j12t Three of us (Kaliya Young aka identitywoman, Jennifer Holmes and myself) are organizing a new online unconference end of March called FediForum. It focuses on post-Twitter social media and the fediverse. FYI to you IndieWeb folks because the topic is so close. https://fediforum.org/
#
j12t (Not currently mentioning IndieWeb in the description because traditionally the IndieWeb has had its own events. Not trying to stop on anybody's toes ... but it would be great to have IndieWeb people and topics, too.)

[tantek] j12t, curious if you particpiated in DecentSocial which was a similar "online unconference" on pretty much the same topic(s) and what you thought of it? and if not, perhaps look into that to see how it went and what could be learned from that experience?

j12t Yes, I was at DecentSocial, which was a nice event. Our format is going to be a bit different, e.g. we're going to have a software demo track (e.g. Ryan said he would demo Bridgy Fed) and we are attempting to host specific conversations that we've heard need to happen to move the fediverse forward.
#
j12t E.g. in particular industries.

[tantek] Also you would not be stepping on anyone's toes IMO at least to mention it welcome IndieWeb topics. There's a lot of crossover across different communities and I think it's better to err on the side of inclusion than try to have any kind of firm boundaries
#
[tantek] to mention or* welcome IndieWeb topics
#
[tantek] There are lots of conversations that need to happen and I'm glad you're facilitating events to help make them happen j12t++

#
[tantek] ^ btw if anyone wants to offer their own opinions / nuances on that, please do. That's just my one opinion :)
#
aaronpk i agree! it'd only be a problem if the event were *called* IndieWebCamp or IndieWeb-whatever, then it would be weird to not coordinate more closely here
j12t joined the channel
#
[tantek] yeah that's a reasonable distinction, if you want to call something an IndieWebCamp, it would be weird to not coordinate here, but then again, someone could just take the instructions from the wiki, never show up here, and run with it to do their own, maybe in a different country etc

#
aaronpk That's why I said "weird" and not "a problem" 😊
j12t and j12t1 joined the channel
#
j12t1 Well, can we get a critical mass together for one or a couple IndieWeb sessions at FediForum?

[aciccarello] Look's like Zach is playing around with archiving Mastodon posts like he did tweets https://fediverse.zachleat.com/@zachleat/109900653836580759

[aciccarello] Also, side note... When did Mastodon stop providing the source URL in the web UI? I can't seem to get it without opening the link in a non-logged-in tab.

#
[KevinMarks] Which instance, [aciccarello]? I see it in the web ui on indieweb.social and xoxo.zone - also elk.zone client added an 'original link'
#
[KevinMarks] On android you can long press "open original page" too to copy the link

#
starrwulfe [aciccarello] I click on the posted time links and that jumps me over to the original originating post from each thread participant's instance. Is that not the case with you anymore?
AramZS, j12t and mro joined the channel
#
[aciccarello] The redirects work but I thought they used to have the destination ups somewhat on the page
#
sknebel its in the 3-dot menu, but seems thats entirely disabled not logged in?

#
starrwulfe Some newer versions and modified masto instances do have fancy share links; notably the glitch flavor of v4.02 that allows for more formatting and presentation. Preloma/Accoma/Friendica/et al all do it differently as well of course

[aciccarello] Ah, I needed to look in that overflow menu. Thanks [sknebel]++
