@remkusdevries ↩️ Very familiar story. We need Webmentions to be integrated in WordPress combined with ActivityPub (Fediverse). (twitter.com/_/status/1646770493788176390)
# @remkusdevries ↩️ At quick glance, that looks like a more complicated solution than Webmention? https://indieweb.org/Webmention (twitter.com/_/status/1646779514523975685)

# drmr Struggling to wrap my head around how micropub and webmentions might relate -- let's say you use a micropub client to "like" something, which publishes the like to your site, and the page you liked supports webmentions, it's the responsibility of the micropub client to then also send a webmention to that site, right?

# 
[schmarty] drmr: any system can send a webmention. that's typically up to your site, often your micropub _server_, or whatever service is responsible for making sure the new changes are published, like a build process.
# drmr Oh ok thanks! So it would be more natural to extend (in my case) eleventy to send webmentions on rebuild, but only for new ones?

# drmr Just found out about https://telegraph.p3k.io/ from the chat in Sia's talk, very useful!
# 
[aciccarello] Her talk was great and I love her site
# drmr Same, and I got a lot of ideas!
# drmr From Cory's talk too
# 
capjamesg I have a post like _posts/yyyy-mm-dd-slug and I want it to have the slug /yyyy/mm/dd/slug
# [aciccarello] Let me find that docs page
[schmarty] joined the channel
# [aciccarello] It's the permalink frontmatter
# [aciccarello] Here's what I have for my site `permalink: "/posts/
{{ page.date | date: '%Y/%m/%d' }}/{{ slug | default : title | slugify}}/"`# [aciccarello] No, I have that in a json file in my _posts folder
# [aciccarello] The data cascade will apply it to all files in that folder
# [aciccarello] Then I override it in a few folders like _posts/recipes

@fluffy ↩️ I made a token effort to keep it working but I think that Authl's Twitter support is, effectively, now dead.
This is your reminder that the #IndieWeb IndieAuth standard is a much better way to go in general, and Mastodon is extremely easy to write apps for as well. (twitter.com/_/status/1647001654322147329)

[KevinMarks] One I like is "it's always a great feeling when you fix the last bug in a software project. With a big enough project you can have that feeling every few hours for months."
# [KevinMarks] Also Norton's Law: In the long run all data is either public or deleted.
