Happy #TechNott day all! Looking forward to seeing you later to hear a bit more about what the #IndieWeb is, and the ways you can get involved owning your data and building cool things for yourself https://www.technottingham.com/events/tech-nottingham-april-2021 (https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2021/04/t4vph/)

wow so no one actually tried to steer the dev conversation in #indieweb into the #indieweb-dev channel 🤦‍♂️

Loqi tried

and people wonder why sometimes even IndieWeb seems intimidating

@JamieTanna
Not long now till you'll be able to hear me talking about the #IndieWeb at tonight's #TechNott - hope to see some of you there to learn what it is, why some of us want to own our data and be our own platforms, and more!

waiting for Loqi to start giving people timeouts when they repeatedly trigger dev warnings like that within a few days. you know, like devoicing for 24h 😛
#
[tantek]
another alternative, adding even more poignant messages when an /Organizer triggers a dev warning
#
[tantek]
c'mon [KevinMarks], as an organizer you know better than that. Invite the new developers to the #indieweb-dev and continue the conversation there.

[KevinMarks], KartikPrabhu, and this is why you need to be more disciplined about steering people to dev and especially NOT answering their dev questions in main channel, you're reinforcing bad behavior: https://chat.indieweb.org/2021-04-12/1618250429145600

[Poorchop] I'm responding to a comment that was made in this channel

@AndyNicolaides
I like the idea of http://Indiebookclub.biz as an indieweb alternative to things like GoodReads, but the way it presents your data back is … a bit naff. Is there a smart way of utilising the data you feed into this in a more graphically pleasing way? https://indiebookclub.biz

what is naff?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "naff" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "naff is ____", a sentence describing the term)

Kind of related, who ended up registering indiebook.club? It was available last year and I remember wanting to reserve it just in case, but not sure [gRegorLove] got it or someone else.
#
[schmarty]
Hmm. It's registered on namecheap with all contact info scrubbed. I had to check to be sure it wasn't me. (it's not 🙈)

naff is a Polari word that's entered UK slang for tacky, poorly done
