[tantek] if it's transparent, does it actually have a color?

#
jacky what is irc
#
Loqi Internet Relay Chat (abbreviated IRC), in particular the #indieweb channel on the irc.freenode.net server, is the primary community discussion forum for IndieWebCamp and anything about the IndieWeb https://indieweb.org/IRC
#
jacky hmm was looking for a way to markup my IRC nicknames on my site
#
jacky could just make a u-url of my hcard with the scheme to `irc`
[eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] jacky, you want to link to YOUR irc nickname from your homepage? Is that the goal?
#
jacky yeah!
#
jacky most clients could use that to open a DM (there's some people who I only chat with via IRC lol)
#
aaronpk Pretty sure tantek does this!
#
aaronpk What is contact?
#
Loqi communication in the context of the indieweb refers to using your personal website as a starting point and potentially way for people to contact you https://indieweb.org/contact
#
jacky ahh it's not there :(
#
[eddie] Yeah I’m wondering if he replaced it with the IndieWeb Slack
#
[eddie] Also jacky, indieweb-dev for some tips from sknebel
KempfCreative and [kevinmarks786] joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks786] I remember trying out irc nick links, but not where we documented it
#
aaronpk it had very limited IRC client support IIRC
#
aaronpk lol IRC and IIRC
#
[kevinmarks786] That may be why we didn't use it

#
[tantek] IRC kinda sucks as a standard / specification. Like no test suites etc
#
[tantek] So “obscure” features like IRC URLs to open a query (private message) to someone don’t actually work in any clients I know of, so it’s useless as a publishing feature
#
[tantek] I wonder how that new IRC spec effort is going. Imma gonna guess they’re lost in arguments over new features (when they should just do a WHATWG and spec only what’s actually interoperable implemented as a baseline, with a test suite)
#
[tantek] Though this is too much dev talk

#
sknebel you also happen to be wrong
#
[tantek] Factually empty and insulting (“you ... wrong”) statement without evidence. Please check yourself and apologize
