[snarfed] new https://fed.brid.gy/ home page UI is up!
#
[snarfed] [tantek]++ for the ideas
#
Loqi [tantek] has 14 karma in this channel over the last year (77 in all channels)
#
[snarfed] still needs hover text and probably different icons besides just Mastodon, but it's a start
#
[tantek] snarfed++ amazing!!! and I can't believe the emoji one-liner diagrams here in chat were enough to inspire that 😂
#
Loqi snarfed has 25 karma in this channel over the last year (72 in all channels)
#
[tantek] snarfed, for the one-liner at the bottom, both of those seem to present people with much more reading and harder decisions, I wonder if that could be simplified
#
[tantek] or rather, if they've actually found their way to Bridgy Fed, presumably they have some idea already that they want to do participate in/with fediverse/mastodon
#
[tantek] instead of "... or learn about ..." :
#
[tantek] "... or create an account on micro.blog(link) or indieweb.social(link) to try out the fediverse first."
#
[snarfed] Sure!
#
[tantek] that provides viewers a much more actionable path, and a nice nudge towards services which have admins active here in the chat that can provide further guidance/community to new folks, for hopefully a friendlier onboarding
#
[tantek] ah a third link to chat might be good too
#
[tantek] dev in particular, since Bridgy Fed/Publish is still very dev-like
#
[snarfed] Good ideas
#
barnaby very nice work [snarfed]++

[timothy_chambe] ↩️ Just posted on that here: https://indieweb.social/@tchambers/109374703563569354

Loqi [Tim Chambers] Very cool: "#Bridgy Fed connects your web site to Mastodon and the fediverse....Bridgy Fed lets you interact with federated social networks like Mastodon and Hubzilla from your IndieWeb site. It translates posts, replies, likes, reposts, and follows ...

#
ash[m] Has anyone tried building their indieweb site on Glitch.com ? It feels like it would be pretty good for that and then others could remix it?
#
IWDiscordRelay <j​acky#7226> I have yet to try but _technically_ it's possible
#
IWDiscordRelay <j​acky#7226> https://anildash.com/ is hosted on Glitch (so that gives me reason enough to believe it's possible)
#
[tantek] ash[m] see https://indieweb.org/Glitch#IndieWeb_Examples — though for any "building" questions, #indieweb-dev is a better place for questions
#
[KevinMarks] I had a go a while back, but was a bit stumped with persistence https://it-me-web.glitch.me/
#
[snarfed] [manton] welcome!
#
[snarfed] there's also actual onboarding now too, you type in your web site and it checks that you have the redirects and h-card working

[tantek] [KevinMarks] is it time for an update to your influential articles about the fragility of embedding tweets?
