#
starrwulfe[m] He didn’t have to lump MySpace in the same category like that in the end 😆
#
starrwulfe[m] Everyone on myspace literally grew up and had to move out of their parents basement and get day jobs and couldn’t afford to be on there endlessly anymore!
#
starrwulfe[m] Quite different scenario from current avian place events
#
[tantek] indeed, MySpace was a well managed sunset as compared to the 🔥 we are witnessing

GWG Haven't posted a watch in ages. https://david.shanske.com/2023/01/16/6762/
#
GWG Needs style work

#
[chrisbergr] If I'd post all my YouTube-watches on my page, I'd have about 30 posts per day... Pretty good idea actually 😄
starrwulfe, mro and gRegor joined the channel
#
GWG [chrisbergr]: You could put them outside your main feed.
#
GWG Some people set them all to private
#
[chrisbergr] Yes, indeed. But for myself I don't see a benefit of saving all my watches on my site. Rather I'd post some explicit selected videos I'd like to remember. But this would be rather be a type bookmark or type like. Instead I'm looking for a solution of PESOS my comments made on youtube. But I guess I have to do it manualy.
#
sknebel took me a second to parse that you are not talking clocks :P
#
[chrisbergr] Oh, I see 😄
#
GWG sknebel: I look forward to your clock watch posts
#
Zegnat [chrisbergr]: if you find a good way to get YouTube watch data out, keep me informed :D

#
GWG Zegnat: I thought you had a line on that
[Murray] joined the channel
#
Zegnat I did a couple of tries, but nothing really stuck. The only thing I could get to somewhat work is parsing with a browser extension. But I use too many different machines for that to reliably work :(
#
GWG I'm sure you'll crack it someday
#
Zegnat All YouTube needs to do is add history back in the API. I already have a service that goes against that setup to sync YouTube subscriptions into my feed reader :)
#
[tantek] ^ more #indieweb-dev 🙂

capjamesg Breakfast and Coffee should now have support for adding images to a wiki page.
#
[tantek] amazing!
#
capjamesg If I ever open a cafe, I shall call it Breakfast and Coffee.
#
capjamesg (I wanted that on the record.)
#
[tantek] at least it will already have its own website
#
capjamesg Eek. Am I opening myself up to another IndieAuth IndieAuth issue?
#
capjamesg "Are you the website or the coffee shop?"

#
[tantek] I'd really like to view *only* someone’s original posts on their profile. I'm finding that A LOT of Masto profiles are mostly boosts
#
[tantek] and there's no options for it
#
aaronpk https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/21418
#
Loqi [preview] [hexagontruth] #21418 Ability to filter boosts and replies from profile feeds
#
[tantek] yeah one of the first things I’d want from a Social Reader that followed Masto feeds is the ability to mute reposts
#
aaronpk yup, I have that as a per-channel setting https://media.aaronpk.com/2023/01/16145918-6759.png
#
[tantek] amazing
#
[tantek] is that Monocle?
#
[tantek] also, why "Exclude" rather than "Mute:"
#
aaronpk aperture
#
aaronpk hmm, I think because I was thinking "mute" was for muting specific users
#
[snarfed] yes! twitter-atom (and *-atom) support this, it was a pretty common request. I think it's been requested on BF too
#
[tantek] aaronpk, on Twitter yes mute means "all posts", however on IG, "mute" means per post kind (posts, or stories)
#
[tantek] arlighty, let's see if a multi-reply works properly with an @-domain mention that just happens to match the person’s Twitter username
#
[tantek] hah yes! presentation is a bit wonky because Twitter 🙄 but yes it threaded! https://twitter.com/t/status/1615126788266676226
#
@t @dariusdunlap.com thanks for the kind words! Agreed that https://micro.blog/ is currently the best option for getting started with #IndieWeb / #fediverse, and for #TwitterMigration: https://indieweb.org/How_to_transition_from_Twitter https://tantek.com/t5Nt1 (twitter.com/_/status/1615126788266676226)
#
[tantek] ^ me taking advantage of Twitter’s auto-linker not supporting @-domain 😄
