[0x3b0b] I had only really started using Twitter for much in very recent history, so I didn't really rely on it for anything, and now almost all I do with it is click through from the emails they send me (which I haven't bothered to turn off yet) to see what was funny about a retweet if it's from one of two specific people, or go to one of those two people's profiles occasionally to see whether his Twitch stream is late or canceled. I did, however,

[0x3b0b] get my home timeline loading in Unicyclic, which I keep forgetting I did.

IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> I would like to have a currently page like that.
#
[tantek] What is now?
#
Loqi A now page is a page that tells you what a person is focused on at this point in their life https://indieweb.org/Now

t0nic Just chiming in to say that I've had my blog indiewebbed for a while now and it's been great
#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> I like the format of what localghost described.
#
t0nic It's really turned my blog into a tool I use to interface with the internet, beyond just writing things

#
[tantek] what is testimonials
#
Loqi testimonials are quotes from people stating how they are inspired by the IndieWeb, or otherwise find IndieWeb technologies and the community an interesting, productive, and welcoming place (per code-of-conduct) https://indieweb.org/testimonials
#
[tantek] t0nic++ that's a good summary of how an IndieWeb site can be useful beyond blogging: "a tool I use to interface with the internet, beyond just writing things" — want to add that to the testimonials page ^ ?

ross[m] loving all this inspiration - feeling free to communicate it beyond secret editors and localised tools - and with low friction via fantastic indieweb tools is so much fun
#
[aciccarello] "Reading: The internet" is great evergreen content 😆
#
[aciccarello] Any reason you chose /currently over /now? now seems more common.
#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> I liked the phase Currently in localghost’s post.
#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> /now feels like it comes with more expectation.
#
[aciccarello] Interesting, fair enough

capjamesg "All paid/permanent users now have 50 MB of disk space on our servers for PhonePosts, userpics and other upcoming features requiring file storage. Text journal entries do not count against this."
#
capjamesg "This isn't available yet, but soon paid members will be able to check their friends pages via POP3. That's right: you'll just have to add LiveJournal as an incoming mail server in your mail client, and let it check for friends updates in the background. All the details aren't worked out, but it's looking good so far."
