[tantek]1 I've decided to nearly always set "People @t follows or mentioned can reply" on my POSSE tweets because the rando spam replies are getting too annoying to bother hiding/reporting/blocking
#
[tantek]1 e.g. see logged-out view of https://twitter.com/t/status/1587351689446948866
#
@t registered to run #baytobreakers 2023-05-21! Join me in corral A: https://baytobreakers.com/ @baytobreakers said $39.99, added $3.60 for “Booking Fee”, less than last year’s $5.95 for “Handling”, yet still a required extra charge. Previously: https://tantek.com/t5Mc1 (twitter.com/_/status/1587351689446948866)
#
[tantek]1 the replies there are 100% noise
#
[tantek]1 consequence: I may start following people on Twitter purely as an allow-list for replies
#
[tantek]1 (and typically mute by default, then unmute if I actually want to use the reader stream at all)
#
[snarfed] huh confusing, I see "People @t follows or mentioned can reply" on that tweet, but it has NFT spam replies

#
[tantek]1 snarfed, I changed the permissions after the spam replies were posted 😕
#
[tantek]1 you can manually change the permissions on any tweet in terms of who can reply
#
[tantek]1 you can't retroactively remove replies that are outside of the new permissions. you can "hide" them but that only works on the logged in view. the logged-out view still shows all of them
#
[tantek]1 "free speech" for NFT spam I suppose 😛
#
[snarfed] oh interesting retroactive, ok
#
[tantek]1 for anything remotely "controversial" I think I will lock down replies to those I follow immediately, and for anything else, I think I will lock down replies ~48hrs after posting (which would have been enough to block the noise on that one tweet at least)

#
[snarfed] Also begs the equation of the indieweb equivalent for moderating wms
#
[tantek]1 we've discussed allow lists before as the indieweb equivalent as well
#
[tantek]1 (without mentioning or depending on any protocols)
#
[snarfed] Right! Site-internal. And the equivalent here of basing the allowlist on following + mentioned, per post
#
[snarfed] (at least, one of many options there)
#
[tantek]1 right, though I think it's worth making that dynamic and cumulative. and that sounds like a dev strategy so I'll take that there

#
ishehadeh[m] Anyone have any recommendations for testing my websites performance?
#
[tantek]1 what is performance
#
Loqi Performance typically refers to the speed, responsiveness, and initial load of a website; performance may also refer to the post type, performance https://indieweb.org/performance
#
[tantek]1 ^ try the tools there ishehadeh[m]
#
ishehadeh[m] Thanks!

[Jamie_Tanna] Anyone know how to allow Bridgy Fed to allow follows? https://twitter.com/Marcus_Noble_/status/1589546832098742273 and https://twitter.com/Tymscar/status/1589550831036403713
#
@Marcus_Noble_ @JamieTanna @Tymscar @schnarfed I don't because my follow is still waiting on your approval. (twitter.com/_/status/1589546832098742273)

Loqi [fuuma] Make the net weird again. Hand write sites like it’s the 90s. Pick interesting domain names and make fan sites or random knowledge known to everyone. Don’t monetize anything. Spearhead new protocols like Gemini. Make mods for games on your site. ...
#
petermolnar > Don’t monetize anything. - yep.

#
[snarfed] [Jamie_Tanna] it does automatically. We are seeing that a small fraction of Madison instances are having trouble verifying signatures though, this might be that, I can look
#
[Jamie_Tanna] Oh interesting, thanks snarfed. I've just retried a follow to https://indieweb.social/web/@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me which shows as a follow request pending, still. Lemme know if there's anything I can do to help! (as well as probably move into #indieweb-dev)

[Dinis_Correia] Hi everyone! I’m trying to publish blog post to Mastodon/Twitter using Bridgy using webmentions (with the WP webmantion plugin) but I’m missing something in the process. Can’t really seem to figure out how to send the webmention when something is posted 😕
#
[timothy_chambe] A very good point that speaks to #indieweb and #openweb principals:
#
[timothy_chambe] https://indieweb.social/web/@anildash@mastodon.cloud/109299994055508720
#
Loqi [anildash 🤪] When it came time to reckon with social media’s failings, nobody ran to the “web3” platforms. Nobody asked “can I get paid per message”? Nobody asked about the blockchain. The community of people who’ve been quietly doing this work for ye...

[schmarty]1 [Dinis_Correia] there are folks in the #indieweb-wordpress channel that can likely help!

#
Zagura[m] Is is considered good practice to have an h-card in a sub-page, like example.com/about, but put a link in the main page (example.com) with the `h-card` class?
#
Zagura[m] I see an example in the official wiki, but im not sure if that means that the parsers will load the content of the link & extract the h-card from there, or just see an h-card with a single url
#
Loqi friendly reminder Zagura[m], that's a lot of dev jargon! Microformats... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
Zagura[m] sorry

[timothy_chambe] Super important Tweet for #indieweb and ActivityPub supporters to chime in on from Matt Mullenweg https://twitter.com/photomatt/status/1589665959337656322?s=46&t=PqdYb_zkzUzYVnlDNNS5MQ

@photomatt How should @Tumblr integrate with Mastodon and/or @bluesky ? (twitter.com/_/status/1589665959337656322)
