↩️ Well, you can augment the functionality of your personal site by adding web sign-in, microformats2 and webmentions. These are the building blocks of the Indieweb. I would invite you to visit these sites about the IndieWeb: https://indiewebify.me/ and https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started

Need to find a different web host for this stuff, me thinks, considering I don’t think my current one supports the URL rewrite module, and I kinda need that for my Laravel adventure with Aperture/monacle (See my Indieweb Journey series as it continues!)… https://cambridgeport90.net/248-2/

"listicle" is a term that should never have been created. Ugh
#
[tantek]
nevermind the phrase "My listicle tool" 🤦‍♂️
#
aaronpk
...wow...
#
[jgmac1106]
petermolnar in his defense Chris tagged him
#
[tantek]
I'm sorry I just had to call that out.
#
@manton2
I had a couple extra hours last night before the scheduled server upgrade. Used the time to work on the book and made a bunch of progress, including editing the transcript of my audio interview with the IndieWeb co-founders last year.

#
[tantek]
on a positive note, the more folks talking about #indieweb, the better
#
petermolnar
[jgmac1106]: there is no defense for building on opml, unless it's a feed list :D
#
petermolnar
I'd rather see foaf microdata xml, than opml
#
petermolnar
and that tells it all
#
[tantek]
wow that's pretty dark petermolnar 😂
#
[tantek]
another positive note, notice that that dw tweet is a POSSE tweet with an original post permalink on the end
#
[jgmac1106]
plurality can never mean perfection at all so many people I know use OPML and have zero idea what a RFC822 date is
#
[tantek]
so the patterns we've developed and promoted are being adopted, whether or not being explicitly acknowledged for it
#
petermolnar
so... essentially... he's part of #indieweb... but he'll never admit it
#
[jgmac1106]
good catch tantek

it's ok, we don't require such identification petermolnar
#
[jgmac1106]
does he have a website? Yep, then #indieweb enough for me
#
[tantek]
it's much more important that people use indieweb building blocks and techniques than they label themselves "indieweb"
#
[tantek]
let people label themselves however they wish.
#
petermolnar
of course he does, scripting.com

#
aaronpk
in fact it's more of a success metric that people use indieweb building blocks without identifying than name it
#
[jgmac1106]
rhetorica, sorry I should not use those
#
petermolnar
although there is power in names
#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] per my positive notes above, at least some of those tweets are POSSE tweets with original post links back to a personal site
#
[tantek]
what is rhetorica?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "rhetorica" yet. Would you like to create it?_H (Or just say "rhetorica is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
petermolnar
gtg, I'll come back to this later
#
[jgmac1106]
my question was tantek, I should avoid rhetorical questions in multilingual communities
#
[jgmac1106]

[tantek]
what is rhetorical?

rhetorical is … wait, did you really want an answer? https://indieweb.org/rhetorical

The posts there are a bit sad on trying to restore wp backups
#
[tantek]
I had no idea WordPress backup/restore was still so painful
[schmarty] joined the channel
#
[schmarty]
WP XML-based export and restore are a straight mess.
#
[kevinmarks786]
There's always reddoric.com
#
[schmarty]
it includes minimal post metadata, doesn't have a way to export uploaded images and other files, and leaves all URLs the same.
#
[schmarty]
it's also all-or-nothing so many hosts will kill the PHP process trying to do an export.
#
[schmarty]
as it runs out of memory or time.
#
[kevinmarks786]
Or an import, which was O(n^2) for some reason
#
[kevinmarks786]
I remember segmenting the xml to import in chunks

Mikaela|XMPP: if you want to stick with this nick you can add it to https://indieweb.org/chat-names
#
Mikaela|XMPP
Are multiple nicks OK?
#
Mikaela|XMPP
It's probably not very important though and all of me identify under the same NickServ account
#
aaronpk
Yeah Loqi doesn't care
#
Mikaela|XMPP
Does it count as a bug or issueworthy?

You can just add another entry there on that page. All it really does it make your picture show up in the logs
