s​isoma Could this be relevant to the IndieWeb? Seems to be a project to pull data from social networks, like Reddit, and host it elsewhere, like Lemmy?

[tantek] Listened to the whole Vergecast episode on POSSE and it's excellent. Good interviews with Cory Doctorow, Matt Mullenweg, and [manton]++
#
Loqi [manton] has 8 karma in this channel over the last year (44 in all channels)
#
[tantek] It's on topic here because it's very much about all the user-level questions and reasons for how & why to use your personal site to post
#
[tantek] Lots of noteworthy quotes by David Pierce and a handful of questions that I need to write blog post answers for
#
[tantek] What's the best podcast hosting site that supports time index media fragments? I'd like to link to the specific spot in the podcast where he says or asks something
#
[tantek] [KevinMarks] ^
gerben and [sebsel] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] you can do that directly with the mp3 file and an <audio> tag with a media fragment eg https://www.kevinmarks.com/hotlinkmp3.html
#
[KevinMarks] You could also use WEBVTT to make a chapter track and put the mp3 in a video element, but I haven't tried that for a while so not sure what browser support is like

#
[tantek] [KevinMarks] the use-case here is for someone else's podcast that I don't have permission to repost somewhere as an mp3
#
[KevinMarks] that's what I did- hotlinked his podcast mp3 directly
#
[KevinMarks] to #indieweb-dev

#
[KevinMarks] POSSE pushback? https://www.garbageday.email/p/your-guide-to-the-guides-for-fixing
#
ndegruchy [KevinMarks]: very light push back. More of an opinion of how it looks. I imagine if you were of the same mind, you could just filter those sorts of things out of the "main feed" as it were and relegate them to their own sections unless promoted as such.

Loqi ndegruchy: [capjamesg] left you a message on 2020-10-27 at 10:44am UTC: /SPOA

[capjamesg] Welcome back ndegruchy!
#
[capjamesg] I follow your blog in my feed reader!
#
ndegruchy Hey, James! Nice to see you, again. I follow you, too. I can't believe people still follow me.
#
[tantek] what is Halloween?
#
Loqi 🎃 Halloween is an annual holiday on October 31st that often inspires holiday themes on websites, both personal and corporate https://indieweb.org/Halloween

ndegruchy As predicted, coming back here has me looking up indieweb compatible software and wondering if it's going to end in another WordPress install

[tantek] for anyone coming to border:none tomorrow, note that the hashtag is #bono23 and if you're looking to @-mention, there's https://twitter.com/border_none

[tantek] [matthiasott] are you coming to IndieWebCamp this weekend?
#
dmowitz The recent "The Verge" article reminded me of the existence of POSSE. That in combination with SiloRider (https://github.com/ludovicchabant/silorider) motivated me to add some more h-entries on my website. I think I might do that now, let's see how it goes…
#
Loqi [preview] [ludovicchabant] SiloRider: Scans a website's microformats and cross-posts content to 'silo' services.
#
dmowitz Also: If that's not too much of a -dev topic, can anyone tell me if I can add some custom text around my posts (that is not in the h-entry) depending on the feed?
#
ludovicchabant dmowitz: hah nice! I didn't know anybody else knew about my little project :D Ping me if you run into trouble... so far, without any external feedback, there's a big chance it feels like a "written by myself for myself" sort of thing
#
ludovicchabant of note, also, I recently started using it with a wordpress website on which I don't control the theme and markup, so I added the ability to edit the html in memory before it's passed over to the microformats parsing. Basically adding all the h-entry and other classes on the fly via a config file.
#
Loqi dmowitz ludovicchabant: can you move the tech talk (Microformats, markup) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
ludovicchabant Oops yeah
#
dmowitz Thanks for the reminder, Loqi
#
Loqi you're welcome, dmowitz

[jamietanna] GWG 👋 Yeah I unfortunately only have so much time for all the things and my current focus has been building dmd.tanna.dev, but I hope to get back to IndieWeb soon, albeit I want to rebuild my website which is a large overwhelming task so :face_with_peeking_eye:
