jamietanna[m] Morning IndieWeb! Given the changes to Hacktoberfest, what are the thoughts about whether we'll opt our repos in? I've got a few contributions I wanted to do, but given it requires a bit more from maintainers I want to make sure that you're happy me doing them this month

Zegnat You need to opt in now? I am divided on the whole event and have personally never participated in it. But definitely worth discussing. Maybe an #indieweb-meta topic?
opal, supercoven, rmdes and jamietanna joined the channel
#
jamietanna Yes, they changed it officially last night (UK time) so maintainers aren't as horribly burdened by 1000s of PRs they don't want
#
jamietanna And sounds like a plan -> #indieweb-meta

#
[schmarty] thanks aaronpk! it's been in my head for so long. and like so many ownyourdata projects it is a real mess in places!
#
[schmarty] i definitely feel like i identified an appletv app worth building, though!
#
[schmarty] err "tvOS"
#
sknebel video-focussed feed reader?
#
[schmarty] sknebel: yep!
#
Zegnat This is pretty close to what I do. I subscribe on YouTube because I understand subscriber numbers can be important to creators. Then I put the feed of all my subscriptions into my feed reader and only watch from there :D

jamietanna[m] Had anyone watched The Great Hack? Some interesting things in there, and a bit better than The Social Dilemma

vilhalmer I would absolutely love a video reader for the tv, the youtube app is just bad in addition to being creepy
