[Rose]Specifically, I made this page: https://rosemaryorchard.com/recommends/. I would like the images to at the same heights after the titles on desktop and immediately after their titles on mobile. I think I need to use CSS grid?
[jgmac1106]ahh hold on have a tutorial for thatI use....so so you define the space...had to figure it out with cards on my website....though I may have defaulted to writing the same length copy every time
[Rose]Specifically I want it to look like it might be a table with the images all starting at the same height, so if one title is 3 lines long all of the images in that row get pushed down.
jeremycherfasIf each item is a flex container, then I think you are going to have to have each row be a flex container too. I'm pretty sure the height of that container can be set to the height of the largest item in it.
ZegnatWhat I am not seeing is how those separate containers are then going to line up their first element with eachother. I didn’t know containers could share that way?
ZegnatSo to summarise what you want: every recommendation should be its own “card”, but every card should adapt the height of its inner elements (title and description text) to match the tallest of all the cards?
ZegnatYes, except [Rose] wants all the titles on those cards to have the same height per row. Episode four should dictate the height of all of the title elements in that row
[Rose]I plan to chop this page into sections (what is currently the different icons next to the title. so those icons will go), which will provide some order
[jgmac1106]need a pop up event on cards or just make vHWC theme CSS grid and cards......though don't tell Kevin....has written a few anti-card posts that are informatove
aaronpkI applied in 2018 and have been getting reminder emails that they need me to remove apps that cover duplicate use cases and such but I've been ignoring them til now
Loqiusing is the name of an authoring and/or publishing application, or can also be a page of tools and services that someone uses or likes to use https://indieweb.org/life-stack
aaronpkmonocle doesn't store any state, and every pageload hits the microsub server every time, but that works very differently from Indigenous which maintains its own local cache of items
aaronpk[Rose]: ok i'm making this a temporary thing in monocle for now. it doesn't try to be smart about remembering whether you want a channel to only show unread items, but there is a button that can temporarily toggle into that mode
[frank][cleverdevil] If I want to try Indiepaper on my local machine or later on at my own server, how do I install it after cloning the repo? Does it need any setup params or configuration first?
jeremycherfasI've had a couple of cases lately where a friendly reader has emailed me to say that my Atom feed is mangled according to the W3C feed validator service. It is always some kind of weird invisible character, which doesn't show in Byword, but is easy enough to spot in BBEdit. Is there any tool that will check my feed locally? Or send me a message when it is not well-formed?
[cleverdevil][frank] Indiepaper is built as an AWS Lambda function. That said, you can run it locally or on your own server if you wish. My docs are pretty awful for that, though, since I figured most people would use the service ;)
[schmarty]depending on the environment, the full indiepaper.io service isn't necessarily needed. i use self-hosted Aperture for my Microsub backend, so I made an iOS shortcut that posts content to a Read Later channel. 😄
LoqiIt looks like we don't have a page for "video reply" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "video reply is ____", a sentence describing the term)
[cleverdevil]I was talking to an app developer who has an existing thing in the App Store about adding support for custom endpoints, but he sort of lost interest.
[eddie][Rose] [cleverdevil] My biggest issue is not knowing what format to send the data in. [cleverdevil] if you can figure out the JSON API that work well for either a custom Health Endpoint like Compass or a Micropub-based Endpoint, I’d be happy to try to make a bit more progress on that as a native app.
[eddie]From what I’ve seen I think data is pretty easy to get out of HealthKit, and it wouldn’t need much UI. But I don’t have the time to figure out the API side of things
[eddie]Hmmm that’s an interesting thought. I am definitely interested in it and can spend a bit of time on the iOS front. All I need are Draft API specs, and I can implement it.
Zegnat[eddie], you can consider doing what Overland does and just literally have a GUI that has the actual API options and thats it? Then let people figure everything out on the endpoint side
aaronpkexcept for the dead servers, it takes 7 minutes to deliver everything lol. this should let me speed this up, by adding more workers to just the activitypub queue
aaronpkbut the priority thingy didn't seem to work. it still waited until all the activitypub jobs were done before working on the jobs that were added after with higher priority
[manton]@GWG I've seen feeds like that (I think one of Dave Winer's tools does it) but I think enclosures are better for podcasts and (rarely) other files a specialized client might download. Photos are best as img tags and not also in an enclosure.
[manton]To me, the spirit of enclosures is to attach extra media that a client could do something with. Photos are inline in the post and it would be unnecessary to duplicate that information in an enclosure. (Also, there can only be 1 enclosure, but there are often multiple photos in a post.)
[tantek][manton] I just flipped my micro.blog feed URL to a custom Atom feed that only contains article and note posts (includes photos). no more like or reply posts.
[tantek]I'm happy to add more post types back in as you add explicit support in micro.blog for handling them so they don't add noise to the micro.blog reader experience
[tantek]GWG, I would recommend you read this thread before adding too many post types. In particular any /response post types that usually require understanding and displaying a reply-context to make any sense: https://micro.blog/JohnPhilpin/3702296
Loqi[JohnPhilpin] @Ron I can click through and read the tweets ... just tried .. but generally I don’t ... just not interested in what people like .... just what they say

GWGjackjamieson put me onto sanitization of content I am delivering to Yarns Microsub. While others put me onto what I am putting into my RSS and jsonfeeds
aaronpk"This was the time when the internet was decentralized, creative, made and shared by all who used it. Today, fewer people who use the internet build, hack and participate in its creation. There is more centralized control than ever before. The good news is that we still have the power to have an impact. It was built by us for us. It’s time to take control back and Mozilla is inviting everyone to

[jgmac1106] how are you setting the image height now?
Zegnat You can also try fancy CSS: https://wiki.zegnat.net/temp/wingingit.png
[grantcodes] Yeah I think flexbox will do it
jeremycherfas [Rose] Presumably you also want all cells in the table to have the same height when there is not additional copy after the image?

[tantek] video reply is a reply with a video, a [[video]] post that is in-reply-to another post, that used to be supported by YouTube but was dropped per https://techcrunch.com/2013/08/27/google-dumps-video-responses-from-youtube-due-to-dismal-0004-click-through-rate/.
