does anyone know how I can use trap with arguments in bash to pass the actual error it caught from another pipe?

unsupported does not mean it will disappear immediately

I think I would need to see an example of indie-config - the description doesn't make sense to me

@gwg I'm not exactly generating a lot of interaction, but pingback/trackback are virtually NONE of my interactions. I'm either getting spam comments or spam interactions from Twitter. My highest value interactions are coming in via Webmention

[Scott_Jack]: Exactly

So time to reconsider supporting them

this is what `property-$PROPERTY_NAME` support looks like for my micropub server https://imgur.com/a/Elp2OFS
#
[tantek]
[scojjac] indie-config works best with sites that are already setup to accept Micropub requests

accompaying post for those images (as to how I did it) https://jacky.wtf/2022/6/fDu9

Does anyone recall getting a useful Pingback or Trackback in recent memory?
#

^ this is the kind of thing we should ask aaronpk to do some quick stats on wm.io for. I expect it has lots of both, and we could probably come up with some basic heuristics for spam, eg has a given trackback/wm ever been moderated or fetched via the API
#
[tantek]
wm doesn't handle trackbacks AFAIK
#
[tantek]
wmio that is

sure, sorry, just pingbacks
#
aaronpk
i hope i have logs about which are which
#
aaronpk
aha yes there is a record!
#
GWG
aaronpk: I'm very curious
jacky joined the channel
#
aaronpk
determining which are "useful" is going to take some manual work tho
#
GWG
I have a few observations that I noticed. It's looks like many are using feedwordpress... wasn't the developer of that in here recently
#
GWG
I'm horrible with names
#
aaronpk
in the last 30 days, webmention.io has received 6800 pingbacks and 11820 webmentions

#
GWG
aaronpk: Any way to look at the quality of the Pingbacks?
#
GWG
Even just one users?
#
aaronpk
it'll take me some time to review the quality
#
GWG
aaronpk: What about just a random 5?

[Scott_Jack] just FYI I'm not seeing that scojjac.com advertises either pingback or trackback endpoints, so that's probably the main reason you don't get any of them
#
[Scott_Jack]
odd I don't remember disabling
#
[Scott_Jack]
thanks for checking

They're def turned on in Discussion settings ...
#
[snarfed]
oh my bad, sorry, they are advertised on your posts, just not on your front page
#
[snarfed]
(pingback, not trackback)
#
GWG
[snarfed]: Same as the webmentions..we changed it to only advetise on URLs that supported it which included the homepage only if that option was enabled...which I remember came up with bridgy
