#
[jeremycherfas] [capjamesg] Interesting post, and I really like the way you are thinking out loud. I should drift more in that direction.
#
[capjamesg] [zacharykaiwrit]++ Great post!

#
[capjamesg] [jeremycherfas] Are you talking about the web reader one?
#
[jeremycherfas] I am. I know it can be hard to keep up. 😀

#
[capjamesg] I’m glad you enjoyed it! After I published it I was a bit uncomfortable because the ideas are not as mature as I would usually publish, but my hope is that it inspires someone to make something.
#
[jeremycherfas] I don't (yet) use Artemis, so I don't feel qualified to comment, but a clear explanation of why am I seeing this post is something I know I have wanted in NewsBlur.
#
[jeremycherfas] My current habit is only to read once a day, in NewsBlur and Monocle. Does Artemis import opml?
#
[capjamesg] Yes.
#
[capjamesg] You can sign up at https://artemis.jamesg.blog/signup and import OPML from the “add” page.
#
Loqi hey [jeremycherfas], [capjamesg]: that's a lot of dev jargon! OPML... can you move to #indieweb-dev?
#
[jeremycherfas] We are finished now Loqi.

acegiak God trying to work out how to add the bizarre version of QRTs that mastodon has implemented to microblog.pub and I am so frustrated. i'm just not the level of developer that tsileo is and the way Mastodon has chosen to do it is so dumb and it's making me miss how easy it was to do stuff with just the mf/webmentions/push stack.

leonanda [zacharykaiwrit]: Helloo, thank youu, been learning livecoding audiovisuals lately and found a way to incorporate that to the site!
#

[schmarty] aks: i see it in slack!

#
gRegor I think Slack avatars are separate. Image is generally working, but I think chat.indieweb.org may not support webp for the image proxy
#
gRegor o/ acegiak, nice to see you again

#
aks since its easier, i can now do it on phone too
#
ZodiacalComet Removing friction makes using/working on something a little more enjoyable indeed
#
aks the whole indieweb thing has been very motivating for me
#
thamara_k I concur

#
[fnhipster] Nice. I recently migrated to Astro and was wondering if there was a CMS that would provide a good authoring experience. I'll give it a try.
#
aks i like how it works with pretty much anything
