Kolev Anybody use Zola? I can't get the page title to show up. https://codeberg.org/kolev/calebh-top/src/branch/main/templates/base.html#L6

CrowderSoup Why is it that deploying something new is always one problem after another? lol. Fighting with getting this app to connect to the database correctly so I can share something with y'all!

# CrowderSoup aaronpk: it's a microsub reader!
# CrowderSoup Yes! I hoped there was. This has been SUPER fun to build and I’m building towards something honestly even cooler

[KevinMarks] it feels very fluid
# CrowderSoup [tantek]: thank you! aaronpk high praise from you! I've been using Monocle for years. It was my inspiration for PADD.
# [KevinMarks] marking read is explicit here, but implicit in monocle when I scroll past; also mark read does not update the sidebar count
# CrowderSoup Ah yes, still a few rough edges! This is why I wanted to share because it was at the point where I could no longer see the forrest for the trees haha
# CrowderSoup Thank you all for trying and thank you Kevin for your feedback!
# CrowderSoup Hooray!
# CrowderSoup [KevinMarks]: I'm thinking for "Mark as read" that I will add a setting for that. I like the explicitness of it. Scrolling past should be something you can turn on though! (and certainly counts always need to be updated)
# [KevinMarks] another small surprise - I expanded a post (A Cory Doctorow one, so long) then hit space expecting it to scroll down, and it un-expanded the post. Having a way to unexpand the post is good, but that one threw me. Also, you might want to animate the expand/contract as a cue.
# CrowderSoup [KevinMarks]++ for some very good QA right out of the gate!
# CrowderSoup I would love that! I can turn on auto-scaling and I just got paid yesterday ;P
# CrowderSoup For sure! I just scaled up a bit and if the load stresses that out it'll give me the chance to learn how to set up a load balancer in digital ocean lol.
# [KevinMarks] I'm getting some 500 errors when I try to switch tabs in the sidebar
# CrowderSoup Could be that I just deployed. If it persists after a hard refresh I'd love some logs and screenshots!
# CrowderSoup [KevinMarks]: I'm currently working on a feature that would allow me to send broadcasts to users so I can notify y'all when I'm doing an update.
# CrowderSoup I probably would have finished that feature if I realized y'all would like it so much haha.
# [KevinMarks] that seems more stable; it might be worth doing a watch cursor on the sidebar click as there is a bit of a delay before it updates
# [KevinMarks] I am seeing console logs that say `htmx.org@2.0.4:1 The selector "#lcars-loading" on hx-indicator returned no matches!`
# CrowderSoup I'll look into that one! What browser are you using? I use a Chromium derivative (helium) and am not seeing those.
# [KevinMarks] chrome on mac
# [KevinMarks] thats when i click the sidebar tabs
# CrowderSoup Okay! I will try it in regular chrome!

[aciccarello] Just added the client metadata to the omnibear website
# [aciccarello] Testing with a local build shows it working with Indiekit!
# [aciccarello] ^ for aaronpk

# CrowderSoup Heck yeah, that's awesome!
# CrowderSoup [aciccarello]++
# CrowderSoup For those of you using PADD: this will be the last time I let you know here that I'm going to deploy an update. This update gives me the ability to send you broadcasts in-app when I do that so I won't have to pollute the chat here.

# CrowderSoup I broke it lol, this is why I'm adding broadcasts because I'm still very much in the I'm going to be breaking things a lot
# CrowderSoup Fixed. Turns out you have to run migrations if you update database models.
# CrowderSoup okay okay, this'll be my last update about PADD lol. If you sign in and have trouble reach out! https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/dqpfPWo0/PADD-Broadcast.png

# 
thepaperpilot so webmentions receivers tend to handle dupes nicely?
# thepaperpilot e.g. if I sent out webmentions for every link, after every edit, would it be rude/spammy
NaomiAmethyst6 joined the channel
# thepaperpilot I'm looking at webmention.app and it gives instructions to have iftt run a check on a homepage every hour
# thepaperpilot so I guess it at least does some de-duping

# 
[schmarty] thepaperpilot: yes, webmention receivers are expected to handle duplicate notifications

capjamesg The code formatting on https://jamesg.blog/h-feed-to-ics is somehow broken but it only takes a few indents to get the script working.

# CrowderSoup I really like the idea of being able to pipe the IndieWeb events feed (or _any_ events feed) to a calendar folks could subscribe to with whatever calendar app they prefer.

# CrowderSoup Oh? I didn’t realize! I should have looked closer.
# CrowderSoup Ah! I see it now at the bottom.

Loqi ICS (AKA iCal or iCalendar file / feed) is a format for calendar files (a form of feed file) used by many programs such as Apple Calendar and Google Calendar, and can be used to share and subscribe to calendars across different systems https://indieweb.org/mf2_to_ics

gRegor Add to Calendar links at the bottom of individual events: https://gregorlove.com/2017/06/homebrew-website-club/
barnaby joined the channel
# gRegor Subscribe to Calendar (webcal) links for the stream of events: https://gregorlove.com/calendar/ This one shows some past events so they stick around a bit longer when I subscribe in gCal
# [morgan] This seemed relevant enough to post here. GitHub is allowing the ability to disable pull requests on a per repo basis, and some other options. Its not emphasized a lot in the main post about it https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/187038 but it seems to be a reaction to places with bot spam PR attempts.
# [morgan] I just figured there was a non-zero chance someone here might make use of this feature, even just to prevent a slop PR. Really seems like a rough and tumble time out there
