jacky more of an etiquette question; do people tend to send links from their site to https://archive.org? I've been considering sending one for anything I reply to (not necessarily to every link)
#
jacky I'd also add an affordance to view the archived link
#
jacky there's an API to check if a page has been archived at https://archive.org/help/wayback_api.php so I figure I could check first and then show said link (so it's done consentually)

jacky (the consent being implied that if it's archived already then it's okay to link it - a direct link could trigger an archive and I'd want to not be the direct link causing that, lol)
#
GWG I'm trying to figure out what is holding me back from putting my new bookmark system into production for myself. I'm worried about a 40,000 link import.
#
GWG How do you know when something is 'done'?
#
barnaby jacky: my site maintains an internal HTML-only archive of everything I link to, so I didn’t yet see any need to make use if archive.org. it’d definitely be a cool feature though
#
barnaby (cue Loqi dev warning in 3, 2, 1…)
#
jacky heh
#
jacky yeah I think I might file it as a nice-to-have for now

[snarfed] GWG: "Art is never finished, only abandoned." - Leonardo da Vinci
mro joined the channel
#
GWG [snarfed]: Okay, done as in ready for my use, not forever done3
#
[snarfed] "ready for my use" sounds like an answer then!

#
GWG [snarfed]: I guess should just finish that backup function just in case it all goes horribly wrong

Loqi [indienews] New post: "Django With Barcode and Qrcode" https://fundor333.com/post/2022/django-with-barcode-and-qrcode/
#
[jgmac1106] [jacky] I do across all my sites, didn't think about trying to exclude replies if they link to othe's content

#
[tantek] jacky, I send every link to archive org that I attempt to do webmention discovery on. since I'm not caching the link destinations myself (like barnaby), I want to archive stuff as of the moment that I'm publishing a link to it, so if need be in the future I can update my direct link to that archive org link knowing its represents the content as of the time I linked it
#
[tantek] gives Loqi an expectant look
#
Loqi Thanks, [tantek]!
#
[tantek] 😄
