[chrisaldrich] !tell cambridgeport90[ Saw your note about running ActivityPub. I've been hearing good things about Darius Kazemi's lightweight fork of Mastodon for smaller communities. I haven't tried it myself yet, but maybe something worth looking at? https://github.com/hometown-fork/hometown/wiki
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

cambridgeport90[ <[chrisaldrich]> "!tell cambridgeport90 Saw your..." <- That looks pretty awesome, actually; the issue with a lot of ActivityPub instances, though, is they simply do as the Mastodonians do, and only support what the larger piece of the puzzle supports. We have people like Darius to thank for reminding us that it's not a monoculture, where with Mastodon getting as big for its britches as it is right now, could happen without people
#
cambridgeport90[ even realizing it.

Loqi hey jbove, that's a lot of dev jargon! Microformats... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
jbove Sorry Loqi

#
GWG Fancy.
#
GWG Which room will be recorded?
#
GWG Do we want to stop the Zoom in the main room?
#
GWG Okay, just tell me where I might or might not hop into session wise.
#
GWG And any host can start the recording. I'll go through and get the recordings later.
#

#
zinzy Hey everyone
#
[tantek] welcome zinzy!
#
zinzy Hey Tantek! N00b question: how do I get my username to work as a chat-name that I can use on the IWC page?
#
[tantek] what is a sparkline?
#
Loqi A sparkline is a small, simple, data-dense graphic with typographic resolution that is shown inline and in-context with relevant text https://indieweb.org/sparkline
#
sknebel zinzy: https://indieweb.org/Template:sparkline#How_to_make_a_small_h-card_template
#
GWG I don't think the IndieAuth room can hear me
#
[tantek] GWG you appear to be muted in the zoom break out room
#
[tantek] "GWG"
#
GWG I unmuted, and said something.
#
GWG But not heard.
#
GWG Was not sure if the volume on Calum's pad is high enough.
#
[tantek] GWG we have the Jabra speaker/mic hooked up to the iPad, and we just verified it with Zinzy
#
GWG Odd. Maybe it is my low voice.
#
[tantek] GWG your voice did sound a bit distant in the main room
#
[tantek] you may be speaking at too low a volume for the Jabra to make a sound
#
[tantek] I think the Jabra limits low volume things
#
GWG I'll go get something to lubricate it. Like a drink.

[tantek] Yay welcome to chat [zinzy] !

Loqi 😊
#
[tantek] Great to have you remote participating in the IWC sessions today!
#
[zinzy] ↩️ Thanks for the welcome [gRegorLove] and [tantek], it was wondering hearing all the stories today! I’m so pleased to see what a warm and helpful community you are. I'm excited to join in person some time in the future. How does one connect their IndieWeb profile to their Slack account? 🤔
#
gRegor I don't think we have a URL field in the Slack profile. Our chat logs use /chat-names to show your photo and link to your site, so it looks like you're already set there
#
[zinzy] ↩️ Oh perfect, thanks
