Hello everyone! I'm new here, and I had just recently stumbled upon the IndieWeb and was really intrigued by the whole concept
#
lecaseus
I've just finished adding rel=me's to my code and an h-card although I'm unsure what comes next :b
#
[jeremycherfas]
Welcome lecaseus. What is your site’s url?
#
thamara_k
lecaseus[d] welcome!
#
lecaseus
ohh sorry about that, my website is at https://cheztervargas.xyz
#
[jeremycherfas]
No problem. Slowly, slowly.
#
[jeremycherfas]
Good heavens. Is that a genuine live ECG or just eye candy for the live HR?
#
lecaseus
Hahahah that's just a simulated waveform although it does react when you scroll
#
Loqi
hey lecaseus, we try to keep jargon (Microformats, React) out of this channel to make it more inviting to newcomers, can you move this to #indieweb-dev?
#
Loqi
hahaha
#
paperbritt
This is a very nicely designed site. Dense but not overwhelmingly so, very nice.
#
paperbritt
I really like your project cards.
#
lecaseus
paperbritt[d]: thank you! ^^
#
thamara_k
lecaseus[d] I love the site design!
#
lecaseus
ohh and I selfhost my site on my laptop so I do have the occasional downtime

[jeremycherfas]
Very nice site. And Loqi, sometimes a person can react without requiring dev technology.
#
lecaseus
thamara_k[d]: thank you so much! I try my best to improve the site more, slowly as I learn new concepts
#
thamara_k
you're in the right place then
#
lecaseus
I'm currently focusing on my backend right now so I might ask some questions at indieweb-dev soon haha
#
lecaseus
Wow people genuinely have a lot of cool sites
#
lecaseus
chr0m4: I love this one
WinnerWind joined the channel
#
paperbritt
Oh that is also very nice. This is what I miss when I don't scroll back.
#
Loqi
misses when I don too
#
paperbritt
Poor Loqi, I think the heat is getting to them.
#
[capjamesg]
hands Loqi an ice pack.

lecaseus
I've a question though I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask: How do I get my site to be part of the "Visit a random site" at indieweb.org?
#
[capjamesg]

#
lecaseus

#
[capjamesg]

A new independent Uruky review was just published: https://theprivacydad.com/why-i-use-uruky-a-private-search-engine/ and Uruky just recently hit 200 monthly active accounts! We're over the moon! Sorry if this looks spammy, but we're thrilled!

I'm discovering IndieWeb and will mostly read discussions for now: I like the idea but don't know yet how I can integrate the principles or tooling in my everyday life. It feels good to re-open an IRC client ;)

Notoriously, cult members are obliged to agree strongly on everything. This may not be a cult. Enthusiastic club at most.
#
jak2k
[artlung]: I strongly agree!

chr0m4
uhmm, how is it possible that it answeers so fluently questions like the cult stuff?
#
chr0m4
[ZodiacalComet]: all praise to the founders then
#
[capjamesg]
When you say X or Y Loqi randomly chooses one.
#
[capjamesg]
Which is to say, it was impossible to know what Loqi would say 😄
#
[capjamesg]
I think Loqi is over a decade old at this point.
