Loqi [Event Updated] tantek.com updated "Apr 25 - 26, 2026 🎪 IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf" changed summary "link wiki page explicitly in summary for easier discovery" https://events.indieweb.org/event/923/history/2708/diff
#
[tantek] sigh, I really hate markdown being "dumb" about auto-linking plain links (as in it doesn't)
#
[tantek] markdown-- for not doing the simplest possible URL auto-linking (which every chat app does 🙄 )
#
Loqi markdown has -1 karma over the last year
#
Loqi [Event Updated] tantek.com updated "Apr 25 - 26, 2026 🎪 IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf" changed summary "explicitly hyperlink the wiki page URL since md is too dumb to autolink URLs" https://events.indieweb.org/event/923/history/2709/diff
#
[tantek] !tell [me1850] [Schepp] take a look and review my summary intro of what IndieWebCamp is and how it works at the top of https://indieweb.org/2026/D%C3%BCsseldorf — I took some of the text from the btconf side event page, simplified, copy edited, and linked to more details elsewhere in case people are curious. Goal is to make the wiki page more welcoming to new people.
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
[tantek] hmm I wonder if that tell will actually tell both 🤔
#
gRegor I think it does
#
[tantek] I forgot a comma between the two names

ulhar4409 re: markdown not autolinking: come to think of it, that means the "correct way" to put a hyperlink with the address as its text necessarily repeats the address
