nekr0z Is there an agreed upon way to mark up a translation of somebody's article? I've been meaning to translate some of the good old indieweb-related articles into Russian. They would obviously qualify to be `u-repost-of` (with a `hreflang` most likely), but is something like `u-translation-of` a thing?

# 
[KevinMarks] you can do `rel=alternate` with `hreflang` though ideally you want them to point that to you, and you can do `rel="alternate canonical"` to them
# [KevinMarks] given that we have a usecase in the wiki, it might be worth thinking about a translation-of markup
# [KevinMarks] eg https://indieweb.org/principles-de links to the `en` page it was translated from

jbove The layout of the "newsletters" thing also doesn't work too well on desktop. The scroll hi-jacking is definitely annoying on desktop. The whole thing reads much easier with the "reader view" of Firefox on. And yes, his remark on that websites are not easy to make is totally untrue, Going to check if Robin Rendle has heard of Homebrew Website Clubs.

[schmarty] aaronpk: hiiiii 👋
# [schmarty] i mostly post "makes" but all my things are also in there.
# [schmarty] that example does what you described and is a blog post with a link to the file (and some experimental mf2)
# [schmarty] whoops i meant this tag! https://martymcgui.re/tag/3dprinting/
# [schmarty] that one _also_ has all my makes and likes that i have exported from thingiverse
# [schmarty] for example https://martymcgui.re/2013/10/30/104417/

# [schmarty] that is an example of a more direct mapping from thingiverse's version of my thing into mf2 markup. i include the rendered 3d images for 3D files with the files but not in my gallery of images.

# btrem I'm trying to figure out a url scheme for articles on my site. I could use title/slug, but there's always the problem of titles changing. So I'm looking for some ideas, maybe a couple articles on urls schemes. Any recommendations?
# Loqi URL design is the practice of deliberately designing URLs, in particular, permalinks, typically for a better UX for everyone who creates, reads, and shares content https://indieweb.org/URL_design
# btrem That looks helpful, thanks. I might ask you some questions when I'm done reading.
# btrem The problem I'm having is creating flexible urls in a static site. In the past, I've used a database and php to deal with cases where a page title changes. I don't have that now. So I feel a bit more constrained.
# btrem I could skip the slug/title part and just use date. That would avoid the problem of changing titles. But I just know that there will come a day when I post twice.
# btrem I'm not asking for scripting solutions. Explicitly. But ok, I'll stop.
# btrem Ok, thanks.
# btrem Neat trick: I can click a channel link here and go immediately to the other channel, even though I didn't have that channel open. Cool.
