#
[snarfed] chrisaldrich long time no see!
#
[snarfed] that sounds like [caseorganic]ā€™s kind of thing
#
[chrisaldrich] It's been a longer than usual summer. I've been lurking though...
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: We miss you
#
[chrisaldrich] I'm always around, just lots of changes, particularly with respect to family.
#
[chrisaldrich] What's new?
#
[chrisaldrich] šŸ™‚
#
GWG I'm trying to figure out if I can get to Nuremberg
#
[snarfed] [chrisaldrich] Twitter is dying, threads are on Threads, Bitcoin has its own (non-)silo, everyone claims they're joining the fediverse...nevertheless, the indieweb persisted
#
GWG I want to push myself to write more on my site
#
[snarfed] that should cover it
#
[chrisaldrich] Thanks snarfed.... I think I was up on it all except the bitcoin piece which I quit watching two years ago. šŸ™‚
#
[snarfed] yeah I was mostly joking šŸ˜†
#
[chrisaldrich] I know a lot of people who feel unmoored due to the slow dying of Twitter and no where else to go...
#
[snarfed] (the bitcoin thing is https://nostr.com/ )
#
[chrisaldrich] snarfed++ for "nevvertheless, the indieweb persisted.
#
Loqi snarfed has 35 karma in this channel over the last year (157 in all channels)
#
[chrisaldrich] I'll take it back then, I knew about Nostr, just not the underlying bitcoin plumbing.
#
[snarfed] ah no none of that, overlap is purely cultural
#
[snarfed] https://fed.brid.gy/docs#compare
#
[chrisaldrich] What is Factr?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "Factr" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Factr is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[chrisaldrich] I actually heard about AllTechIsHuman from Michael Grossman of https://factr.com/ who I've been on a couple of conference calls on recently.
#
[chrisaldrich] It seems like a silo with a reasonable base, but I've not dug into it very deeply yet.
#
[chrisaldrich] That compare chart is a pretty solid overview. Thanks.
#
[snarfed] welcome!

#
khurtwilliams With the changes in Facebook and Twitter API access, POSSE with back feed has become challenging. What are some things that IndieWeb WordPress are doing to overcome these challenges?
#
rubenwardy My solution for that was to quit Twitter
#
rubenwardy Maybe you could do stuff manually or use a browser plugin to sync
#
[tw2113_Slack_] i gave up on Twitter
#
[tw2113_Slack_] iā€™m awaiting the day that the url redirects to http://x.com
#
aaronpk yeah same, my motivation for posting on twitter is approximately zero
[nsmsn], ren and jarkad joined the channel
#
[snarfed] agreed. khurtwilliams a number of us looked and tried pretty hard, but couldn't come up with anything reasonable. technical background on Bridgy specifically: Twitter https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/1410 , Facebook https://brid.gy/about#rip-facebook
#
Loqi [preview] [snarfed] #1410 Handle Twitter API going paid
#
[snarfed] write-only POSSE for Twitter is definitely doable on their free API plan though! I don't personally plan to build for that, given how much the API has degraded and how it now seems largely unmaintained, https://snarfed.org/the-twitter-api-is-now-effectively-unmaintained , but feel free to try
