#
petermolnar huh. Can someone please try to load any https://plus.google.com/ posts on archive.org?
#
sknebel looking pretty empty, need readermode to see text?
schmudde joined the channel
#
petermolnar I honestly wonder if that is by google+ design, breaking google+ posts on archive.org :(
#
capjamesg[d] [tantek] What would be the distinguishing feature between Breakfast and Coffee and Foursquare? The structure of the taxonomy? I'd like to build something but don't want to get too in the weeds haha.
gRegor and n8chz joined the channel
#
capjamesg[d] [tantek] Also, do you have any thoughts on UX? I envision a home page with a list of recent posts and pages for filtering by tag / location.
#
capjamesg[d] A tag cloud might be a good starter (a la IndieWeb Events) but would need refinement later.

#
[tantek] capjamesg[d] UX thoughts: coarse hexes map view with a count in each hex (light blue hex for your present location), maybe a tag cloud on the side to refine

#
[jacky] might see some traffic b/c of mentions of the IndieWeb from https://blueskyweb.org/satellite
#
edgeduchess[d] is it me or does this sound... condescending?
#
edgeduchess[d] > They weren't as original and decentralized as the winning submissions that had implementations that did not require platform-level support,
#
[tantek] Unfortunate aspect of ambiguous tone in text, it could be interpreted as condescending yes, or "merely" brief.
#
[jacky] Yeah, I think the ordering of that bit could have avoided that
#
edgeduchess[d] it doesn't mention anything similar for other solutions
#
edgeduchess[d] so it sounds to me like a "this isn't blockchain so whatever but i guess it might work"
#
edgeduchess[d] but that was just the feeling i got, and i'm kind of in a bad mood cause i joined the blue sky discord and they're talking about data portability in terms of chain interoperability and i'm mad
#
[jacky] oh that's definitely something to stomach in that room
#
stevestreza if it doesn't squeeze onto a blockchain somehow it is literally invisible to those folks
#
Loqi edgeduchess[d], stevestreza: that's a lot of dev jargon! blockchain... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
[jacky] I've avoided all of the channels sans the #identity one b/c that's the one that's the most relevant to me
#
edgeduchess[d] yeah I was hoping this wouldn't be the case when I joined, but silly me
#
[tantek] yep let's take the blockchain ranting to #indieweb-dev at a minimum to make this channel more welcoming to real world user-focused practical indieweb stuff 🙂
#
[tantek] (I don't disagree with the rants tho)
#
[tantek] anyone else notice the AWS outage today or just WaPo? https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2021/12/22/amazon-web-services-experiences-another-big-outage/
