Anyone of you here familiar with Go and WebMentions and need some short-term fixed-price work?

prologic
If you are on Upwork; even better. LMK by PRIVMSG me

Facebook's ownership of React has a deep and inextricable impact in how that library is developed.

ok, I added "https://twitter.com/tesseralis/status/1294429685422542848?s=20" to the "See Also" section of /React https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=72066&oldid=69884

what is it with me and generally validated distrust of javascript community issues
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "it with me and generally validated distrust of javascript community issues" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "it with me and generally validated distrust of javascript community issues is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tw2113]
I haven't heard the best stories about React, at least from single POV, and now this one with Gatsby

So how am I supposed to mark up an h-cite (for context) and h-entry (for content) in the same publishing request from a Micropub client to a Micropub server?
#
hirusi[m]
I've been wondering this since yesterday and I can't find a satisfying answer anywhere
prologic joined the channel
#
prologic
Can I ask a question on <title> tags? I have this request from someone in the community that wants me to put the entire post inside the <title> tag for "permalinks" to said post.
#
prologic
a) Is this a good idea? b) Won't it be potentially too long and umm well noisy?
#
prologic
c) Is there a better way?

sknebel
hirusi[m]: https://micropub.spec.indieweb.org/#nested-microformats-objects - but in many cases the context would be something the server is expected to generate, not the client
#
sknebel
prologic: If the post doesn't have a title I think it makes sense - although I'd cut it off after a X characters
#
prologic
yeah
#
prologic
this is hwat I'm trying to work out
#
prologic
the best way to represent this
#
sknebel
(although I haven't checked what accessibility recommendations are in that regard)
#
prologic
I'll finish this idea I have and put it up into prod
#
prologic
and maybe you can tell me wha tyou think?
#
sknebel
X = 200 or so
#
sknebel
(I like *something* post-specific in the title becauseit makes the tabs distinguishable. if there's 10 tabs all saying "post on site.com", that'd doesn't help
#
prologic
yeap
#
prologic
II tltally get that
#
prologic
tthe problem is I don't know what the best way to do this is
#
prologic
there's so much competing rubbish otu there re SEO, title lengths , etc
#
prologic
eg: some say 60 some say 70
#
prologic
who knows 🤷‍♂️
#
sknebel
twitter puts full tweets in titles 🤷‍♂️
#
prologic
I see
#
prologic
What do you think?
#
sknebel
I'd put the site name at the end. the date too, or get rid of it
#
prologic
just for the permalinks?
#
prologic
and maybe increase the MaxTitleLength?
#
prologic
its 60 right now
#
prologic
suggestions for increased max length?
#
sknebel
200? 300?
#
prologic
done
#
prologic
refresh/click around and LMK what you think now
#
prologic
COol I think this is much better
#
prologic
I hope

porting from #indieweb 08:51 <smacko> Wondering here: https://indielogin.com/api steps 1 & 3 shouldn't the state be set in a cookie and verified against the callback value?
#
smacko
fancy seeing you aaronpk :-)
smacko[m] and jonnybarnes joined the channel
#
aaronpk
and yes, you'll need to store that state value somewhere, either a cookie or server-side session

Anyone written a simple mf2 to jf2 recursive conversion function? I feel like I might be doing it in a convoluted way

I did it in python

That may not reflect more recent jf2 discussions

[KevinMarks]: What's the status of jf2?
#
GWG
There are a few things I think need to be discussed
#
GWG
For example, refs vs references
