jamietanna[m] I started HWC in Nottingham and some weeks there are only a couple of us, but that's OK
#
KartikPrabhu yup. HWC is just a block of time to work on/discuss your website
#
[tantek] jamietanna++ indeed! And it looks like it's been steadily growing!
#
Loqi jamietanna has 3 karma in this channel over the last year (10 in all channels)
#
jamietanna[m] It has been mixed overall, the first was 18, most are 3-6 but some of the recent ones at ~10. October is going to be a hacktoberfest takeover so hoping to see more folks there
#
[tantek] those are great numbers!

[jeremycherfas] Buongiorno @lucacavallaro I am not an Italian but I live in Rome. A bit far from you. I have tried to get some interest in HWC here, but no luck so far. You would be very welcome at the virtual HWC at 19:00 on Mondays. Do you have a website already?

#
@realdavidpeach I've written a little #LastFM scrobble importer which I'm going to use to import scrobbles into my own website. Just scratching my own itch right now. Are there any people that would be interested in such a thing to pull in their listen/song/artist/album info via an api? (twitter.com/_/status/1175674197433028608)

#
cambridgeport90 Good afternoon everyone. You know, who else here in Boston is IndieWeb affiliated other than myself? I am curious because it might be worth starting a homebrew web site club chapter here, but all depends on the number of people.
#
Zegnat Cambridge, MA, has had some of the first IndieWebCamps. But not sure if there are any active chatters here from the area.
#
Zegnat You can always add yourself to the list of cities that have an interest, cambridgeport90: https://indieweb.org/HWC#More_cities_with_interest
#
cambridgeport90[ ill definitely have to consider looking into that.

#
cambridgeport90[ One of the questions I've always had ... when subscribing to feeds from a MicroSub server ... why when say, following someone from Mastodon, do you get tons more posts than just those from that person? Do the feeds somehow extend to their followers as well?
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] Which feed are you following?
#
[KevinMarks] You will get their likes and retoots too
#
aaronpk there's no "magic" though
#
aaronpk whatever you see on their page that you are following is what the reader will show
#
cambridgeport90[ I must be seeing a lot of re-post, then.
#
aaronpk that's very possible
#
cambridgeport90[ Iā€™m following quite a lot of them, I would actually have to go back and look.
#
cambridgeport90[ By the way, I'm still going to put up my own instance of Aperture. I just need to get paid next week and will have a server on it's way to my off site datacenter location. There needs to be more hosted services for the IndieWeb around here; one guy can't do anything. Two if you count Snarfed.
#
cambridgeport90[ One guy can't do everything, I should say. Jesus my fingers and brain aren't communicating, evidently.

#
KartikPrabhu nice read about "likes" vs "replies" https://frankchimero.com/blog/2019/like-compliment/
#
jacky yeah I'm realizing that following AP accounts might require more logic
#
jacky which is something I don't _want_ to build / tie in
#
jacky fed.brid.gy helps
#
cambridgeport90[ I need to figure out how to use that. I will be once I switch platforms from Wordpress. And that's not because Wordpress is bad.
#
GWG_ I am saddened at the Exodus
#
cambridgeport90[ It's not so much an exodus as it is me wanting to explore everything that's out there.
#
GWG_ I know
