BinyaminGreen[m] Just fyi, #microformats:libera.chat isn't loading for me. I'm using element (matrix).
#
BinyaminGreen[m] By not loading, I mean, I'm not able to join.
[tantek] joined the channel
#
BinyaminGreen[m] weird. It finally loaded. Took about 5 full minutes.

#
BinyaminGreen[m] I've been experimenting with Element's new idea of spaces. The concept is, it groups various channels under a single icon. I made an indieweb space. Is it okay if I post an invite link?

#
aaronpk I don't know anything about matrix or spaces or why a room might not sync
#
BinyaminGreen[m] Thank you. How do you feel about the invite link?

aaronpk i don't know what the implications are of that so i will leave that to someone else

[jacky] [Binyamin_Green] do you have a link about how those things work?

aaronpk OwnCast << how to install on Linode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWE7HGJQI_4
#
aaronpk Loqi?
#
aaronpk ping
#
Loqi pong
#
aaronpk what is OwnCast?
#
Loqi OwnCast is a self-hosted livestreaming application that can be used to livestream from your own website https://indieweb.org/OwnCast
#
aaronpk OwnCast << test
#
Loqi ok, I added "[[test]]" to the "See Also" section of /OwnCast https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=76067&oldid=75954
#
aaronpk weird

#
barnaby doesn’t the << syntax only work within a few minute window after a “what is”?
#
Loqi Sorry, I couldn't find a page named "doesn’t the" or similar
#
barnaby no problem, Loqi
#
aaronpk no it works all the time
#
aaronpk i'm guessing there was an error trying to fetch the youtube URL. it'll try to expand tweets or other links to include the text or article name
#
barnaby ah okay, I’ve only ever seen << used after a what query
#
Loqi Sorry, I couldn't find a page named "ah okay, I’ve only ever seen" or similar
#
barnaby but I suppose that’s just a behavioural pattern people tend towards
#
aaronpk yeah like checking if the page exists before trying to edit it

[tantek] GWG, no photo from HWC Americas?
#
[tantek] [Ana_Rodrigues] you took a photo for HWC London right?
#
[tantek] also cc: maxwelljoslyn
[Ana_Rodrigues] joined the channel
#
[Ana_Rodrigues] Oh no. I did take it but I completely forgot to upload it and I am not home how. So sorry! 😭
#
[tantek] can you email it to someone to upload?
#
[Ana_Rodrigues] It’s on my laptop and I don’t have it with me at the moment 😭 the deadline is in one hour right?

#
[tw2113_Slack_] Interesting addition 😄
#
[tantek] inspired by aaronpk in #indieweb
#
[tw2113_Slack_] indeed, i checked the chat back log
#
GWG [tantek]: Maxwell took one
#
[tantek] can we get it posted in the next 30 minutes?
#
GWG If Maxwell sees this... I don't have it
#
GWG I should take a backup
#
Loqi +1
#
Loqi Just generated this week's newsletter! You still have a few minutes to make changes, and I'll re-generate it 10 minutes before it gets sent out at 3pm Pacific time. https://indieweb.org/this-week/2021-06-11.html
#
[tantek] awww no photos this week!
#
[tantek] I think the key is to upload it to the event *during* the HWC meetup itself
#
[tantek] so we don't forget
#
[tantek] and everyone else in the HWC meetup can encourage the organizer to do so 🙂
#
aaronpk i tried to make it so easy to upload photos too!
#
[tantek] you did! maybe we need a big red banner at the top for the organizer PLEASE UPLOAD PHOTO during & after the meetup until a photo gets uploaded
#
[tantek] oooh maybe that's an explicit feature to add, "organizer claiming"
#
[tantek] so e.g. GWG creates the event, but then the facilitator can "claim" the event as facilitator/organizer
#
[tantek] then they get the additional photo upload nag lol
#
Loqi Generated the final version of the newsletter! This will be sent out at 3pm Pacific time. https://indieweb.org/this-week/2021-06-11.html
#
[tantek] or nag everyone who RSVPs to the event, and assume collective social pressure will get the facilitator to upload 🙂
#
GWG [tantek]: I was just going to suggest more than one person takes a screenshot for redundancy
#
[tantek] GWG, ironically I think that may result in worse results due to the "I thought you had it" phenom
#
@indiewebcamp This week in the #indieweb https://indieweb.org/this-week/2021-06-11.html (twitter.com/_/status/1403475887035535360)
#
GWG [tantek]: Either way, at least we remembered to take one. Half the battle
#
aaronpk when i'm on i usually take one myself as a backup but i don't tell anyone :)
[aciccarello] joined the channel
#
[tantek] ^ that's the better strategy
#
[tantek] except do so same time as the host/facilitator, so folks have had the chance to opt out
#
aaronpk right
#
aaronpk hey cool the yellow banner in the newsletter worked in gmail
#
[Ana_Rodrigues] I just managed to upload it but didn’t make it on time. 😞 I’m going to set an alarm for next time. sadly this time I broke routine because I went on a small holiday break.
