<Loqi "[indienews] New post: "Adding St"> This makes me wonder if Calibre can export that data in a useful way. They've been aces for me at finding metadata.

Not insofar. Trying to decide what parts I *need*, and what I can do without. Micropub/sub is out, but I'm considering pubsubhubbub/webpub and webmention, but how to work those in is down the list

I have a question about webmention etiquette--does that belong in this channel or another one?
#
aaronpk
sounds on topic if it's not a development question!
#
mayakate[m]
well, sort of. I learned that webmentions are supposed to be resent on updates to content.
#
mayakate[m]
does that mean that it's okay to risk no-op webmentions (where no relevant change had occurred), or is that putting a burden on the recipient?
#
mayakate[m]
> update a post: send Webmentions to every link in the post before the update and after the update
#
mayakate[m]
Whatever Most People Are Doing is a fine answer
#
aaronpk
half and half i'd say
#
aaronpk
recipients definitely should be able to handle receiving multiple webmentions from a post even if the post doesn't change
#
aaronpk
(and not show them as duplicates for example)
#
aaronpk
and plenty of people send them this way especially in the case of static site build processes
#
mayakate[m]
<aaronpk "and plenty of people send them t"> you caught me :)
#
aaronpk
but at some point it becomes kind of spammy to send that many all the time

right, I don't want to clutter logs and such. I'll keep poking at my setup and see what I can manage.

I used to send webmentions to everything mentioned on my site, all the time, for quite some time, and I know a lot of folks complained (kinda rightfully so, but also the spec does say to handle duplicates) https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/10/30/reader-mail-webmention-spam/

[fluffy]
yeah it’s one of those things where like, yeah, receivers should handle duplicates, but senders should also avoid sending duplicates.
#
[schmarty]
dang i really need a tool that indexes all the posts in my indie reader subscriptions for searching after the fact.
#
ndegruchy
apache solr?
#
[tantek]
it's more like senders should avoid overzealous pinging
#
[tantek]
oops that's more dev
[snarfed], [hibs], leg, jonnybarnes, loicm and swentel joined the channel
#
jacky
yeah tbh I end up just sending them anyhow
#
aaronpk
so i just discovered that twitter has not one, but two separate lists of DMs *on top of* the main list of DMs
#
jacky
it's like "whose burden is it to bare?" in a lot
#
jacky
the requests and the 'others'
#
aaronpk
Messages, Message Requests, and Additional Messages
#
aaronpk
except I can't find how to navigate to Additional Messages
#
jacky
I think it's the bottom of Message Requests
#
aaronpk
omg it is
#
aaronpk
my list is so long i didn't think there was a bottom
#
jacky
lolol

Ah! Someone read it! I'll have that corrected
#
jacky
I should update my list of itches
#
jacky
I've been doing it in a 'stream' on my site

jacky
but it's not in chronological order (it seems)

[Jacky Alciné] A mockup of what I want the preview view to look like. Going to add a bit more interactivity to it when I get my Microsub logic working. Planning to use Phoenix.LiveView to give it a client-side feel while still keeping it with the server-side render... https://v2.jacky.wtf/media/image/entry%2428fb77c6-948f-46db-98de-7af6db593449/Screen%20Shot%202019-09-02%20at%2023.45.44-fullpage.png?v=original
