Myrdin1 Hello!
#
aaronpk Domain name as handle on national TV! https://bsky.app/profile/lisaguerrero.bsky.social/post/3lbjdqwk3ws2h
#
aaronpk I'm only a little sad it isn't a personal domain
#
GWG Baby steps

#
[tantek] Yeah, subdomain but better than pure silo handle
#
[tantek] Would we feel excited about something dot tumblr dot com or sthing dot GitHub dot io?
#
[tantek] Or is it the use of "@" with a subdomain that's notable?
#
[tantek] What is a subdomain?
#
Loqi A subdomain typically refers to a domain with one more "name(dot)" component than that which someone actually has registered which is often seen indieweb sites with a family name domain like joel(dot)franusic(dot)com, or on silos like matt(dot)wordpress(dot)com, or sometimes for hosting files elsewhere like images.yourdomain https://indieweb.org/subdomain
#
[tantek] [aaronpk] feel free to add the example and image there ^

#
aaronpk the notable part is the @ and using it as a personal identifier. just sharing a link to a tumblr blog on screen wouldn't be the same, the @ is important
#
[tantek] Yeah I feel that
#
[tantek] What is at-domain
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "at-domain" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "at-domain is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] I thought I'd documented that

#
[tantek] I remember when "Starter Packs" were called "blogrolls"
gRegor joined the channel
#
aaronpk heh
#
aaronpk well
#
aaronpk blogrolls didn't have a "follow everyone" button
#
[tantek] then that's the innovation, not the "pack" itself
#
[tantek] which then gets back to a cross-site/system "follow" button
#
[tantek] because if you can do it for a single site, presumably you could scale that to a list of sites
#
[tantek] hmm, will take some follow-up to #indieweb-dev
