What is Archivy?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Archivy" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Archivy is ____", a sentence describing the term)

This appears to be a decent Indieweb-compatible app:

Just saw this @GWG! Long time no see, indeed! Life continues to be a bit intense, keeping me away from anything but work and family :/
#
GWG
[cleverdevil]: Hope things get less intense soon
#
[cleverdevil]
Here here!
#
[cleverdevil]
I just hired another VP to help shoulder the load a bit at work. I’m hopeful that things will get a bit more smooth as a result :)
#
[cleverdevil]
How are things for you?

Any projects going on today?
#
sebsel
I've been working on a rewrite of my site, but this is the fourth day and I think I'll start over again.
#
sebsel
I can't seem to come past that point where I think I should stuck with the route I'm taking.
#
sebsel
But yes, that's the project for me for the last week of 2020 :)

Hello! I’m finishing up some re-styling that I’ve been doing since last week : )
#
Zegnat
I am going to continue with my YouTube thing, trying to replace the subscription exports that I am depending on

And [Ana_Rodrigues]
#
jeremycherfas
I'm busy moving all the changes that made my minimum viable project work yesterday afternoon over into the complete site, and then push to production.
#
jeremycherfas
At least, that's the plan.

[Zegnat] re: any projects--yesterday I wrote a kind of ethnographic hypothesis of diagramming within software ( https://raphaelluckom.com/posts/diagrams_000.html ) , hoping to turn it into a discussion of domain-specific languages as a way to discuss software structures with non-practitioners.

Zegnat have you looked at invidious for YouTube? I run my own instance and manage my subscriptions there
ShadowKyogre left the channel
#
Zegnat
I find it important to subscribe to channels that I like on the platform they exist one (ie. YouTube) as that helps those channels grow and stay in existence. As long as I am subscribing on YouTube, I want a way to export that to my reader easily rather than manage my subscriptions in two places.
#
Zegnat
Previously YouTube had a button to download an OPML file, that gave me what I wanted. Now that is gone :(

Yea I manually re-subscribed on invidious, then I can export it.

Another idea for renaming Indigenous: how about Ingenious?

#
aaronpk
thanks [snarfed]!
#
GWG
[tantek]: That's an Ingenious idea for Indigenous
#
GWG
aaronpk: In that vein, thanks for being a SPOA

GWG
I'll just appreciate all the things that you do

I got my website backend deployed last night, so I can receive comments without disqus now

[plenglin]
During deployment, I had issues setting up SSL and I kept hitting the letsencrypt rate limit. It turned out it was all because I forgot to open ports 80 and 443 on the machine...

I read Tim Berners-Lee's article "Cool URIs don't change", and it got me thinking about post-types. Taxonomies change, people reorganize, etc. How do you separate post types visually, while keeping them together structurally?
#
BinyaminGreen[m]
For reference: https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI.html
[snarfed] joined the channel
#
[snarfed]
fortunately, URIs are separate from both visual design and internal data structure and storage. you don’t need to tie them together at all
#
[snarfed]
also, you can use redirects to keep old URLS working!
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
BinyaminGreen[m]
True. So if you put both photos and notes under "/posts", how do you link to just the latest photos? I guess you could use "/posts/tag/photos" or something, but that's a bit long
#
Zegnat
I am not sure I have seen anyone have "latest post of type ..." URLs, those do sound interesting
#
[plenglin]
Maybe you could do something like /posts/photos/latest
#
BinyaminGreen[m]
I meant a category page.
#
[plenglin]
Oh
#
[plenglin]
Maybe instead of "tag," use a single character like /posts/c/photos
#
[plenglin]
where c is category
#
[snarfed]
also check out a few example indieweb community members’ sites for examples, eg https://aaronparecki.com/ , https://tantek.com/ , https://werd.io/ , http://www.kevinmarks.com/ , https://david.shanske.com/
