[jgmac1106] Anyone know anything about Known's Known to Known syndication? OMG Buffalo!
#
[jgmac1106] though I may just set up a shared Mastodon service and use Known to Mastodon plugin for the chat side of things
#
[jgmac1106] Building a quick OER network for my friends in Ghana using Known
[schmarty] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] This is our plan: A: members only site at oer.goiffoundation.org, B: Each member of the foundation will be given their own subdomain at xyz.oer.goiffoundation.org. On each of these subdomains we will be installing Known. C: Members will use site not primarily for their own sites but as their OER identity and a space to curate and create community. D ; We will add a Mastodon server using https://masto.host. You will be able to syndicate and each
#
[jgmac1106] control what can be sent from A, B, or C to D.
#
[jgmac1106] Now to go back to Twitter to beg for the $150 I need to raise.
#
[jgmac1106] not for broadcast yet, they are meeting in Ghana tomorrow as a team to finalize the plan
#
[tantek] sounds like a lot of moving parts TBH. If they each have their own why do you need a masto instance? Their Known's can reply back & forth directly
#
[jgmac1106] your right, maybe not needed
#
[jgmac1106] the chat stream is just different
#
[jgmac1106] same reason we all don't do each irc/slack post from our blogs
#
[jgmac1106] I think people want the social stream
#
[tantek] pretty sure Known has some sort of reader built into it
#
[tantek] your efforts are better spent getting that setup and working
#
[jgmac1106] it does and wilkl have native activity pub
#
[jgmac1106] it is stop gap
#
[tantek] might need to be updated to support Microsub
#
[jgmac1106] it is in the roadmap and being worked on
#
[tantek] don't make something stopgap for conversations, because then the conversations (links) die when you actually hit the gap
#
[jgmac1106] yeah good point...
#
[jgmac1106] and probably better to introduce less tools at once
#
[tantek] your time is better spent filing an issue on Known to explicitly support Microsub, and then advocating for that, pointing out that Micro.blog added support in less than a day at IWC Austin
#
[tantek] yes, *fewer* tools 🙂
#
[jgmac1106] and the oer.goiffoundation.org, will be a Known install, so they can syndicate to that
#
[jgmac1106] Wait for reader and ActivityPub integration besides one day someone will invent the websub chat or walkie talkie app you just add to any site in your network
