I'm seeing little chiclet labels like ( 🌶 Hot take ) between an author name and a tweet on Twitter, is anyone else seeing these?
#
barnaby
like the “<3 by author” one they added recently? that’s the only one I’ve seen in the wild
#
[snarfed]
Yeah they launched that a while ago
#
[tantek]1
I wonder what makes something a "hot take" like are they actually doing sentiment analysis?
#
[tantek]1
ok I just saw ( 🏆 Winning) also

Weee
#
[tantek]1
interesting, is that a "logical" venue that shifts as you shift homes?
#
GWG
[tantek]1: I have lived here for more than 20 years. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it
#
GWG
I can always change the label.
#
GWG
I have more I want to do with it. But it was important I got something storing data before I left to make some data on..what did you call it, the 'best' coast?
#
[tantek]1
Swarm has the ability to update / move venues, or even close them
#
GWG
[tantek]1: Baby steps?
#
[tantek]1
GWG, it's an interesting challenge being able to update venues and yet no modify/screwup checkins to them in the past
#
GWG
[tantek]1: I haven't had the challenge yet.
#
GWG
I probably will when I start converting old checkins and creating venues for them.
#
GWG
I have several hundred checkins to deal with
#
GWG
And yes, I know it pales in comparison
#
GWG
You have over several orders of magnitude above that
#
GWG
Of course, if I had more, migrating them would be much harder
#
[tantek]1
yo dawg, I hear you like status updates

[tantek]1
presumably for Blue users tho
#
AramZ-S[m]
Seems like he is trying to stick everything in blue
#
AramZ-S[m]
Sort of breaks the model of why people use Twitter to begin with
#
[snarfed]
The ad funded model, yes
#
AramZ-S[m]
Not really. Twitter works because of the format I mean the notes inline are not particularly twitter like
#
AramZ-S[m]
if you take what makes Twitter unique and turn it into everything else... what use is it?
#
[snarfed]
Ah ok sure
#
[snarfed]
I do have to admit though, we've complained about the bad incentives of ads funding social media for so long, I kind of love that someone's making a go of directly charging users in a major silo
#
[snarfed]
(granted though, everything else they're doing seems like a mess)

Any #activitypub developers, this looks like a key open source effort to help….
#
@davewiner
Developers only. Do you know enough about ActivityPub to help document it? I'll write the docs. I'm good at it. I'll ask the questions to get the info from you. I want to put up a simple chat app on the AP network. Open source of course. Node.js. https://github.com/scripting/reallySimpleActivityPub

#
[snarfed]
except AP isn't a chat protocol
#
aaronpk
also solidly #indieweb-dev
#
[timothy_chambe]
Thanks - you'd think I'd get the hang of what should be news versus what should be #indieweb-dev by now. Will be careful about that, thanks...

i still think the exodus will be smaller than most people make it out to be, just like the last few times mastodon got trending
#
AramZ-S[m]
bigger this time around than last for sure
#
AramZ-S[m]
Interesting... isn't Tumblr allowing NSFW stuff now

[tw2113_Slack_]
