I half want someone to teach me to punctuate betterer, this isn’t coherent. But I suspect what I actually need is to not me trying to cram big thinkings into a tweet. Need to go learn to take up some space on the internet/indieweb for thinking out loud in.

The internet. Where did it all go wrong? And what can we do to fix it, and reclaim it? @heydonworks has some thoughts, and shares them in this video. Enjoy: https://briefs.video/videos/why-the-indieweb/

This week we’re going to use @glitch to create an app that does automatic “now playing” Twitter posts for @RetroStrange’s self-hosted 24/7 streaming TV channel #indieweb https://live.retrostrange.com

What is Quora?
#
Loqi
Quora is a question and answer hosting silo that is unarchived (actively blocks the Internet Archive), and exposed 100+ million users data in December 2018 breach https://indieweb.org/Quora

ok, I added "https://medium.com/daniels-tech-world/how-to-extract-your-data-from-quora-and-reddit-46dea4ff698c article about data [[export]] (courtesy of [[GDPR]]), which also points to using either a web request or an email request: https://help.quora.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000839503-Can-I-get-a-copy-of-my-data-" to the "See Also" section of /Quora https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=75107&oldid=56950

Thanks for the find [chrisaldrich]! if you feel up to it, move it to a "How to export" subsection in the "How to" section at the top

I just put in my request, waiting to see what happens, then I'll add some detail and move it up.

Incidentally, there's a new head of comms at Quora, and they're willing to pose questions to leadership if anyone wants to ask why they're silo-ing so hard 😉 https://www.quora.com/q/quoraleadership

the trigger is two instances of jargon terms within 5 minutes, regardless of who says them
#
[tantek]
from #indieweb — using *one* jargon term shouldn't get you dinged
#
[tantek]
usually a sentence with only one jargon term makes at least some sense even if you don't understand the one piece of jargon
#
[tantek]
the goal here is to move discussions that are unfriendly to folks who aren't steeped in IndieWeb development to the #indieweb-dev channel, and single-mentions aren't that
#
aaronpk
should we change it to two instances from the same person?
#
[tantek]
yes. maybe two thresholds. 2+ to get you dinged, but 3+ total within 5 minutes to trigger the statement
#
[tantek]
thereby allowing single-uses to slip by, since they're mostly harmless
#
aaronpk
what does "dinged" mean in this case then?
#
[tantek]
dinged means you got called out
#
[tantek]
the list of people
#
[tantek]
that precedes ": would you mind"
#
aaronpk
lol "meta" is in the list too https://loqi.me/jargon/
#
[tantek]
channel names shouldn't trigger

Barryf liking the new site ☺ spotted that my reader doesn't show authorship info / permalinks, so I can't interact with anything - not sure if it's on your radar but thought I'd mention!
