↩️ Summarizing my IndieWeb ideals in one tweet: 1. Own a domain, and post your stuff to it, rather than to corporate “silos”. (You can syndicate to em, though.) 2. Use Microformats2, semantic metadata embedded in HTML. 3. Use Webmention, a protocol that lets sites cross-comment.

I have no idea how grid works with animation timers but I imagine this whole new kind of CSS animation where you use a timer to set grid dimensions but have different media queries.
#
[jgmac1106]
Can make things collapse and unfold by timers be fun

ok, so I got my OPML up, being served as XML with XSL, looks reasonable, has collapsible details/summary elements. Now... how do I add this to my site nicely? https://petermolnar.net/following.opml
#
petermolnar
behind the scenes: it gets pulled from miniflux, which gets populated by my favs archiver, if the silo followings are out of sync

hey, is there a tool or something similar to test h-feed's?
#
gkbrk
I tried the tools on the wiki but they don't seem to be testing the feed, just the first h-entry it finds
#
KartikPrabhu
gkbrk: you can test your markup with any of the parsers here https://microformats.io/#parsers
#
gkbrk
parsing isn't the problem though, it's just HTML after all it's not difficult to parse
#
gkbrk
but it seems like every website/service around microformats interprets them differently
#
KartikPrabhu
yes. that is left to the consumer of the microformats
#
KartikPrabhu
so not sure what you are looking for
#
gkbrk
Basically a feed reader that consumes microformats
#
KartikPrabhu
what is reader
#
Loqi
A reader (AKA indie reader or social reader) in the context of the indieweb is the portion/feature integrated into an indieweb site that provides a way to read content from other indieweb sites, possibly including posts from the current site, and respond (like, comment, repost, etc) inline in the reading UI itself https://indieweb.org/reader
#
gkbrk
So I can see if it parses my page correctly
#
KartikPrabhu
that page has a list
#
gkbrk
that should be linked from "How to test feeds" probably

#
[tantek]
Great suggestion!
#
[tantek]
Maybe add a “Testing” section to /h-feed that links to /reader ?
#
gkbrk
This one worked
#
gkbrk
the other ones are things I need to self host or sign up to in order to test
#
gkbrk
this one is just plug-your-url and see it work
#
gkbrk
no need for micropub/microsub endpoints, just plain and simple html

@kartikPrabhu I need to do a little bit mroe styling to make the divs in conference procieedings be inling (the -cite needed an h-event child) but I think it is finally done (the citations): https://jgmac1106homepage.glitch.me/resume.html
#
KartikPrabhu
[jgmac1106]: I would use a list instead of divs there
#
[jgmac1106]
ahhh that would work....I kept racking my brain
#
KartikPrabhu
<div> is very overused. using actual "semantic" HTML tags goes a long way
#
[jgmac1106]
...I know I was trying not to, just couldn't figure out how not to use <p> and how to have a child h* the list will work!
#
KartikPrabhu
in fact that is literally a list :P

[jgmac1106] you mentioned in your "accidental blog" post that you hooked up your media to archive.org. do you have an example post or links to examples of content you're hosting on archive.org?

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

!tell aaronpk: the post itself has multiple author u-photo, a bug in their template, but X-Ray returns it not as a JSON array, but as a JSON object with keys "0" and "2".

aaronpk: [schmarty] left you a message 6 minutes ago: found a fun / weird interpretation from X-Ray on a post: https://xray.p3k.io/parse?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjonathanprozzi.net%2Findieweb%2Fhwc-baltimore-2018-12-11-wrap-up%2F

#
aaronpk
i will have to add that to the test cases
#
sknebel
wrong way to delete an entry from a PHP "array"?
#
aaronpk
http://php.net/array_unique "note that keys are preserved" oops

things are so much easier if your entries and post are just either mf2+json or plain html
#
KartikPrabhu
or html+mf2
#
jacky
ah when I think html, it's going to be html+mf2
#
jacky
since it's all classes and <data>
#
jacky
but yes

all of those images are question marks [jgmac1106]

they look fine to me
#
sknebel
snarfed: I think jacky is proposing some way for *my site* to learn what services I can syndicate to through bridgy, so it knows what to offer to the micropub client?
#
snarfed
wow i only halfway follow that. but ok!
#
jacky
wow if I disable ublock then they load
#
jacky
interesting
#
jacky
lol yeah so like this would be something a site could use once they read the page's info to find out what targets a syndicator can provide
#
jacky
and then give the site's owner a means of populating their syndication target list with it
#
jacky
this is indirectly a way for me to avoid having users (aka me) type in URIs and let that work be done on a trust basis with a service I signed into using my website
#
jacky
thanks for the redirect sknebel
