[tantek] [snarfed] archiving, or forking with auto-updates except deletions, not sure. Essentially if I contribute content to something or otherwise modify it (tag it), that shows that I care enough about it that I don't want it to disappear from underneath me
#
[tantek] archiving/reply-contexts feel different — more like a snapshot in time

[jacky] good catch, [KevinMarks]

#
[jacky] how do people create 'destinations' for their site? might not be applicable if you don't have more than one site to post to
#
[jacky] channels might be a better answer actually
#
[jacky] I've been treating them as a custom type when I do a micropub creation request (overloading that for my own use)
#
sknebel how to add to the existing list of destinations?
#
[jacky] yeah
#
[jacky] right now, I do something like `h=destination&url=https://place.jacky.wtf&name=Places+of+Jacky`

[m] ↩️ [snarfed] I think that backfeeding is “enabled” for my account but I can’t see likes in Bridgy. This should work, right?

#
rubenwardy I've set up a really basic refback watcher, but it appears that only the domain is logged - not the referring page
#
rubenwardy what is refback
#
Loqi Refback is a linkback method that works using the standard HTTP Referer header https://indieweb.org/refback
#
rubenwardy > To mitigate security risks, browsers have been steadily reducing the amount of information sent in Referer. As of March 2021, by default Chrome, Chromium-based Edge, Firefox, Safari default to sending only the origin in cross-origin requests, stripping out everything but the domain name
#
rubenwardy seems to make refback a lot less viable
#
Zegnat rubenwardy: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Referrer-Policy#strict-origin-when-cross-origin - described the default browser behaviour
#
rubenwardy updated article
#
rubenwardy definitely good for security but is a shame for refback
#
rubenwardy what you could do is queue domains and crawl up to one level looking for links
#
rubenwardy Has anyone implemeted refback on their site?
#
rubenwardy I've added an examples section to that wikipage with myself
#
GWG I did a WordPress plugin but I haven't updated it in ages so it doesn't quite work
#
rubenwardy another option would be to use an RSS/Atom feed if present actually. This would work well for article/blog-style referring websites
#
[jacky] has anyone incorporated DIDs to their site/
#
[jacky] I imagined that folks working directly with or indirectly with Bluesky would have
#
rubenwardy what did
#
rubenwardy what is did
#
Loqi blockchain is a technology in search of a problem to solve, pushed by ideology into areas where the unsolved problems aren’t technological https://indieweb.org/DID
#
rubenwardy argh
#
[snarfed] yeah that's not right
#
[snarfed] I actually doubt anyone POSSEing to/backfeeding from Bluesky has done anything with DIDs explicitly. right now Bluesky generates and uses them entirely behind the scenes, and everyone's just cross-posting to accounts that they created via Bluesky
#
[KevinMarks] that links to https://github.com/w3c/did-spec-registries/pull/288#issuecomment-818925456
#
[jacky] gotcha okay
#
aaronpk i like how the last comment on that thread is the wiki commit referencing it
#
rubenwardy Is there a way to search the web that only includes personal websites?
#
rubenwardy Whenever I google anything about blogging, all the results are corporate
#
rubenwardy content marketing

#
[snarfed] [m] yup Bridgy supports Bluesky backfeed, including likes, https://brid.gy/about#backfeed . feel free to post your Bridgy user page and [Joel_Auterson] or I can take a look
#
[snarfed] oh nm you're https://brid.gy/mastodon/@marcuslindblom@mastodon.social , ok! looks like likes are working there
#
[m] This is me. I have multiple user pages. One per “channel” it seems. https://brid.gy/bluesky/did:plc:2jwys3khk3vezo4s7dodvrno

rubenwardy looks like indieweb search is having server errors
#
rubenwardy "Your request could not be processed due to a server error."

#
[tantek] do you mean chat or something else? indieweb wiki search seems to still be working?
#
[tantek] also, indieweb community infrastructure -> #indieweb-meta
#
[tantek] borderline indieweb only from the perspective of a tool enabling a single person to fully implement some pretty big things: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/11/20/a-coder-considers-the-waning-days-of-the-craft
#
[tantek] curious if anyone here is using GPT4 to write code for their personal site or libraries
