Some for the more advanced stuff like 2D / maps. however the basics / sequential nav options still make lots of sense IMO

1. There is no client with support to create posts with images? I know that I can sent an image with a post, but not *inside* a post. I think this should be implemented client side, like the client send the pic to media endpoint and then after it gets the link, it inserts the link inside the post.
#

I think Quill in it's long-form mode allows to insert images in e-content
#

2. I still don't get how brid.gy figures which webmention to send where. I need to use syndicate-to to every other site (like, twitter, for example) or it can find the link back if I post the original link in the the post content on other site?
#
Lohn
vikanezrimaya: Thanks, I'll check that.
#
vikanezrimaya
Lohn: Oh. I think it remembers u-syndication links you can use after you send your webmention - it actually returns you a link in Location header you can then plop in your post with an update
#
vikanezrimaya
Then it can easily remember which tweet is which by scanning your feed or something?
#
vikanezrimaya
i'm not sure but I remember u-syndication links linking to tweets being the key
#
vikanezrimaya
It also can find the original if it's linked in the tweet, yes
#
vikanezrimaya
that's the default mode actually
#
vikanezrimaya
but I remember that constant link posting has got my account somehow lowered in the search rankings or something last time I checked so I'd recommend disabling it to stay safe
#
vikanezrimaya
silos don't like when people stay independent off them so you have to pretend you're relying on them
#
vikanezrimaya
i hate silo search algorithms
#
sknebel
bridgy docs have a bunch of detail on how and when it sends: https://brid.gy/about#which

<vikanezrimaya> "I think Quill in it's long-form..." <- vika (she/her) 🏳️‍⚧️: Ok, Quill really *allows* to insert image in post in long-form mode. It's just not too intuitive and I'm not too smart to figure it out before.
#
Lohn
<vikanezrimaya> "but I remember that constant lin" <- Nice tip. Thanks again.
#
Lohn
<vikanezrimaya> "i hate silo search algorithms" <- Only Zuck like them.
#
vikanezrimaya
Lohn: Of course. He made them.

Getting on nicely with implementing sidenotes and other Tufte goodness but, and this may make sense only to Brits of a certain age, I find myself thinking of red squirrels and road safety.

Right now I'm using a conditional in the head to load one css or another, so I'm off to read up on any-child-of selectors, because it would be a lot easier to add a class outside all the relevant content.

random: does anyone consider using content type negotation when an authorization attempt fails and you want to present information to a user?
#
sknebel
jacky: elaborate?

I just got a "<ul> and <ol> must only directly contain <li>, <script> or <template> elements" error in the Axe accessibility testing tool.
#
capjamesg[d]
I thought you could include <p> tags etc in an li.
#
sknebel
is that what it is complaining about?
#
sknebel
sure you dont have one misnested, outside the <li>?
#
sknebel
(happy to take a look if its public/you can post the code)
#
jacky
actually nvm - the thing I'm asking is very specific to my setup

sknebel great question.
#
capjamesg[d]
I just checked and I have some <hr> tags in the <ol> on prod that I have removed on local.
#
capjamesg[d]
Whoops 🤦
#
capjamesg[d]
sknebel++ for making me rethink

Does anyone pass their HTML through a validator?
#
capjamesg[d]
I'd like a tool that I could use progamatically.
#
capjamesg[d]
I thought this tool supports JSON (https://validator.w3.org) but maybe I am misremembering something.
#
capjamesg[d]
I know validity is not equal to conformance but I have caught some issues in the past from manual checks and I quite like doing so every now and again.
#
sknebel
capjamesg[d]: https://html5.validator.nu/ has an API and can be run offline (see "about this service" link in the footer)
#
sknebel
maybe that was the one you were thinking of?

[jeremycherfas] I think the Tufte Club is worth founding
