carrvo I've looked at mf2 *because* it gives me the opportunity to make my own unofficial vocabulary.
#
carrvo Domain specific vocabulary is a must or there will always be some level of mismatched approximation.
#
carrvo Definitely in favour of a protocol that is more meta than prescriptive.

[KevinMarks] A mastodon example of shoehorning is abusing the `summary` in AS as a content warning to hide the `content` of the post.
#
[KevinMarks] what kind of custom vocabulary are you looking at?

[tantek] What is AWS
#
Loqi Amazon Web Services (commonly abbreviated to AWS) is a collection of remote computing services that together make up a cloud computing platform, offered over the Internet by Amazon https://indieweb.org/AWS
#
[tantek] AWS << 2025-10-20 outage: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/oct/20/amazon-web-services-aws-outage-hits-dozens-websites-apps
#
Loqi ok, I added "2025-10-20 outage: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/oct/20/amazon-web-services-aws-outage-hits-dozens-websites-apps" to the "See Also" section of /Amazon_Web_Services https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=105279&oldid=102213

[lazcorp] Set up Octothorpes on my site to see how it works
#
[lazcorp] I think I'd prefer a way for me to ping http://octothorp.es to tell it to index a new page (or re-index an existing page), rather than the current when-someone-lands-on-it-but throttled-to-once-every-5-minutes for the privacy concerns etc (and needless re-checking of years-old blogposts)
#
[lazcorp] I might look into the webmention harmonizer, but I don't think it's planned until v1
#
[lazcorp] an even easier way would be for it to poll my RSS feed once an hour and grab any new posts from there (the hashtags are in the <category> elements anyway)
#
[aciccarello] [lazcorp] I saw you recently opened an issue on their repo. I just opened an issue about how to potentially use webmentions as the trigger https://github.com/stucco-software/octothorp.es/issues/145
#
Loqi [preview] [aciccarello] #145 Support indexing via webmention
#
[aciccarello] [lazcorp] Feel free to add yourself to the wiki page as an example too
#
[aciccarello] what is octothorpes?
#
Loqi Octothorpes is both an aggregator and a method of publishing hashtags and backlinks to help connect web pages used by some community members on their personal sites https://indieweb.org/Octothorpes
#
[lazcorp] [aciccarello] that would be a definite improvement!
