paradigmatic
Hi. I'm trying to join the Indieweb movement. I managed to setup indielogin and I can authenticate myself with success.
#
paradigmatic
But I tried to register on webmention.io and I am redirected to an error page. With only content: "Internal Server Error"
#
paradigmatic
I don't know how and where to report de problem.
#
doesnm
try to ask in #indieweb-dev or in issue tracker maybe?

paradigmatic
which issue tracker ? the webmention.io github one ? I thought it was for the software, not the service. Am I wrong ?
#
paradigmatic
I am writing in #indieweb-dev also.
#
doesnm
maybe it's software bug

#
earthmover_i_have_a_gun
so uh what is irc?
#
earthmover_i_have_a_gun
is it like xmpp?
#
doesnm
not quite
#
Loqi
hey earthmover_i_have_a_gun, [tantek]: we try to keep jargon (XMPP, XML) out of this channel to make it more inviting to newcomers, can you move this to #indieweb-dev?
#
[tantek]
yep, faster, without all the XML bloat, and with actual servers people are still using
#
[tantek]
lol yes
#
earthmover_i_have_a_gun
didnt know xmpp was jargon sorry
#
doesnm
<[tantek]> yep, faster, without all the XML bloat, and with actual servers people are still using <- and not federated (loqi will kill me :p)
#
[tantek]
lol doesnm yes also true, or rather, certainly IRC servers are not commonly networked with each other by default. I have seen/used it in the past however
#
doesnm
i saw one through project which may solve this (but not sure). Maybe discuss in #dev

Ok, nice little prompt at the bottom of Stefan's site there: "Ad-blocker not detected

[tantek]
my new thing since the last HWC is my /publications page (and that wiki page)
#
gRegor
what is publications
#
Loqi
Publications is a page on a personal website that lists official or more formal publications (than say blog posts), like books, videos, academic papers, typically published by a publishing organization https://indieweb.org/publications

ad blockers are heartbreaking. on the one hand, modern web outlets are overstuffed with them, and sometimes unusable. on the other hand, ads still provide the vast majority of funding to web publishers, so encouraging ad blockers hurts them. 😢

do those small graphics we decorate our footers with have a distinct name? badges? banners?
#
capjamesg
What is a button?
#
Loqi
Buttons are badges, logos, and banners that you can use to link to indieweb.org and related sites & technologies, and similar images for a handful of sites similarly aligned in principles or development approaches https://indieweb.org/button
