Ah TIL
#
[jacky]
well lol it seems like no one wants to be a robot if they don't respect `robots.txt` lol
#
[snarfed]
iirc "Archive Team interprets robots.txt as damage and routes around it"
#
[snarfed]
(Archive Team is affiliated with but not the same as Internet Archive. I think.)

Micro.blog got a shout out at the start of https://changelog.com/podcast/528 👏
#
[jamietanna]
As did Webmentions! (I'm listening to it right now, will maybe avoid live posting all the mentions 😂)
#
[tantek]
please do live-post the mentions! feel free to put them in #indieweb-meta if you like 🙂

aaronpk, and others here who federate directly with AP/Masto servers, perhaps this is an opportunity to demonstrate eating your own cooking and reply to this from your personal site directly (no POSSE) : https://otter.garden/@joel/109938014168087758
#
[tantek]
(yes using Bridgy Fed is ok, because BF is not POSSE)
#
gRegor
I just replied and see aaronpk did too

Ooh, and I can try to federate an update since I have a typo, haha
#
gRegor
Even after I read it twice XD
#
gRegor
And it worked! [snarfed]++

Yeah the whole federating updates thing has been pretty magical. Like when I rewrote how all my footnotes worked and then presto
[tw2113_Slack_] and [KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks]
Also I get notified that you updated it if I repost it
#
[tantek]
wow really? I suppose that makes sense! in case someone edits something to mean something you don't like
#
[tantek]
what do those notifications look like? just a "this changed" or does it actually show you a diff? or?
#
sknebel
"xyz edited a post: new content"
#
[tantek]
literally "new content" or is that a substitute for the actual new content from the post that is shown like a diff?
[campegg] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks]
It shows you the new post and there's a toggle for the previous one

[preview] [James] IndieWeb Principles
#
IWDiscordRelay
<c​apjamesg#4492> Some exploration:
#
[tantek]
capjamesg, not sure the principles lend themselves to a "big block of prose text" like that. Hard to easily tell where one starts/ends. I'd say no more than one per line
#
aaronpk
i think it's fun
#
[tantek]
I could see more than one per line if neither has to break to another line.
#
[snarfed]
Interesting, dedicated web -> fediverse bridge for a single publisher: https://theverge.space/
#
[snarfed]
Unofficial
vilhalmer joined the channel
#
[tantek]
I wonder if they figured out federating hashtags from their blog posts -> fediverse 🙂
#
[tantek]
[snarfed] also NOT MADE BY THAT PUBLISHER! "_Disclosure:_ This website is not affiliated with The Verge or Vox Media"
#
[tantek]
Involuntary single-publisher federation, that seems a bit bold
#
[snarfed]
Right, hence "Unofficial"
#
aaronpk
it can be first party and unofficial. third party seems more different
#
[tantek]
the person who created/built it is not among those who are listed as federated, so that smells third party to me
#
[tantek]
perhaps there is a feedburner-like opportunity here. fediburner?
#
aaronpk
lol fediburner sounds like something different
#
aaronpk
burner fedi account
#
[tantek]
I mean it could do that too
#
[tantek]
similarly: fingerburner

There were a bunch of rss to fediverse adaptors before the recent pop
