weird date format but ok
#
[tantek]
[KevinMarks] that looks mostly dev-stuff, maybe better there

oh i get it, it's most to least specific, like DNS
#
[tantek]
that's quite the interesting article [KevinMarks]

in case anyone wants to document /silo Hive Social which will likely be gone within a year https://xoxo.zone/@andybaio/109435055904912441 (thread)

what i want to know is how did they do such a PR blitz to get that many users so quick
#
[tantek]
pretty looking iOS app + early adoption among a certain (young) crowd + Twexodus

what is BeReal
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "BeReal" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "BeReal is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
^ I know people that use this
#
[tantek]
the silo-via-native-iOS-app pathway is well established, perhaps originally with Path
#
[tantek]
what is Path
#
Loqi
Path was a content hosting silo for private sharing of information among a small (limit 150) group of friends https://indieweb.org/Path
#
[tantek]
BeReal could be an interesting service (notification via Webmention?) and Micropub client
#
[tantek]
hah, shades of /Monogram : "Once the daily notification is sent, users lose the ability to see others' BeReals from the previous day"
#
[tantek]
HAHAHA what?!? you get shamed for posting too late?!? "While on-time BeReals show the time it was uploaded, late BeReals uploaded after the two-minute window only show how late the poster is."
#
Loqi
[tantek]: lol
#
[tantek]
tbh the description of BeReal’s UI makes me anxious. It's like the opposite of slow web
#
[tantek]
what is slow web
#
Loqi
slow web is a movement based on deliberately designed web sites focused on more well user-paced experiences instead of real-time, reactive, or frantic experiences, and has principles similar to and compatible with IndieWeb principles https://indieweb.org/slow_web
