Ruxton schmarty: I dunno if its gotten better but there were a lot of timing issues in FF and Chrome 5 or so years ago
#
Ruxton oops wrong chan
KempfCreative joined the channel
#
BrittSSLLC I have more of a faceless but still directed independent-type site
#
BrittSSLLC more directed as a set of categories in which to specialize
#
BrittSSLLC Does anyone else here work towards that and describe it as indieweb?

#
doosboox [KevinMarks]: what’s Nuzzle?
#
[KevinMarks] Nuzzel is a site/app that you log into with twitter and it gives you a feed of news articles shared by people you follow to read

#
[chrisaldrich] BrittSSLLC those are definitely indie. Perhaps they're best described as a /directory? What other names would we give these?
BrittSSLLC joined the channel
#
BrittSSLLC I guess if there was a need for differentiation, that could be a way
#
BrittSSLLC I was verifying my website can be relevant to discussions in here
#
BrittSSLLC I like all helpful forms of communication
#
BrittSSLLC .. among other rights
#
BrittSSLLC I'm obviously not as current with some of the internet-related slang. "indieweb" was kind of new to me
BrittSSLLC and [KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich] Perhaps a lot of the old school sites that specialized in topic/categories might also fall under /use_case#IndieWeb_for_hobbies

BrittSSLLC [chrisaldrich] That's true. I haven't followed the status of independent informational websites. I know there were a lot as pages in directories on webhosts

[snarfed] thanks BrittSSLLC!
Rattroupe, shoesNsocks1, kensp1, KartikPrabhu and bdeshi joined the channel
#
[snarfed] FYI all, pour one out for https://baffle.tech/, no one really uses it so i’m planning to turn it down soon
#
[snarfed] it was fun to build though, and fun to contribute to the microsub discussion a few years ago when activity around that was hot!
#
aaronpk I feel bad we haven't kept the momentum up on that!
#
[snarfed] eh microsub may be quieter because it’s stable, not because it’s unused
#
Loqi [snarfed]: can you move the tech talk to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
[snarfed] 🤷
#
aaronpk I still use my IndieWeb reader every day and it's working great, but there haven't been that many more readers popping up like I had hoped!
#
[snarfed] it’s a substantial thing to build, probably reasonable that there aren’t a ton
#
aaronpk True
