jbcrn oh capjamesg[d] i was able to log in on Artemis (using indieauth) even though I haven't signed up, though I can't do anything after that
# Loqi [edit] It looks like we don't have a page for "bridgy fed doing to pick the domain it presents" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "bridgy fed doing to pick the domain it presents is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# 
[aciccarello] [edit] The only thing I'm seeing in the new spec is about 301 redirects. See "Basic Redirect" in this section https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/#authorization-server-confirmation
# Loqi [edit] ok, I added "A Twitter archive project for [[Eleventy]] https://github.com/tweetback/tweetback" to the "See Also" section of /Twitter https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=84561&oldid=84514
# [aciccarello] [edit] Are you talking about https://www.w3.org/TR/indieauth/#redirect-examples
# [aciccarello] [edit] I'm not sure how you'd configure it (maybe a name attribute on <link rel="authorization_endpoint">?) but yes being able to drop the subdomain on the username. For a mastodon example, I think Zach does this on https://fediverse.zachleat.com/@zachleat which appears as @zachleat@zachleat.com

# [snarfed] [edit] https://fediverse.observer/stats#posts_growth says ~600M fediverse posts per month, works out to ~225 per second. substantial, but doable

gRegor [edit] The prefix tells parsers how to find the value, more on https://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2-prefixes
# gRegor [edit] Thought I was just reminded of https://indieweb.org/rel-author#Questions, which I'm not sure how applicable that still is
# 
rubenwardy [edit] should h-feed also be on tag pages, such as https://blog.rubenwardy.com/tags/projects/ ? Should the u-url be the tag page or the blog homepage?
# gRegor [edit] Note in https://indieweb.org/authorship-spec#Algorithm we recommend against rel-author for new sites/posts (mentioned in step 6)
# Loqi [edit] Micropub is an open API standard (W3C Recommendation) for creating, editing, and deleting posts on websites, like on your own domain, supported by numerous third-party clients, CMSs, and social readers https://indieweb.org/micropub
# [timothy_chambe] [edit] Agree with everything he's saying, except the idea that Subtack is anything but marginally better than Twitter at helping you "own your own platform." https://twitter.com/hamishmckenzie/status/1587849734181425152
# Loqi [edit] Personally I don’t want to host some WordPress:esque service. I want it to be my generated static site so that I don’t have to worry about hosting that much. (https://twitter.com/_/status/1587914427009228800)
# 
@hamishmckenzie The problem isn’t that Elon Musk owns Twitter – it’s that you don’t. We shouldn’t have to freak out about a dictator taking over a vast digital empire. People should control platforms rather than the other way round. (twitter.com/_/status/1587849734181425152)

# .pi.r2. capjamesg[d] TeX
chrisaldrich joined the channel
# .pi.r2. Since version 3, TeX has used an idiosyncratic version numbering system, where updates have been indicated by adding an extra digit at the end of the decimal, so that the version number asymptotically approaches π. This is a reflection of the fact that TeX is now very stable, and only minor updates are anticipated. The current version of TeX is 3.141592653; it was last updated in 2021.
