[tantek] finally wrote that blog post about webmention, external content, and use of unicode-bidi to isolate external text parsed from a received webmention: https://tantek.com/2025/012/t1/eight-years-webmention cc: [snarfed]

Loqi [preview] [Tantek Çelik] 🎉 Eight years ago today, the #IndieWeb Webmention protocol was published as a W3C REC https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/ As a social web building block, #Webmention was designed to work with various other building blocks. Small pieces, loosely joi...

capjamesg[d] [snarfed] Have you run into issues with 429s with the hosted Granary?
#
capjamesg[d] I was looking at my feed reader logs yesterday and noticed that Substack in particular returns lots of 429s, which isn't ideal as a polling service. I wondered if you had any recommendations about what to do in this scenario where you need to poll dozens of feeds on the same domain but run into rate limits.

#
[snarfed] hmm!
#
[snarfed] granary doesn't poll feeds
#
[snarfed] Bridgy and BF do, with backoff for errors and whether there are new posts, but those aren't overly "smart"

#
capjamesg[d] Thanks for the info!
#
capjamesg[d] I wondered if so many people used Granary's web app that you started to run into limits.

corlaez Any nginx wizards? I managed to make let's encrypt work, but I can't for the life of me stop seing the nginx default index page, and my redirect rule won't work
#
corlaez https://corlaez.com <- is now an nginx banner
#
[snarfed] [capjamesg] h-feed reader usage is still pretty small, way more people using granary to convert to Atom/RSS than from

#
[snarfed] or to h-feed
#
[snarfed] also jsonfeed making a surprisingly strong showing there

#
corlaez ooh ok, interesting. The nginx banner was being served by a webworker. Apparently, I bricked my ssl config and I had to run the certbot again and just reinstall the same certificate

#
corlaez Ok Fixed my issues. https://corlaez.com and gemini://corlaez.com both working :)
#
corlaez It ain't perfect (for whatever reason I can't make nginx serve files yes) but it is enough for now

#
scattershot1 does anyone have the instructions to verify handy so i can get a cool [] around my name
#
aaronpk the brackets are people coming in from the slack gateway
#
aaronpk if you want a photo and link to your site in the logs you can add yourself here https://indieweb.org/chat-names
#
scattershot1 oooh i see. thats the link i was looking for. thank you!
#
aaronpk since you're on IRC, you could always just set your nick to have brackets if you really want 😂
#
[aaronpk] like this
#
gRegor haha
#
{gRegor} or extra fancy
#
scattershot1 fancy fancy
#
gRegor Apparently "+" is invalid, though. So much for my attempt to hacky Loqi's karma by changing to gRegor++ :D
#
[snarfed] omg
#
[snarfed] little loqi tables
#
gRegor hahah
gregsarjeant and sebbu2 joined the channel
#
gRegor capjamesg, for feed polling, you could check for ETag and Last-Modified headers
#
capjamesg[d] gRegor I already am 😦
#
gRegor oh it's responding to HEAD requests with 429?
#
aaronpk - is allowed in a nick tho...
#
aaronpk someone in another channel added "--" to the end of their name to troll Loqi
#
capjamesg[d] gRegor yeah. Maybe I need to check my Etag logic again though.
#
gRegor They might be aggressively limiting, but seems weird they wouldn't offer something as a header, or maybe an `expires` in the feed itself (I don't know offhand if that's actually a thing in Atom...)
