[jeremycherfas] Same on Day One. You can always go back and fill in a missing day.

capjamesg[d] streaks--
# capjamesg[d] [tantek] I agree with the streak pattern. It is too stressful to have yet another thing that you feel you have to do every day.

# capjamesg[d] My site is all in a GitHub repo so every time I like a web page a new commit is tracked.
# capjamesg[d] I exclude private contributions from my graph though.

daiyi[d] hi there! I'm restarting my personal indieweb odyssey
# daiyi[d] what's on my mind lately: last year I wrote a little lambda function (my site is static) that added commenting functionality to my blog. It basically made a pull request to my blog repository with the comment, super simple. the problem is that I got a lot of spam! I wanted to barrier to entry to be lower than auth, since I wanted to actually get comments, but I have to do so much spam control that it got overwhelming
# daiyi[d] I'm curious if anyone has run into this problem and has ideas on anti-spam measures. it's possible that in the end some kind of auth is necessary, but that seems too expensive for just wanting to receive nice notes on my blog posts (:

# [snarfed] daiyi spam is definitely a fact of life! the indieweb-forward approach is webmentions and https://indieweb.org/Vouch , but for traditional blog comments, try https://akismet.com/
