ok, I added "Example: {{jgarber}} has an Elsewhere section near the bottom of his homepage https://sixtwothree.org" to the "See Also" section of /identity-elsewhere https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=84214&oldid=84211

Some of those profiles are _pretty_ dusty.
#
[tantek]1
yeah mine were too, I did a reset of mine

[jgarber]
The ol’ sixtwothree-dot-org is _pretty_ dusty, too. :melting_face:

on https://seirdy.one/ I keep it really small in a "contact" section on the homepage, and I'm more exhaustive in my dedicated "about" page. Felt that putting absolutely everything right on the home page would be too much of an infodump for newcomers.

<jacky> Seirdy: I agree. I moved mine to my about page
#
Seirdy
i also put a bunch of others in my keyoxide-compatible pubkey
#
Seirdy
i think what i'll do is put a <details> element on my about page for "even more profiles" and make that exhaustive. the goal will be "if it's not on this list, it's an imposter"

Matt Mullenweg tweets out Tumblrs latest stats - about 1/10th the monthly active users as Twitter right now:

@photomatt
Tumblr has about 1/10th the MAUs as Twitter, the team used to be 1/37th the size, now it's about 1/17th the size. Unfortunately it makes 1/238th the revenue! We have a long way to go, especially per-user.

[Dr. Casey Fiesler] This is a recreation of a Twitter thread of my response to someone who said re: scientists moving to Mastodon: "Leaving the global community to enter a silo makes no sense."I think this represents a common misconception about Mastodon! The entire poi...

Need some advice on how I can better style this page? https://wpdev.gwg.us/venue/laguardia-airport-lga/
#
GWG
Not low level advice...what would be interesting on it?
#
aaronpk
a list of all the times you've checked in?
#
GWG
That is planned
#
GWG
For now, I just want to get the usage working right so I can deploy it to production.

GWG
Trying to figure out what is minimally required

GWG: some alt-text

GWG
Seirdy: How about some text period?
#
Seirdy
someone who isn't familiar with the indieweb wouldn't know what they're looking at. is this a page about an airport?
#
Seirdy
say something like the timestamp, and "checked into LGA"
#
Seirdy
maybe "en route to" or "arriving from"
#
Seirdy
and optionally an editorial blurb. "excited for my trip!"
#
GWG
Seirdy: That isn't a check-in, that's what I checked into

This is the test import from https://wpdev.gwg.us/2022/03/15/27343/

<tracydurnell> A photo of the venue if you have one?
#
GWG
I have the provision for that in future.

Also a canonical URL or alternative URLs
