[KevinMarks] I like the anchor tag per day and page per month old design. Easy to maintain if you don't care about all the webmention and syndication stuff.

[jgmac1106] I'm curious if you've ever done a private multi-instance of WithKnown for a class?

here's a fun spam thing happening on twitter: 1. spammer blocks you. 2. spammer replies to one of your tweets. 3. because of #1 you are unable to see the reply. 4. because of #3, you are unable to report or hide the reply. 5. because of #4 spam reply remains under your tweet.

[chrisaldrich] yes but that was right when it lost autoupdates so experiment was short lived

@mblaney ihazawebsite is a reeally good multi-site collection. I have been keeping everything as simple as possible though. Just playing with HTML on glitch and doing everything in Teams

wow there is a lot of nonsense in those threads [KevinMarks]
#
[tantek]
LOTS of anti-patterns / common mistakes/misconceptions to document

ooof really poor S/N. might take a look at extracting some signal later in case it's improved later tonight

I mean Holly's question is a decent one, though I might question the very framing of "social media". It's the responses that show that we have a LOOOOONG way to go to raising a broader understanding of what works / doesn't work, and really good underscoring that "what people ask for" is more often (nearly) completely wrong and should be ignored (so cook for yourself first before you try to cook stuff for others that they ask for)
#
[KevinMarks]
I was interested in how many were "like this place I used to like" (including mine, tbh)
#
[tantek]
I think that's a daft answer because it assumes staticisim or worse privilege supporting status-quoism.

It's not enough to design a place that is "good" for the moment/day/year, it must be created with explicit knowledge that it will change & evolve over time, and with mechanisms & systems to do so more along positive pathways than negative ones.
#
[tantek]
All the "this place I used to like" systems evolved chaotically badly (or amplifying default dominant culture bad behaviors) because they failed to do this

Well, it's a starting point for "what was good about that place and time?" and how you separate that from the "Grail quest for the Eternal August"
[schmarty] and [fluffy] joined the channel
#
[tantek]
I really dislike the Eternal August / September framing because it's too associated with "old guard / old boys" Internet elitism/classism

[KevinMarks] it's difference between: "I liked this still life painting", and "I like this plant"
#
[tantek]
and people mistaking plants for still life
#
[tantek]
how's that for weaving in the gardening metaphor?

For a few weeks now I've been working on an introduction to building cloud systems for personal use. I just finished a post that outlines my main design idea-so-far: https://raphaelluckom.com/posts/practitioner_inn_000.html
