#[jgmac1106]Can flip through pages in his CDs book each containing memories layered on forgotten histories..maybe that is the "jam post" the songs that aren't just a listen post but a memory
#[tw2113]not so much a cd book, but I know I have this typed up from years ago https://achooandthesneezes.com/achoo.json which is basically a JSON file with various mix CDs I made/named and the tracklists
#sknebelI guess understanding that difference would be an interesting rabbithole, but seems pretty good for what I assume is a bunch of simplifications of something thats actually quite hard to calculate really precisely
#GWGYes, and I was never good at that kind of math.
#sknebelbeen playing with wiki/"knowledge base" things a bit (both to find one I like and to figure out what features to borrow if I ever get annoyed enough to write my own).
#sknebelright now trying TiddlyWiki, which works ok but I'd need to figure out hosting and export (since it normally is this SPA thing, so by default I can't just easily pull out and publish a single page as far as I can tell)

#azzamsahi folks. Do you backup your webmentions somewhere else? Since we don't know how long those social media platform running.
#[tw2113]assuming they're stored on your own site, wouldn't they be technically part of your routine backups already?
#azzamsaSadly, I find many examples fetch them to "_cache" folder in development mode. then re-fetch again in the build env. They are not tracked in version control. I myself want it to be tracked by other repo, so I run little script to copy those mention into other tracked directory.
#[jgmac1106]unless you mean how one would display or write them, to me the listen (scrobble) post is just real time, listening to it now "songs that changed me" seems more archival like a collection

#jmacMorning IndieWeb. After two years I am finally learning how to use Bridgy's POSSE-publish feature. (Heretofore I'd been using Bridgy just for backfeed.) It's neat.
#jmacI hadn't encountered the idea of "invisible" syndication links before reading its own docs. (<a>-tags with no content!)
#GWGjmac: It is sort of a workaround that took off
#jmacBut sticking in <a href="[some url]"></a> with the express intent to make it a technically-legal source for webmentions to that URL feels a liiiiittle like one is stretching the intent of webmentions.
#jmacI can see the argument that it's just another kind of anchor tag, except between two webpages instead of within one page.

#[snarfed]definitely! using webmentions as a "trigger" for Bridgy Publish, instead of its own API, is absolutely a stretch
#jmacI don't see this as a fault on Bridgy! I love how it offloads as much as it can onto the Webmention standard -- this is just a twist I hadn't seen before
#[snarfed]thanks! the big motivation for reusing webmention was, for people whose sites already sent webmentions, they wouldn't need any extra code to automate bridgy publish, they'd just need to drop in the trigger link
#ZegnatJust note that, whether an a element contains text or not, does not remove them from the tab-navigation in browsers, nor will it hide the link from all assistive technology and the like, jmac. Had a discussion with [fluffy] about that not too long ago, based on https://github.com/PlaidWeb/Publ-templates-beesbuzz.biz/pull/8
#Loqi[Zegnat] #8 Add negative tabindex to skip focusing empty links in browsers
#[fluffy]I ended up putting meaningful text inside all of my <a>s and also use display:none to hide it on graphical browsers. That seems to work for everyone.
#ZegnatI still think it is on lynx and w3m to correctly implement hidden and tabindex from HTML. And I am unsure how much of actual webtraffic would come from either of those browsers. But making sure all links have text is never a bad idea :D

#petermolnarthere's also hidden="hidden" and aria-hidden
#petermolnarboth should remove them from practially everythin
#ZegnatBoth were mentioned in the GitHub issue. But in my testing, those did not help w3m :( That is on the browser though

#[chrisaldrich]Is anyone displaying received /invitation notifications via Webmention on their websites? Some are sending them. I recall that brid.gy used to send invitation notifications from syndicated copies on Facebook which I've facepiled on the original event post in WordPress before. Anyone have other examples?

#jackyhmmm if I ever did that, I wouldn't make them public tbh
