[KevinMarks] hm, I though the point was to highlight retro designs - i haven't heard them called nostalgic designs?
# [chrisbergr]1 retro web design, vintage web design, nostalgic web design is often used synonymously. And what is usually meant is that websites have a theme that looks like a certain era. But what is meant here most, I would rather call 90s web design
# [chrisbergr]1 There is also some overlap with brutalist web design
# [chrisbergr]1 .. kind of
# [tantek]2 what are 1990s
# 
Loqi The 1990s was a decade that saw the invention and growth of the web, dominated by independent websites, as well as nascent silos like Geocities, with a particular aesthetic that would come to define the era like under construction graphics, dancing animals, site counters, and guest books https://indieweb.org/1990s
# [tantek]2 1990s << retro
# Loqi ok, I added "[[nostalgia]]" to the "See Also" section of /1990s https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=77913&oldid=76935

GWG Bringing this over from -chat I use checkins usually only when I'm on a trip and want to be able to generate a trip log later. Sometimes I do take pictures, but don't always have time or mobile bandwidth (due my cell plan) to upload at the time I take it and sometimes add it later. Looking for better workflow ideas.
# GWG Actually, https://david.shanske.com/2021/W46/map/ works
# [chrisbergr]1 You wouldn't believe what my checkin flow looks like. Swarm checkin when leaving the car -> take a few pictures from the outside -> more pictures from the inside during the stay -> on the way back add selected pictures to the swarm checkin -> at home in WP Admin delete the automatic comments and the post -> go to ownyourswarm and manually bring the checkin back to my site -> in WP Admin open the post, add the pictures as a
# [chrisbergr]1 gallery, add categories and tags, update.
# [chrisbergr]1 It is okay, just doing little when outside. At home the cleanup is terrible
# [chrisbergr]1 Because of polylang. The autopost via micropub does not contain any language information. And posts without language do have a lot of problems in my setup

[jeremycherfas] I click Lication in WithKnown and adjust the name of the place, if necessary. That’s it.

capjamesg[d] What is the best practice on deploying static sites on a server?
# capjamesg[d] My site and static generator are now on a cloud server. My Micropub server relies on Git to add files to my site.
# capjamesg[d] Is a Git hook the best way to sync up the website? Or should I just remove Git altogether?
# capjamesg[d] I am mostly thinking out loud here. I haven't made a decision.

# 
[schmarty] capjamesg[d]: i've got a split deployment process, all built around git, but not using git hooks directly.
# [schmarty] my micropub endpoint creates git commits and pushes them to a repo on my gitlab server. gitlab sends a message to my publisher which is listening on a webhook.
# [schmarty] the publisher does any pre-build work like fetching reply-contexts, builds and publishes the site, figures out which pages actually changed, sends out webmentions and websub pings.
# capjamesg[d] Is your publisher a server you own?
# [schmarty] the micropub endpoint and publisher live on the same little digitalocean server, yep.
# capjamesg[d] Got it. Do you have a separate server to listen for the webhook ping or is that part of your micropub endpoint?
# [schmarty] the publisher has two parts - a daemon that is waiting for jobs, and the webhook which creates a job when pinged.

# 
jamietanna capjamesg[d] one option is to have a CI server (i.e. GitLab CI/GitHub actions) that can trigger on pushes to your main branch and then copy over files via SSH
# jeremycherfas I have passwordless login enabled on my DreamHost server. Is there any obvious reason why a command given directly in the Terminal works just fine, while the exact same command given as part of a cron job fails with a (publickey,password) error?

# capjamesg[d] jamietanna Are there any good GitHub Actions tutorials?
# jamietanna[m] Sorry not that I can refer you to, I'm a GitLab person 😁
# capjamesg[d] [schmarty]++
# capjamesg[d] for being so helpful!
# capjamesg[d] Any good guides nekr0z? I am having trouble getting my head around them.
# capjamesg[d] I think I am going to use Git so I can keep track of my site history.
# capjamesg[d] jamietanna Actions are on my mind too.

# jeremycherfas !tell nekr0z Really? I better look into that. Thanks.
