speaking of links pages, anyone here using a .link domain for a links page? e.g. https://zeldman.link/
#
[tantek]
links << IndieWeb Example: https://zeldman.link/
#
Loqi
ok, I added "IndieWeb Example: https://zeldman.link/" to the "See Also" section of /links https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=100436&oldid=100283
#
[tantek]
what's the best way to @-mention a Bluesky profile from an indieweb blog post?
#
[tantek]
going to just "try something" and see if it makes it across the BridgyFed bridge

ok here we go, attempting a multi-reply federation to both bsky and masto via BridgyFed: https://tantek.com/2025/071/t3/thanks-doing-what-we-can
#
[tantek]
let's see if BridgyFed federates that to both places and hooks up the in-reply-to for each
#
Loqi
hey [tantek]: that's a lot of dev jargon! federation, in-reply-to... can you move to #indieweb-dev?

I did buy the domains linkylinky.link and bio-in.link at one point, but didn't actually implement anything, and I'm trying to shed my unused domains

how come in the minutes it's not linking to my user page? I tried updating this but I'm not sure what the slug is here

bkardell: do you mean the name with photo displayed for people who do {{username}} on the wiki? Those are based on this: https://indieweb.org/Template:sparkline#How_to_make_a_small_h-card_template
bkardell joined the channel
#
bkardell
Zegnat: no I mean everyones names are links to their author page, except mine which says Template:bkardell
#
Zegnat
Everyone has a template per my previous link, that links to their wiki pages. But you have not created a template yet, so it is a red link until the template is created
#
Zegnat
E.g. benji has https://indieweb.org/Template:benji and that is what shows in the minutes when you write {{benji}}. You will need to create a similar wiki page https://indieweb.org/Template:bkardell then that one will be used
#
Loqi
Zegnat: can you move the tech talk (template) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?

this is something interestingly relevant: https://ploum.net/2025-02-27-engagement-rehab.html - what is indieweb addicted to?

#
Zegnat
petermolnar: nice share! Interseting read, though I am not sure I feel the same way about my being connected
#
[tantek]
what is engagement
#
Loqi
engagement is after you propose marriage and before signing a marriage certificate, or a term used by websites to describe how often and how long users spend time on those websites https://indieweb.org/engagement
#
[tantek]
^ could add it as a thoughtful / critical article there
#
[Jo]
what a great summary of engagement πŸ˜‚

Does anyone have custom 88x31 buttons for their website? I'm starting to collect them.
#
[tantek]
only a few indieweb examples on /88x31
#
[tantek]
I have asked for more a few times. I got partway through making one and ran out of time
#
capjamesg[d]
I added all the Firefox ones to https://jamesg.blog/buttons this evening.
#
[tantek]
πŸ‘€
#
[tantek]
that's a great set!
#
[tantek]
that first one is not quite 88x31 right? yeah 97x31
#
[tantek]
was wondering what was setting off the grid
#
[artlung]
looks like fb16.gif, mccoffee.gif, fb30.gif are somehow 404.
#
capjamesg[d]
Ahhh I forgot to upload those.
#
capjamesg[d]
And now I don't have them.

[tantek] I wanted to start a conversation to see what people think the indieweb is addicted to; I have no desire on wikifying it.

petermolnar, perhaps some mild chat addiction, I don't think anything really else from what I've observed of how frequently (or not) and how much people post on their websites or do things with them
