aaronpk so moving this convo from #indieweb-dev...
#
aaronpk if you are looking at someon’es post and see the list of people who have liked the post, do you expect that clicking on their face will take you to their profile? or to the per a link of their like?
#
aaronpk looking at what twitter does, clicking “16 likes” opens up a list of those people who have liked it, and clicking on those takes you to their profile
#
KartikPrabhu twitter is simpler to answer since likes are not bonafide postst
#
aaronpk i guess the question is why would someone click on a face in a face pile?
#
aaronpk like what are you hoping to learn?
#
aaronpk verifiability is one, “did this person actually like this post?”
#
aaronpk but you could also be curious about who this person is
gxt joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] On twitter that is what I do - click through to the person who liked my post to see if they're worth following
#
KartikPrabhu for indieweb-likes I use both "image+name" linked to their *-author info and "website" linked to their like-post.
#
KartikPrabhu facepiles are too low-fidelity to do both though
#
KartikPrabhu so you have to pick one I guess
#
aaronpk right, if you have to pick one, which is it?
#
aaronpk I suspect most people clicking through don’t actually care about the verifiability of the like
#
KartikPrabhu yeah, I think liking to their "profile"/homepage
#
KartikPrabhu since it literally is their "face":
#
KartikPrabhu I don't expect to click on a "face"/avatar and be taken to a post
#
aaronpk a related problem is what to do once a post has a significant number of likes, because showing too many images starts to get annoying
#
aaronpk and now i’m kind of tempted to do what twitter does, which is to load the list of people in a pop only if someone clicks
#
KartikPrabhu show the most recent "x" and then maybe an expandable element to show rest?
wolftune and dckc joined the channel
#
jacky I'd click on a post to see/learn about that person tbh
#
jacky that's a ticket for me to implement a hover-card from their h-card for this
gxt and wolftune joined the channel
#
aaronpk getting to the point that i want to be able to search the text of things i’ve liked and reposted
#
aaronpk adding that to the todo list

@benthompson Blogs = still the best representation of the Internet’s promise. Everyone should have a site that they own, not just a social media account (which are great for promoting blog posts). (twitter.com/_/status/1269631831617318913)

[prtksxna] ↩️ I asked https://samwilson.id.au/ if he’d be interested in this
#
[prtksxna] ↩️ He’s been interested in the Webmention MediaWiki extension too

[snarfed] even better, quickly hits the "how to define ownership' question with two perfect answers: 1) alternatives and portability, 2) owning the domain. https://twitter.com/flybrand/status/1269659133608890369
#
@flybrand @benthompson @arslibertatis It’s really easy to own the domain through Wordpress. It’s also easy to buy the domain elsewhere, then redirect. Owning your channel provides the best feedback - feedback enables growth. (twitter.com/_/status/1269659133608890369)
