# Loqi ok, I added "“It wasn’t until Twitter made me feel especially glum – a mixture of diminishing highs and the criticism that accompanies being mildly prominent and wildly fallible – that I realised how totally I relied on it for my self-esteem.” https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2021/aug/04/a-moment-that-changed-me-i-realised-i-had-become-a-masochist-and-quit-twitter" to the "See Also" section of /silo-quits https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=76583&oldid=76433

hala-bala[m] What is the state of POSSE on Facebook and Instagram ?
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "state of POSSE on Facebook and Instagram" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "state of POSSE on Facebook and Instagram is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# hala-bala[m] Does it work currently and if so with what tools and what limitation ?
# Loqi Instagram is a popular photo and short video hosting silo most well known for square photos that have been processed with an image filter https://indieweb.org/Instagram
# hala-bala[m] I am following indieweb for a while and I know FB/Insta are doing everything they could against this, so I wanted more up to date yes/no and why / limitations.
# hala-bala[m] I will check it out, thanks @murr
# hala-bala[m] * I will check it out, thanks Murray[d]
# hala-bala[m] There is also https://github.com/dilame/instagram-private-api which I could integrate into my micropub if needed.
# hala-bala[m] I have been using it for a while without major issues.

petermolnar hala-bala[m]: regarding facebook, this is a good read: https://brid.gy/about#rip-facebook and for ig: https://brid.gy/about#silos
# petermolnar the repos like private-api are rather dangerous, although if one uses it for themself it *might* work. There's also a chance that IG will simply ban the account if/when they spot it.

[jacky] w.r.t https://indieauth.com; it's meant to become a informative site about indieauth in the future? if so, is it 'safe' to link to it if I wanted someone to learn more about it?
# [jacky] I'm thinking about linking here https://indieweb.org/IndieAuth#Why

# BinarySavior hi, i'm not sure where to ask this question, but i'm trying to develop a basic twitch app and i'm reading their API. It says to get an oauth token I need to send a GET request with some info, including a "space separated list of scopes"
# BinarySavior sure
