petermolnar it's good that the operating system password filter still works, beko: all I can see is stars!
# petermolnar what is hunter2?
# 
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "hunter2" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "hunter2 is ____", a sentence describing the term)

ketudb RE: The IndieAuth naming confusion (https://indieweb.org/IndieAuth-brainstorming#naming_confusion); Vouch Proxy (https://github.com/vouch/vouch-proxy) claims to support IndieAuth - does anyone know (offhand, I can do some digging if not) if it's referring to IndieAuth the website specifically, or IndieAuth the protocol?

# dragontamer5788 does anyone have an example of how an indie Webmention discussions work?
# dragontamer5788 Like, is it some kind of federated Twitter-like back and forth?
# 
gRegorLove Welcome dragontamer5788. Yeah people make posts on their own website that's in-reply-to a post on someone else's site. Webmention notifies the site you're replying to of the URL for your reply.
# gRegorLove Then it's up to them what to do with it. They could try to parse your post to display it as a comment (a lot of us use microformats2 for that), but that's not required as part of Webmention spec.
# [snarfed] dragontamer5788: lots of screenshots and examples on https://indieweb.org/Webmention-developer#IndieWeb_Examples
# dragontamer5788 Thanks gRegorLove and [snarfed]
#

# dragontamer5788 I'm a n00b at all things web. I'm currently investigating Hugo (static site generator) as a methodology behind my website. I found the indie-web wiki and started thinking about various features which bloggers are accustomed to.
# dragontamer5788 Webmentions seem like an interesting methodology for comments. I'm kind of curious how it could work in a static-site setting. I know about webmentions.io.
# superkuh dragontamer5788, I'm using nginx for my static site. I have it log POST data to a separate logfile. The trick is getting nginx to proxy to itself so it doesn't strip it.
# dragontamer5788 Lets say I make a static-website with a webmention link to webmentions.io. Obviously, the static site cannot update automatically when a webmention comes in.
# superkuh From there you can use a script or do it manually.
# dragontamer5788 Thanks superkuh: that's a very helpful idea.

# superkuh I banged my head against this one for about a month before aaronpk helped find a way.
# dragontamer5788 It probably wouldn't be too hard to create a list of webmentions as a list of files in Hugo to iterate though. The next Hugo-update could update the final html pages.
# dragontamer5788 PHP + Postgresql seems like it'd be more obvious and easier, lol. Choosing static has its downsides...
# superkuh Stay on target.
# superkuh It'll be easier in the long run.
# [snarfed] dragontamer5788: lots of posts and examples on how to do webmentions on static sites in general and Hugo specifically. https://indieweb.org/static_site_generator#See_Also , https://indieweb.org/Hugo , etc
# dragontamer5788 Thanks [snarfed]. This link is somewhat interesting: https://ascraeus.org/embracing-the-indieweb/
# dragontamer5788 > The only real solution is to embed a script to the static pages, and poll for webmentions at pageload time.
# dragontamer5788 Another approach which sounds doable.
# dragontamer5788 I guess I'm surprised to see a lot of different ways to solve this problem.
