Last time he added an On This Day section to his site
#
Zegnat
He has another site, linked as a stream, using Known
#
Zegnat
Shows a checkin where there is supposed to be a map, but there is not

Zegnat
Known uses the Stamen tiles that are being deprecated, and he would like to fix that
#
Zegnat
Hopes to look at that tomorrow
#
Zegnat

Web component that displays the replies / boosts directly from Mastodon

#
Loqi
[preview] [Joschi Kuphal] Hey! Glad you’ve made it here! ツ
#
Zegnat
Has not done anything with his site recently, nor “proud of anything”
#
Zegnat
Started 2014, with the intention to post a lot of blogs
#
Zegnat
Efforts are going into other sites, and not landing on his own
#
Zegnat
Has been pulling in interactions through webmentions
#
Zegnat
jkphls main focus has been accessibility lately, but was not the case yet in 2014, so it is lacking a little on his personal site
#
Zegnat
Not sure if it is realistic to work on it tomorrow, or maybe replace it completely
#
Zegnat
next up [tantek], tantek.com
#
Zegnat
Has had website maybe since sometime ’99
#
Zegnat
2009 introduced a minimal amount of PHP
#
Zegnat
Likes to post everything he can to his personal site. Whether it is short notes or replies to someone (shows reply to Mastodon)
#
Zegnat
Most recently he got likes of toots working
#
Zegnat
Anything he would normally post to social media he posts to his site instead
#
Zegnat
Other little thing: GitHub reactions
#
Zegnat
Thanks to Bridgy Fed the site talks ActivityPub so uses his site instead of a Mastodon account.
#
Loqi
friendly reminder Zegnat, can you move the tech talk (PHP, ActivityPub) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
Zegnat
You can follow tantek directly by using the follow box on the right where you can enter your @-@ address
#
Zegnat
Set up a photos grid, sort of as an Instagram replacement
#
sknebel

#
Zegnat
Only recently started posting again
#
Loqi
[preview] Sebastiaan Andeweg
#
Zegnat
Site does a lot of things: it has a full twitter archive, Instagram, and other silos are in there
#
sknebel
has all his tweets and instagram posts on there
#
Zegnat
The one missing for him personally is Strava
#
Zegnat
That is his “last silo”
#
Zegnat
Weekend goal: to maybe be able to post runs
#
Zegnat
next up: (the next) sebastian
#

#
Zegnat
Next uo: Sofia
#
Zegnat
Does not have a personal website, nor domain name, so can start fresh here at the IWC
#
Zegnat
next up: jeremy keith adactio.com
#
Zegnat
Has had the domain for “about a quarter of a century”
#
Zegnat
It has been “blog-like” for 22 years now
#
Zegnat
Homepage is a feed of all the types of content he posts. (External) links, blog posts, notes
#
Zegnat
It has not changed much, as put on display during the border:none talk
#
Zegnat
All changes, like sparklines, have happened during IndieWebCamp
#
Zegnat
Behind the scenes: standard LAMP stack
#
Zegnat
What he want to do: show related content at the bottom of posts, based on all the tags that are used for content throughout the years
#
Zegnat
Because he has the links section going for a long time, the further back in time you go the bigger the chances are that links are broken
#
Zegnat
Would like to have broken links pointed at potential archived versions of those links
#
Zegnat
Next up: Jan Saur.
#
Zegnat
Mostly did backend work in his free time, bleeding over from job, so no website to currently show

And is developed in 1 day sprints at indiewebcamps
#
Zegnat
Next focus: some sort of UI to access private content, wants to start using it to store private bookmarks
#
Zegnat
Also import Mastodon posts, that might not all be public either, which would need to be restricted on the site too
#
Zegnat
Next up: bjoern.stierand.org
#
Zegnat
Also runs on Known, but has also been a long time since he posted
#
Zegnat
Does not really have content to import, as no longer using any of the silos

Site been around in this form since 2005.

#
Zegnat
Graduated to the more traditional blog
#
Zegnat
Over several IWCs added content syndication. POSSE/PESOS etc.
#
Zegnat
Proud of the guitar strings added to the header of the blog
#
Zegnat
It is playable
#
Zegnat
It is in tune, so you could tune your gitar using it
#
Zegnat
Did a nerd dive into guitar frets so the responsive website could still have them scaled correctly
#
Zegnat
Thinking about moving this entire website to maybe ClassicPress, so wants to check that out as a CMS this weekend
#
GWG
Reminds me I need to check back into ClassicPress.

Always 80% done when he worked on his website at previous IWCs. Launched his 20% done website.

Zegnat
Quote from site: “This website is ready. And its not. I hope it will be the beginning of my never finished but done for now personal website. Like it, hate it, discuss it. Let me know what you think.”
#
Zegnat
Created a section called ToDos on the website, so he could pick a task and hopefully get something more striked through this weekend
#
Zegnat
Website built on Kirby
#
Zegnat
Website has been there for 3–4 months, but it is lacking the CMS edit panel, so nothing has actually been published yet
#
Zegnat
Next up: Fredric fmarx.com
#
Zegnat
*Frederic
#
Zegnat
A lot of seeds for the website were planted during IWCs
#
Zegnat
Last thing he did, when .gay-tld became available he got software.gay as a copy of his site, just styled in the colours of the bisexual pride flag
#
Loqi
[preview] Matthias Ott
#
Zegnat
Did the thing developers love to do: started rewriting the site a year ago. The digital garden talk resonated with him. Wants to make some headway this weekend to publish the new version of the website
#
Zegnat
Next up: Felix felix.dm
#
Zegnat
Here for his first IWC
#
Zegnat
Tries to keep the website dynamic, things like the shirt he is curretly wearing, and other interactives.

#
Zegnat
Any remotes who want to intro? GWG, sgreger?

#
Zegnat
The blog mostly consists of annotated bookmarks
#
Zegnat
Moving more and more away from the stream/blog to the digital garden idea, called Resources on his site
#
Zegnat
Get away from the pressure of finishing a blog post, and instead build meaningful pages over time
#
Zegnat
Despite trying to get away from there: about a year ago the website is activitypub enabled and can be followed straight from e.g. Mastodon
#
Zegnat
Motivation to make it work was bigger than to use it, no notes posted in the last year.
#
Zegnat
Website has been running on Kirby for 4 years
#
Loqi
hey Zegnat, I don't mean to be a bother, but ActivityPub seems like a better conversation for #indieweb-dev
#
Zegnat
“How does a digital garden fit into this metaphor of streams and feeds?”
#
Zegnat
5 in the morning
#
Zegnat
Known for working on the WordPress plugins

#
Zegnat
Shows the weather for all posts, as long as the post has a location
#
Zegnat
“Like everyone who has gone before me, I keep saying I should post more”
#
Zegnat
Taking a 10 minute or so break, and then we will be planning the sessions for the rest of the day!

good morning GWG

GWG
"I want to learn about Ticketing"
#
GWG
If we could record the sessions in the remote participations areas, would appreciate
#
GWG
I'll post them for people who didn't attend to enjoy later
rainystorm joined the channel
#
GWG
I can't see the schedule.
#
GWG
Since I can't see, what is first?
#
GWG
I'm interested in having food brought to me....
rainystorm joined the channel
#
Zegnat
The schedule should now be up to date, and we will do our best to stick to the times listed. https://indieweb.org/2023/Nuremberg/Schedule#Saturday

The main room is the one we did intros in and has the big remote setup

Lunch was just moved to ~14:00. Moving some things to earlier. #Linkrot will be happening in the backroom while getting started continues in main.
egoexpress joined the channel
#
egoexpress
The 'Just Build Websites' session should be a staple at IndieWebCamps. This is really cool if you can't make the second day or if there is no session running that piques your interest.
#
sknebel
we just never made it explicitly "a session" before
#
Zegnat
I think it is great to have it as a session here, so we can assign a location. Sometimes venues have more of a default place for “not in a session”, and that is where people have been hacking on day 1 :)
#
[tantek]
what is how to organize
#
Loqi
IndieWebCamp Organizing is a great way to bring together your local IndieWeb community, yet is also quite challenging, requires co-organizers, and key details to succeed that are documented in this page https://indieweb.org/how-to-organize
#
[tantek]
^ Zegnat, sknebel, perhaps add it somewhere there?
gerben joined the channel
#
GWG
Not sure where we are.
#
GWG
Are we starting yet?
#
GWG
I've just been waiting for this for 2 years or so
dmowitz, gerben and sebbu joined the channel
#
[tantek]
only 2 years GWG?
#
[tantek]
when was the previous microformats issues session?
#
GWG
[tantek]: Since barnaby and I almost got one
#
GWG
But I really want to make it annual at minimum
#
GWG
I have a desire for another Micropub pop-up session to discuss similar
#
Loqi
friendly reminder [tantek] GWG, it looks like this conversation is getting pretty technical (Microformats, Micropub), can you take it to #indieweb-dev?
#
GWG
I think it might be more meta
#
[tantek]
yes we can take it to #indieweb-meta
