aaronpk I just noticed a really interesting feature of YouTube. When you're looking at the comments on a video, tapping on the profile photo of someone who commented loads up a little preview of their profile in the context of the channel the comment is on
#
aaronpk so it says the number of comments they have left on that channel and the number of likes their comments have gotten on the channel
#
aaronpk Looks like an interesting indicator of accounts that may be trolls or not acting in good faith
#
Ruxton aaronpk: in what? desktop brower? youtube app on mobile? just tired it as I'd never noticed it before and nope

[snarfed] jamietanna: it’s the green A on https://indieauth.com/
#
[snarfed] another version: https://brid.gy/oauth_dropins/static/indieauth_logo.png
[tantek] joined the channel
#
aaronpk it's debatable whether that's the logo for indieauth.com or the spec itself :) personally I'd like a better logo for the spec
#
aaronpk my logo design skills are... marginal
#
GWG aaronpk: We need a logo designer to do logos for all the specs
#
[snarfed] heh quality is a whole other question
#
jamietanna[m] Micropub.rocks has a good one
kensp and djmoch joined the channel
#
jacky tbh I'd donate for a fund to do that
#
jacky people really underestimate the power of a decent logo
[antonio], [Emma_Humphries], uncle_0gre and Simounet joined the channel
#
[tantek] it's made a big difference IMO with microformats over the years
#
[tantek] and yes that logo was professionally designed and paid for by a corporate sponsorship at the time
#
[tantek] moving the spec convo to #indieweb-dev

#
[KevinMarks] both iterations of the indieweb logo have been great but we seem to use the cheesy mock 80s one I made as joke more now
kensp joined the channel
#
[tantek] nah that's HWC, totally different 😉
avalos joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] I did make mutant HWC logos too http://svgur.com/s/o though an actual designer would be a better idea
#
Loqi HWC logo no text http://svgur.com/i/o.svg
#
[KevinMarks] I liked this one too https://farm4.static.flickr.com/3216/2836380076_4082a2b595_o.jpg

[KevinMarks] Thanks Cindy https://www.flickr.com/photos/cindyli/2836380076 (it also solves the "I only see 3 mats" objection)

[KevinMarks] on another note https://twitter.com/NewYorkStateAG/status/1336755231946846208
#
@NewYorkStateAG #BREAKING: I'm leading a bipartisan coalition of 48 attorneys general in a lawsuit against @Facebook to end its illegal monopoly. We are taking action to stand up for the millions of consumers and many small businesses that have been harmed by Facebook’s illegal behavior. (twitter.com/_/status/1336755231946846208)
#
[KevinMarks] that's the POSSE announcement, original https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2020/attorney-general-james-leads-multistate-lawsuit-seeking-end-facebooks-illegal
#
[KevinMarks] Can snarfed testify? “Facebook has used an “open first–closed later” strategy to stop competitive threats, or deter them from competing, at the inception.”
#
[KevinMarks] “After years of promoting open access to its platform, in 2011, Facebook began to rescind and block access to the site to apps that Facebook viewed as actual or potential competitive threats. Facebook understands that an abrupt termination of established access to the site can be devastating to an app — especially one still relatively new to the market. An app that suddenly loses access to Facebook is hurt not only because its users can no

[KevinMarks] longer bring their friend lists to the new app, but also because a sudden loss of functionality — which creates broken or buggy features — suggests to users that an app is unstable. In the past, some of these companies experienced almost overnight drop-off in user engagement and downloads, and their growth stalled.”

[chrisaldrich] I'd contribute to a logo designer fund too.

#
@AOC Good. Facebook is absolutely an out-of-control monopoly - one that has abused its market power to squash competition, manipulate democracies, and crush journalism. Thank you @TishJames for leading the way. (Maybe when Instagram spins off they can change the bottom tabs back😉) https://twitter.com/alexsalvinews/status/1336759250459082752 (twitter.com/_/status/1336776794737946626)

#
[Raphael_Luckom] I'd be interested to know which two AGs declined to be part of that suit
#
skalnik Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and South Dakota
#
jacky sebbu: I've been meaning to do that tbh
#
sebbu it's very easy
#
sebbu (especially if you just need a static WKD, and not that listing/add/delete features)
#
sebbu you can do it in a couple minutes
#
sebbu now i'm thinking whether i should add cert / pka / dane=openpgpkey dns records
