated-comment-thread/
#
Loqi [gRegor Morrill] Federated comment thread. This is pretty rad. http://tantek.com/2013/113/b1/first-federated-indieweb-comment-thread
#
gRegorLove It's been a fun six years. Don't think I ever expected to find such a cool community like this.

Loqi indieweb has 2 karma in this channel over the last year (3 in all channels)

#
Ruxton it'll be my 3rd official year of indiewebbing in 2 week, but as I looked at that first post.. I find a good 2 years worth of post kinds not showing right :(
#
GWG Ruxton, sorry
#
GWG I want to fix anything I can
#
Ruxton it's all good man, thngs have changed a lot in 2 years
#
Ruxton I'm sure I'll work out why
#
Ruxton and fix it up
#
Ruxton I expect this kind of stuff living on the edge and am always happy to fix/patch
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich] Ruxton, there was a change in some of the microformats in post kinds once join a
#
[chrisaldrich] Once upon a time. I'll dig it up and give you a path forward if I can find it.
#
[chrisaldrich] A few changes in meta data may fix you up quickly.
#
Ruxton yeah I was pretty sure that was the case
#
[chrisaldrich] I remember having to change `read` to `read-of` once in post meta and it fought all my old posts and data back.
#
GWG I should have accounted for it
#
[chrisaldrich] Is it only a subset of kinds?
#
GWG I hold myself responsible every time
KempfCreative joined the channel
#
Loqi I agree
#
Ruxton atm the major difference is the lack of mf2_photo postmeta on the old posts
#
GWG I need to do a bunch of work on media handling
#
GWG I moved storage into the attachment meta
chrisaldrich joined the channel
#
chrisaldrich in that case a search and replace may get you back up and running.

#
Ruxton and mf2_h vs. mf2_type
nitot joined the channel
#
GWG mf2_h? I never saw that
#
GWG And mf2_type is only a Micropub thing
#
GWG Definitely need to do more work
#
GWG I did a ton of stuff on storage

chrisaldrich It's a quiet night, but if we continue with all this jargon, let's go to #dev or to #wordpress...

#
[chrisaldrich] ad-hoc_sessions << future of metadata suggested by GWG
#
Loqi ok, I added "future of metadata suggested by GWG" to the "See Also" section of /ad-hoc_sessions https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=59925&oldid=59201
#
GWG The future of WordPress metadata
#
[chrisaldrich] That too!
nitot, kraftbj, snarfed, oodani, [tantek] and wolftune joined the channel; mblaney left the channel
#
Zegnat What is ad-hoc sessions?
#
Loqi ad-hoc sessions is the idea (which needs a better name) that we host single topic sessions every month or two online that the community can gather around and discuss https://indieweb.org/ad-hoc_sessions

Jeremycherfas G'day IndieWeb
[josh_nadas] joined the channel
#
[josh_nadas] Good Morning!!
#
Jeremycherfas Have you done a profile at /chat-names yet [josh_nadas] ?
#
Jeremycherfas What is chat-names
#
Loqi Chat names is a list of chat regulars sorted by nickname, with their website and usual timezone(s) https://indieweb.org/chat-names
#
Jeremycherfas !tell [chrisaldrich] Is that new Twitter UI rolled out everywhere? I haven't seen it.
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
[tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] Apparently there a 30 hashtag limit per post now on Instagram (I thought it was 75 previously) Eg on this post https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwt6Af3J2Ug/

#
Zegnat I don’t think I have ever needed 30 hashtags in my life

#
Mikaela what is pixelfed?
#
Loqi PixelFed is open source software for social image sharing, similar to Instagram, that interoperates with other sites using several open standards including rel-me and ActivityPub https://indieweb.org/PixelFed
#
Mikaela Have you thought about that instead? :)

#
chrisaldrich There was anything left for another apocalypse?!
#
chrisaldrich jeremycherfas, I saw some articles about a potential new interface a few months back. Heard nothing since until I got it two days ago. Perhaps they're still testing and rolling out slowly?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich] Loqi, you owe me a cookie...
#
chrisaldrich Apparently [hugs] on usernames confuse Loqi with using !tell...
#
Jeremycherfas I guess the new Twitter UI must be coming piecemeal.

#
gRegorLove I thought FB just had one endpoint that spilled all your information these days
#
Zegnat gRegorLove, I think that one costs extra

#
chrisaldrich is still waiting for someone to build PESOS backfeed via Facebook email notifications...
#
Jeremycherfas If you build it, they will come.
#
Zegnat Last I was anywhere close to automation based off of email it was macros and visual basic on ms servers, which I would not touch again without a hazmat suit

[chrisaldrich] 😉
nitot, Melville, gRegorLove, eli_oat1 and [jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] [chrisaldrich] you and snarfed already figured out that it is 100% possible to backfeed from your own email.
#
[jgmac1106] Search chat Facebook and email and you will find it
[tantek] and [schmarty] joined the channel
#
[tantek] Mikaela, I only use Instagram as for POSSE, and only that because people I know follow me there. Since I have zero presence on Pixelfed, posting there now wouldn't help anyone see me who is presumably already following my website where I post the higher quality / dimensions versions of my photos
#
[tantek] I'm curious, do you use Pixelfed and if so, what was your motivation to do so, and is it in addition to your personal site, or do you use Pixelfed for your primary photo hosting/posting?
#
[tantek] [chrisaldrich] yes that would be a good use of email consuming
#
[tantek] presumably you could do it by giving an app like Bridgy permission to read *some* of your email, like IDK if it is possible to request / provide permission for a 3rd party app to only see one particular folder of your Gmail, and then you could simply autofile everything from FB there
#
[tantek] instead of having to give permission to all your email
#
jalcine I've used PixelFed to share images in a more 'curated' fashion into the fediverse. I'm thinking about redoing some theme logic on my site to post it solely from there tho
#
jalcine https://pixelfed.social/jacky

Loqi Jacky Alcine
#
[tantek] right, you should be able to federate direct from your site rather than at a secondary site
[grantcodes] joined the channel
#
aaronpk Yeah I don't know why I would want a pixelfed account, sounds like another thing to maintain when people can already follow my photos from my website. Which you should even be able to follow if you have a pixelfed account, tho I haven't confirmed if that actually works yet
#
[tantek] is there a photo following test suite?
#
[tantek] maybe that's a better question for dev

[tantek] wow this page is a bit all over the map: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discoverability - nice to know we're not the only ones that find defining discoverability in a useful way challenging
