Upon looking at things. You know how I'm planning on rebuilding my web presence here soon. I am having a toss up between Known and drupal now. Are they both just different, or does one have better support for IndieWeb than the other?

Known was designed with it in mind

But Drupal has a good extension

What is everyone up to this morning?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "everyone up to this morning" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "everyone up to this morning is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
cambridgeport90[
Not quite what I meant.

Wow....any other pocketcast users? Just saw the update... Could be some ways to get IndieWeb building blocks working with a player.
#
[jgmac1106]
You get 10 gigs of file storage...gonna have to dig deeper

Do we have a good soul here, who could write a blog post (or just a note) linking any of my recent posts in http://www.mardy.it? I'm writing a webmention server, and need a test post
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
@mardy if it’s a python app (noticed the site generator is python3), why not use mock with pytest and build an expected response to start with?
#
mardy
beko[m], [Lewis_Cowles]: it would really be easier if it's a real post, because the webmention implementation I'm writing is going to forward the webmention to isso (to "translate" it into a comment)
#
mardy
ah, wait, maybe it doesn't need to be a real thing, after all... I don't care testing isso itself
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
👍 you’re walking towards a good place there
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
What another server / service does is not as important as understanding the standard, and catching exceptions
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
in the case of exceptions, analyze what was expected vs what is and hey-presto a patch will be born
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
I think with some RFC’s this is not possible as the spec is unfortunately vague or open to interpretation. Early MIME RFC’s contain 1-3 examples. Really examples are the best things to have
#
mardy
[Lewis_Cowles]: yes, eventually I'll write a complete test suite with pytest to cover all corner cases, but for now I only need to test the basic functionality to clean up the code a bit
#
mardy
I think I'll use this: https://github.com/voxpelli/node-webmention-testpinger (it was in the page linked by beko[m])
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
I’ve not got that far with it, but I’ll be doing a similar thing for golang webmention service as a hobby at some point

I've something similar to bridge Okuna in the pipe but that's just one of those cute side projects. May never fly.
#
[Lewis_Cowles]
be an interesting write up too

awesome to see everyone helping out when we get questions but let's do our best to move to #indieweb-dev when they get technical

_sigh_ I love how Firefox will just randomly snipe an extension. They pulled Omnibear (again!) because they got build errors… a year after the latest update and even though it was approved when it last published

I raised it with the NUJ when they were offering a discount, asking why this was preferable to a domain of your own. No reply.

Anyone here using Google Adsense to make small moneys on their blog posts?
#
lucacavallaro[m]
I don't like adsense :c

[tantek]
Considering auto-greylisting (moderation queue) Webmentions from pages with adsense

I’d like to see some specifics on this (which screen readers etc), however it sounds plausible and without any obvious downside: https://twitter.com/redcrew/status/1176199213010604032

@redcrew
Did you know that when you capitalize the first letter of each word in your hashtag, it's easier for everyone to read? Screen readers will announce each word separately. Compare #MakeItEasyToRead to #makeiteasytoread #SocialMedia #accessibility

ok, I added "https://twitter.com/redcrew/status/1176199213010604032" to the "See Also" section of /hashtags https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=65014&oldid=59191
