very succinct summary of why RSS readers are hopelessly behind, and how this brings "Reading" up to modern expectations

what is a reader
#
Loqi
A reader (or indie reader) in the context of the indieweb is the portion/feature integrated into an indieweb site that provides a way to read content from other indieweb sites, possibly including posts from the current site as well https://indieweb.org/reader

or rather, written for people who are not familiar with indieweb terminology, even if they are otherwise "technical"
#
tantek
yes, that's the key audience this is for
#

what are former projects
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "former projects" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "former projects is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
tantek
former projects are projects that may have been used by indieweb community members in the past, but have either been abandoned, or failed to implement any key indieweb building blocks — if you’re actively using one of these for your primary personal site, please add yourself to its specific page, and bring it up on the #indieweb-dev [[chat]] channel!

Nice that worked
#

I want to move the whole discussion in this section somewhere else especially since IndieAuth.com doesn't do SMS auth anymore https://indieweb.org/RelMeAuth#Selectively_Displaying_rel-me_Info

#
tantek
"Tantek points out that he would like to be able to use SMS" nope, no longer :)
#
aaronpk
Hehe yeah
#
tantek
but maybe a one-off email address, e.g. for mobile scenarios overseas
#
aaronpk
Yeah I guess the concept still applies to email or other things
#
tantek
editing
#
aaronpk
That whole Issues section that says the issues are about the spec are actually about the service lol
#
tantek
I'll leave that editing to you :)
#
tantek
aaronpk: WDYT of the https://indieweb.org/projects update? improvement? good direction? shall I keep going?
#
tantek
I'd really like to get /projects fully cleaned up and accurate at least for gen1 (possibly gen1.5/2) by IWS
#
aaronpk
That is a lot better!
#
aaronpk
My other question is where do things like Telegraph (webmention sending) or standalone Micropub servers fit in that page? Or is that page just for projects that are for being your primary domain
[asuh], tantek and [tantek] joined the channel
#
tantek
aaronpk: I put a section near the top for utilities to add or connect your site to like Bridgy and Webmention.io: "Connect With Services"

I tend to agree with this, and wondering if it’s more appropriate for /projects or /plurality: https://twitter.com/davemorin/status/977046646822354945

Has anyone who has received VC funding has any experience with this problem? https://twitter.com/ainakosiboyie/status/977268428485443584

@ainakosiboyie
@davemorin @lorakolodny @path Which is something most VCs will frown in a founder doing. #privilege

Overwhelmed by requests to rebuild a better @Path. Considering doing it. If you are interested in working on such an idea, DM me. Let's see if a passionate team forms. If so, we'll do it.
