exactly the kind of regular folks that you're talking about [Joe_Crawford]

There are still places for improvement though.

what is migration
#
Loqi
migration in the context of the indieweb refers to the process of moving your indieweb site from any one or more of one CMS / web host / DNS provider / URL design / domain name to another https://indieweb.org/migration

[Joe_Crawford]
I was curious enough to email him, sounds like he dodged this particular bullet:

[Joe_Crawford]: Do you get something better I wonder for $6/month than free?
#
[Joe_Crawford]
I have no dog in that hunt. I've considered going for that expiring free deal several times over the years but never committed. I'm glad to know my former brother-in-law won't be enduring pain because of the change.
#
GWG-
I just want to know what my enduring pain will be

(from me, this question is practically sacrilege) had anyone thought (or is doing) of using unicode chars/emojis as tags on their site?

petermolnar: I think aaronpk does that
#
[snarfed]
micro.blog does too

all emoji in my posts are clickable and you can see all posts that contain that emoji, so they effectively work the same as hashtags
#
[tantek]1
what is an emojitag
#
Loqi
Tagmoji is the use of a single emoji to categorize a piece of content https://indieweb.org/Emojitag
#
[tantek]1
aaronpk, can you fill in the ?? in https://indieweb.org/tagmoji#Aaron_Parecki 🙂

what are emojis as tags
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "emojis as tags" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "emojis as tags is ____", a sentence describing the term)

#
[tantek]1
curious though that the emoji version of the URL doesn't appear to be supported: https://micro.blog/discover/☕️
#
[tantek]1
^ [manton] deliberate or accident?
#
[tantek]1
just sayin' https://indieweb.org/☕️ 😄
#
Loqi
ok, I added "https://micro.blog/discover/coffee" to the "See Also" section of /coffee https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=79203&oldid=77840

^ good example of a first paragraph that is very IndieWeb without saying so
#
[tantek]1
tell me you’re thinking in an IndieWeb way without telling me you’re thinking in an IndieWeb way
#
aaronpk
i identify with the second paragraph 😅

[tantek] That page is in my feed reader 🙂
#
capjamesg[d]
Thanks for sharing!
#
capjamesg[d]
[tantek] I got around to making a /tip/ page on my site. So excited!
#
capjamesg[d]
I learned cash.app is available here in the UK too which is nice.

[tantek] I actually didn’t even think of supporting the emoji in the URL itself! I should make that work.
#
[manton]
I wish emoji domain names had taken off more, too. 🙂
#
[tantek]1
at least as a redirect 🙂
#
[tantek]1
(like we do on the IndieWeb wiki)
#
[manton]
Yeah, handling as a redirect should be straightforward. Thanks for mentioning it.
#
[tantek]1
yay!

Do pages like https://indieweb.org/☕️ mean that the IndieWeb wiki itself should be an example on tagmoji?
#
[tantek]1
that sounds like meta-work 😉
