I don't know which channel this topic is for: does FOSTA apply to a service that is operated from, say, one of the European Union countries?
#
jacky
I don't _think_ so tbh
#
jacky
like its implications are only in the US
#
petermolnar
so... how does apple react to an app, which is geographically only served from, say, Amsterdam, and, due to the Netherlands's rather relaxed approached to the adult industry, if offers unspeakable abominations (adult content) ?
#
jacky
Well Apple operates the way it wants to
#
jacky
like it's weird it's only an issue now when Tumblr's (guessing that's the service in question) been like for years
#
jacky
like ~6ish years

... The issue arose when their filters stopped being able to pick up child pornography hidden in private Tumblr... Apple freaked. OATH blinked
#
petermolnar
it makes me wonder how apple picked it up

!tell ruxton yes the idea is we do keynote, intro, demo live... If enough interest we do an Aussie timeslot as well
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

!tell Ruxton currently the best we can do in search for magical UTC is 2:30-5:30am depending on your part of the Continent

When we’re doing the three column redesign for home page, things to beware of: https://twitter.com/internetofshit/status/1070078990478659586 😂

aaronpk: the newsletter uses one of the big mailing list services, right?

Mailchimp
#
sknebel
not urgent or anything, but I wonder if it maybe makes sense to add individual feeds for HWCs, at least those that don't have their own presence elsewhere? do other HWC organizers think that'd be useful, or more something they'd prefer to control themselves?
#
sknebel
(specifically we wondered if we need a reminder for vHWC - I announce it in chat on the day, but not everyone reads chat all the time)
#
sknebel
e.g. petermolnar, [Rose]: I know you were at vHWC sometimes, don't you have time regularly or do you forget its happening?
#
Zegnat
[eddie] and I spoke about that too. The EU time may actually fit him better than a late-evening for US vHWCs. But he often forgets about them happening ’til it is too late
#
petermolnar
sknebel: it used to be too early for me
#
sknebel
I want to get h-feeds for the events as one thing, but I wonder if somethin that posts or sends an e-mail on the day might help more?

#
aaronpk
Mailchimp sends emails for everything in an RSS feed so we'd just need a way to turn the h-event feed into RSS and then it can be automated
#
GWG
I really wish there was a way for it to send everything in an h-feed instead
#
GWG
Indiechimp?
#
aaronpk
Eh use granary to convert the h-feed to RSS
#
aaronpk
dont get into the business of sending bulk email, not fun
#
Zegnat
Don’t even get into the business of sending non-bulk email
#
GWG
I am not seriously thinking about it

i hate bulk email....any bulk email would be through ti.to for IWCs but leave newsletters up to individual contributors
#
[jgmac1106]
@gwg the easiest way to do this on WordPress is to add a subscription plugin and then only have it send out h-events.....if you send over 100 emails you will need to change your default rate limits

[Yulegen 🎄] I have updated joinmastodon.org to exclude mastodon.social from the picker, because other servers need some new user love too!
