[tantek] What is post footer
#
Loqi Post or posts may refer to individual pieces of content published on an indieweb site such as notes, articles, & responses, or the act of creating the aforementioned content (present tense), or Posts about the IndieWeb https://indieweb.org/post_footer
#
[tantek] [chrisbergr] see that link ^ which has if list of post footer sections, "Further Reading" being among that (I might move "post footer" to its own page with subsections because it's gotten pretty long)
#
[tantek] Yooo I’m tempted to just post "itter" and pin the POSSE tweet: https://twitter.com/williamlegate/status/1643984416166002691
#
@williamlegate Elon Musk, in a remarkable show of maturity, has removed the "w" from Twitter's logo outside their San Francisco HQ. The company now reads as "Titter" https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FtCbHCNaEAYoq1n.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/1643984416166002691)

aaronpk I saw that earlier but is that actually real? Seems like a good fake photo viral post moment
#
aaronpk Oops thought this was #indieweb-chat
#
aaronpk in other news
#
aaronpk what is elsewhere?
#
Loqi elsewhere is a common IndieWeb building block, both on homepages for linking to other aspects of your identity elsewhere, and on posts for linking to copies of your posts elsewhere https://indieweb.org/elsewhere

@brianstelter NPR hasn't tweeted since Musk's unjust labeling decision, and its bio now directs visitors elsewhere: "You can find us every other place you read the news." https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FtERAJ5XsAgn9I2.jpg (twitter.com/_/status/1644114036185874433)
#
Loqi ok, I added "https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1644114036185874433?s=46&t=p1u_JcTcHVYZivndrfI98g" to the "See Also" section of /elsewhere https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=87340&oldid=86796

IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> Good morning IndieWeb!
#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> I was so excited when I saw the Twitter office in SF.

#
massageball Hi. I’m new. Can I ask a question about Homebrew Website Club (UK)? I wondered if it’s only for serious techies or could be ok for beginners too?
IWSlackGateway and [KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] You'd be very welcome as a beginner.

#
jmac Good morning, IndieWeb.
#
jmac After a years-long dormancy I checked to see if Bridgy was up to speed with Mastodon. Of course it is! I was able to update my blog appropriately within minutes! "Man, IndieWeb folks kick ass", I thought to myself, and so here's me saying it in person.

#
[snarfed] the bluesky people really are low key indieweb, in spirit at least if not in protocols. from https://staging.bsky.app/profile/pfrazee.com/post/3jspkqvwx5c2g : "3. We use domain names instead of email-style usernames. No double "@" like "[jeffpaul]@server". It's small but I think it's nicer."
#
[snarfed] I'm still a bit embarrassed that I harrassed Jay a while back for hating DNS, https://twitter.com/schnarfed/status/1470764520549146628 . they're building on DNS pretty heavily!
#
@schnarfed @haxor Thanks man! And yes, as far as we can tell, that's the take. We knew it was a blockchain/web3 crowd going in; we figured it would be fun anyway. And it was! But yeah, that crowd hates DNS. 🤷 https://snarfed.org/bluesky-satellite-contest-entry (twitter.com/_/status/1470764520549146628)
#
[KevinMarks] That may be because Paul learned about the downsides of replacing dns when working on DAT
#
[snarfed] maybe! I suspect at least some of the DNS design decisions happened early, before he joined, but he probably at least supported and extended them
#
[KevinMarks] I thought the DID stuff was his style, it reminded me of https://github.com/pfrazee/json-lz/blob/master/DESIGN.md

#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> What would JSON-LZ be used for [KevinMarks]?
gaussianblue, [pfefferle], [schmarty] and nsmsn joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] It was a reaction to json-ld, a model for just in time schema definition
#
nsmsn Added next week's (THE) Eleventy Meetup to events.indieweb.org: https://11tymeetup.dev/

capjamesg Nice!

#
nsmsn Hope this isn't a dumb question, but is there a way I can sign into chat.indieweb.org with my domain name?
#
[tantek] ^ goals -> #indieweb-meta 🙂

#
[jacky] this blog's approach to showing a /archive is interesting https://cj.rs/blog/
#
[jacky] like using superscripts that show the count of posts per month
#
[jacky] and per year
#
shreyanjain[m] <[snarfed]> "the bluesky people really are..." <- heck yes. it's awesome
#
shreyanjain[m] paul was talking about letting people have a small webpage at username.bsky.social which could summarize your latest posts etc. Maybe that's an opportunity for them to explore some indieweb protocol stuff as well
#
[jacky] you're not _terribly_ wrong about the web3 crowd being anti-DNS tho lol
#
[jacky] but I never thought bluesky to be such of a group - tbh they're like a public think tank form of the SocialCG
#
shreyanjain[m] [jacky]: Didn’t they try to make their own nft based replacement
#
[jacky] immediately runs away from this convo
#
[jacky] (lol I don't know tbh)
#
[jacky] unless you're talking about whatever Dorsey's doing with that tbd thing
#
shreyanjain[m] oh lol I was thinking of ens.domains
