ketudb Hey folks, I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations - I'm looking for a good CMS/platform to build a searchable/filterable database of resources, something on-prem hostable.
#
ketudb I'm aiming for low coding necessary to do it, so preferably something where the team can add the columns and datasets via GUI, but I'm not sure what's good for that these days.

#
[jgmac1106] fixed my mf2 podcast feed, added my pdf collection to my website, and made a feed of torrents I am currently seeding, small stuff
#
jeremycherfas I'm continuing to build a theme almost from the ground up.
#
[jgmac1106] Hoping to get back to playing with Kirby soon, had to take a break while teaching
#
[jgmac1106] congrats jermycherfas
#
jeremycherfas Thanks, but very premature. The idea is to do presentation first, then add mf2.

#
jgmac1106 going through these old blogtalk talks it was amazing how many different types of *logs people thought there would be…glad these were reduced to hashtags and post types
ptonerDiscord[m] and [tonz] joined the channel
#
[tonz] In ’06 I think I presented what I called ‘the patchwork portal’ there together with my wife. Which was a practice example of how we let webtools develop alongside the community using it, by writing code to patch existing blog (internal and external), forum, wiki and static site tools together, with single sign-on for community members.
#
jgmac1106 yeah all the 06 sessions lost it seems, they were hosted on google video
#
jgmac1106 your paper: http://web.archive.org/web/20070607051740/https://blogtalk.net/Main/Papers?action=download&upname=ElmineWijnia_TonZijlstra_Patchworkportal.doc

#
[xavierroy] Now to find a good markdown editor for Android
KempfCreative joined the channel
#
jeremycherfas !tell [jgmac1106] Yeah, those were the days. And not so much has changed. I keep meaning to being that into my website, but then I think, why? I have the accompanying visuals, somewhere. It was fun to give, and I got into very hot water afterwards.
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
[schmarty] joined the channel
#
jgmac1106 yeah my class website was launched in 2001 and my teaching union wanted to to shut me down for establishing a precedent of “unpaid labor for ework”
#
petermolnar [xavierroy]: hugo on android actually makes sense, unlike wordpress on android which i did a long time ago
#
Zegnat “hugo on android”?
#
is0x3F probably via termux?
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] You can compile go for android now?
#
jacky I think that was a plan for it, yeah
patterson, eli_oat, polok and [xavierroy] joined the channel; polok left the channel
#
[xavierroy] [petermolnar_] figuring out how to get termux files accessible by the Android was confusing but all okay now.
#
[xavierroy] Yes. via Termux. Hugo is a pkg install away..
#
viaken Are Hugo's error messages awful or is it me?
[tantek] and [Rose] joined the channel
#
[tantek] what is Hugo?
#
Loqi Hugo is a static site generator written in Go https://indieweb.org/Hugo

#
[manton] Catching up on some of the Tumblr discussion... If y'all haven't heard it, this interview from Matt Mullenweg on The Verge podcast is excellent. Very relevant to the IndieWeb, although it's not mentioned by name exactly. [tantek] gets a mention, too. https://pod.link/430333725
fourtonfish joined the channel
#
[tantek] Second that. Definitely give it a listen. I get the sense that Matt is maybe looking for a bigger strategic impact here that "just" the obvious combinations of WordPress + Tumblr
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[manton] Yep. There is so much they could do... Opening up the Tumblr dashboard so it can work with non-Tumblr blogs, Webmention between Tumblr and WordPress.com's reader, etc.
#
[KevinMarks] I think "open social web" is him trying to remember "indieweb"
#
[KevinMarks] go see him, [tantek], he pretty much invited you
dopplerg-, wolftune and [fluffy] joined the channel
#
[fluffy] yeah I’m glad he made specific mention of adding RSS subscriptions back in.
#
[fluffy] Tumblr used to have built-in RSS subscriptions as well as built-in POSSE from RSS, but they got rid of it years ago.
#
[KevinMarks] Matt is singing our song, or at least in harmony
#
[fluffy] I found it puzzling that he talked about Tumblr not supporting outgoing RSS feeds though. THose never went away.
#
[fluffy] For what it’s worth, my early designs for Publ were way more Tumblr-esque before I decided to generalize it.
gxt joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] Known too owes a fair bit to tumblr
#
[tantek] [fluffy] Tumblr locked down their outbound RSS feeds behind only allowing Googlebot, so to everyone else their feeds look gone
#
[tantek] Not sure when that happened
#
[fluffy] But I subscribe to tumblr RSS feeds all the time
#
[fluffy] You just add /rss to the end of a URL
#
[fluffy] and it’ll even work for tag URLs
#
[tantek] Peter Milner posted more details in the dev channel
#
[tantek] Sorry. Darn autocorrect
#
[tantek] petermolnar
#
[tantek] That’s how you find the URL. Does it work for you in a browser?
#
[tantek] [KevinMarks] I believe he said “open social network”
#
[tantek] Or maybe “open social net”
#
[tantek] Maybe we need to crowdsource capturing the rest of the transcript
#
[fluffy] Some themes still provide theme autodiscovery yeah
#
[fluffy] it’s up to the theme though 😕
#
[fluffy] er, *feed autodiscovery
#
[tantek] And @KevinMarks, not just “pretty much”, he did invite me (last week before the announcement) to speak at WordCamp US.
#
[tantek] Nov 1-2 in St Louis - any other #indieweb-wordpress
#
[KevinMarks] That's great
