Ok KevinMarks, thanks for the reply. I was going to pose the question "Why should I use this dohickey?" and then I said that's a dumb question unless I answer it myself
#
sparseMatrix
so I did

what is freenom?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "freenom" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "freenom is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[schmarty]
looking at https://indieweb.org/personal-domain#Domain_Registrars there's a section on Freenom that says: "You can also opt to pay for a domain if you want an ownership guarantee"
#
[schmarty]
it worries me that there is no clear business model for Freenom on the wiki. really feels like there has to be a catch.

what is .onion?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for ".onion" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say ".onion is ____", a sentence describing the term)

https://www.freenom.com/en/index.html?lang=en "Freenom World is a fast and anonymous Public DNS resolver" yes, I'll pass every domain request through a random company. At least they are in the Netherlands, if that matters...
#

sparseMatrix
a not-so-unlikely but still theoretical scenario: I set up a UI element and a method to post a comment associated with a post on my site. What is the protocol/mechanism (if any) for supporting the (potential) h-card identifying the commentor?
#
sparseMatrix
in other words, is this something which is automated (in a library, say), or is this something that I need to implement overtly?
#
sparseMatrix
I do believe so- thanks [KevinMarks]
#
sparseMatrix
I've got some schooling to do on the topic of syndication, but I'm off to a good start

Noice, I've gotten the 'writer' chunk of my wannabe CMS importing hcards and displaying some identifying data from it in the UI
#
sparseMatrix
the whole system lacks polish but is working quite well.
