@slpng_giants Folks, the proof is there. Just think of it. You can be markedly happier, not play a part in the destruction of truth and democracy AND you can ensure Mark Zuckerberg loses a little bit of money. What’s bad here? https://twitter.com/bopinion/status/1226186234038452226 (twitter.com/_/status/1226395702328098816)

@bopinion People who deactivated Facebook in a study were happier afterward, reporting higher levels of life satisfaction and lower levels of depression and anxiety. That change is equal to about 25-40% of the beneficial effect typically reported for psychotherapy https://trib.al/IqNEOsM https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EQRJ4a1WkAEg6pa.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/1226186234038452226)

#
[chrisaldrich] I've been out most of the afternoon and haven't checked, but how did demos go? It sounded like everyone was still working away at finishing.
#
[chrisaldrich] GWG, did you demo the API plugin you created?
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: No. I was asleep
swentel joined the channel
#
GWG It isn't an API plugin. I added to Parse This.
#
GWG Also, there's swentel, so you can ask him to add a read post option for you
#
swentel oh, I'm not quite awake yet :)
#
swentel but shoot ;)
#
GWG swentel: [chrisaldrich] would like Indigenous to support read posts. As in read-of. There is also some experimental debating on status of read, but just the property is fine to start
#
swentel GWG, in the reader or to post? or I guess both?
#
[chrisaldrich] Both would be nice, but having it within the reader is where it would be used more often.
#
GWG Both, I believe
#
swentel ok, added as issues in my queues
#
swentel isn't /that/ hard
#
[chrisaldrich] though it should be an explicit posting function separate from marking items read/unread with the bigger feed.
#
[chrisaldrich] I suspect you could copy the functionality of likes/favorites/bookmarks, but just have a u-read-of property instead.
#
[chrisaldrich] Does anyone else widely use read posts besides the WordPress Post Kinds crowd?
#
swentel I don't yet, it's been on my mind now and then, since I read quite a lot
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: Indiebookclub
#
swentel GWG, micropub property is p-x-read-status if I read correctly?
#
Loqi [chrisaldrich], swentel: it seems like this conversation is more appropriate for #indieweb-dev
#
swentel right

#
[tantek] anyone have a non-grid photo stream on their site?
#
[tantek] like a normal serial stream but only your /photo posts?
#
aaronpk I used to until I changed it into a grid 😂
#
swentel hmm yeah, grid here too :)
simons joined the channel
#
[tantek] see what's strange is that people don't view photos in a grid like that on IG, they scroll a single column view
#
gRegorLove I do https://gregorlove.com/channels/photos/
#
[tantek] gRegorLove++
#
Loqi gRegorLove has 15 karma in this channel over the last year (73 in all channels)
#
swentel I could quickly create a filter I guess
#
gRegorLove Working on some changes, though mostly to the header and the captions
#
[tantek] how long has that URL worked for you?

#
[snarfed] hey, i totally missed that we passed the 2M webmentions in the wild mark recently: https://brid.gy/#stats
#
[snarfed] based on the current number, and the rough estimate at 1M that bridgy was ~95% of the total, that means maybe 2.13M have been sent in the wild total as of now
#
[snarfed] and that probably underestimates because micro.blog is probably a much bigger sender/receiver now
#
[tantek] yeah!
#
[tantek] time for another blog post Snarfed! and excuse for mini cakes and such at next HWC!
#
[tantek] want to come next Wed 2/19 to HWC SF and say a few words?
#
[snarfed] hmm maybe!
