cambridgeport90 Did I miss something, or are other channels outside of the MB timeline ignored in RSS readers when MB is used as the Micropub reader? I added some feeds to Aperture (not self-hosted yet, though I want to), and then logged itno both Together and Monocle with my site, which runs on MB for the moment until I get my server back up. I can't see any of the channels I added in the reader, only the MB timelines.
#
Loqi misses something too

#
rubenwardy what is Loqi
#
Loqi Loqi is a friendly and useful bot/digital therapist present in the IndieWeb discussion channels https://indieweb.org/Loqi
#
rubenwardy should reply with "no one ever asks how is Loqi :'("
#
gRegor gives loqi a hug
#
Loqi steps on the hug
#
capjamesg I should have said "++" in isolation.
#
capjamesg So as to indicate agreement.
#
capjamesg gives Loqi another hug
#
Loqi it is probable
#
[schmarty] gives loqi a nother hug
#
Loqi loves the nother hug
#
aaronpk 😂
#
capjamesg :D
#
capjamesg My original question still stands.

#
[campegg] capjamesg I've seen "+1" used for agreement before, "++" not so much. Having said that, I had no problem working out what you meant from context
#
capjamesg ++ is easy to type.
#
capjamesg And + is literally positive.
#
capjamesg And the karma convention.
#
capjamesg I have found myself using more semicolons recently to separate out thoughts, then fixing the sentence structure as needed; makes it easier to type.
#
capjamesg The semi-colon is never far away; a full stop then capitalization involves more friction.
#
capjamesg (for informal writing)
#
[campegg] Yeah, I get the karma thing (which is a carry over from IRC) and I think in this context with this audience it works. I don't know that I could use "++" at work, for example, and expect people there to know what I mean… "+1" is more common there.
#
[campegg] And I'm with you on the semicolon
#
[tantek] -> #indieweb-meta
#
rubenwardy when I was working on my dissertaion, I ended a lot of sentences with ; because C++
#
Loqi C has 1 karma in this channel over the last year (16 in all channels)
#
[campegg] [tantek] Sorry! Wasn't paying attention to channel
#
rubenwardy (like, accidentally)
#
capjamesg I think I have started using ++ at work.
#
epoch +=42
#
[tantek] yo - chat about chat please -> #indieweb-meta
#
epoch o7
#
[tantek] ty 🙂
