Loqi [indienews] New post: "How to use ways" https://thechels.uk/how-to-ways
#
[tantek] ^ I am suspicious of that post
#
[tantek] What is ways
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "ways" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "ways is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] Yeah not a thing here
#
[tantek] Anyone understand the indieweb relevance?
#
aaronpk what is slash page?
#
Loqi page is short for a web page on the IndieWeb, and is usually primarily known by its name (AKA named page), served at the top level of a site (AKA slash page), and kept updated in place in contrast to posts which are primarily datetime-based; a page that is browser-editable with viewable revisions is a wiki-page https://indieweb.org/slash-page
#
aaronpk seems to be about that, but i don't get it
#
[artlung] Yeah it's not fully baked.
#
[artlung] Would-be slash page. Might be, but lacks clarity or necessity. Maybe well-intentioned.
#
[artlung] https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/eff-leaving-x meanwhile, stats on “reach” on X really showing it as terrible platform at least for EFF. They're leaving it.

jacky [edit] [aciccarello]: if you want a micropub server to use and are open to using AWS, there's https://github.com/barryf/vibrancy/
#
Loqi friendly reminder jacky, [metbril], that's a lot of dev jargon! AWS, Micropub, markup... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
[metbril] [edit] I've sent an RSVP to https://events.indieweb.org/2022/02/personal-libraries-pop-up-session-Wax8N17zQuY0 through micropublish.net. My page doesn't have the `p-rsvp` markup class, but it's still recognized as a "Maybe". I'm curious how/why. Is this handled by the webmention receiver? Must be, since I can't figure out how else.
