#[contact898]a friend of mine uses astro and is very happy with it I think
#[aciccarello]I've heard good things about astro. I think that's what [Al_Abut] is using for his site.

#[Al_Abut]Yep! I love it now that it’s going but just a heads up that you definitely need to be comfortable with javascript.
#[aciccarello]If you have technical questions, the #indieweb-dev channel is a great place to ask
#[Al_Abut]Took me months of getting the rust off to get set up the way I like it, worth it in the end for me personally. Might be worth looking at a few other options first, like eleventy or Hugo.
#luqtasnice! i'll just want to have a side menu with pages/posts... i think there are tutorials

#[Al_Abut]their tutorials are the best, it’s how I got sucked in 😂
#[Al_Abut]It’s probably overkill for most blogs, happy to expand in #indieweb-dev
#mceplAre there any known problems with GPG signing to https://indieauth.com/? It used to work for me, but suddenly it doesn’t.
#aaronpkthat site brings my browser to a crawl and scrolling is super laggy :-/

#[aciccarello]I don't blame sites for being frustrated, but I noticed that the they don't mention caching at all in that article which seems like what they need. I don't see how Cloudflare is supposed to help
#[KevinMarks]maybe if they served it statically the previews would work too
#[aciccarello]Yeah, seems like mastodon is exposing an architectural issue
#luqtas_weird part that centering isn't working quite right but that's ok

#[snarfed]^ that Mastodon DDoS issue is so painful, esp that it's years old. if you have to say "don't share links on our network," that's clearly a bad sign for encouraging adoption or usage

#[tantek][snarfed] I got stuck on trying to name the problem in order to create a page on it

#[tantek]DDoS is a jargon acronym so I was hoping to use something more broadly understandable / searchable / findable by people looking for an answer (but not knowing it, like yes, if you know to search for DDOS, then you already know part of the answer)
#[tantek]yeah I'm adding a bunch of links to /to-do which has an existing entry for "need to create a thundering herd page" in general, beyond Mastodon
#LoqiMollyWhite has 2 karma in this channel over the last year (3 in all channels)
#[tantek]aaronpk which site? the itsfoss site? "simple" answer: block all JS on that site by default, loads fine, zero lag, fast scroll, images load no problem etc.
#[tantek]but that was syndicating my own content to IndieNews
#[tantek]I don't have a /bookmark post type to submit someone else's URL to IndieNews
#[tantek]and that article deserves to be directly submitted like that so its article name & permalink show up top level in the newsletter, rather than one our brief notes about the article
