@DAtD_life
Any suggestions for what platforms/workflows to use to build personal websites? More indieweb than squarespace. Possibly static site generator. Using something maybe like Known, Jekyll, Drupal, etc?

What is a QR code?
#
Loqi
QR codes are 2D barcodes that have had a mixed success with usability, from nearly ignored (see the Tumblr mocking this), to partially successful (Path add friend UI), to invisibly useful (Snapchat add friend UI) https://indieweb.org/QR_code

[jamesg483]
What is the sentiment about this definition ^
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "sentiment about this definition ^" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "sentiment about this definition ^ is ____", a sentence describing the term)

↩️ I think I get what you're hinting at (the activitypub federated network has certainly had no shortage of inane drama and security vulnerabilities), but surely creating another silo is not the way to overcome this more and more I think the IndieWeb people are right

↩️ Use cases: write something on your own website and let others include it. They get free updates. You keep ownership. Great for: Bio's, CVs and all those things you enter everywhere. Works great with #indieWeb. I wish this was a specification

↩️ Hi, I'm wondering if you have any plans to support interoperability with IndieWeb, or even provide external RSS feeds for non-cohost users to subscribe to public posts that way? (And subscribing to external feeds would also be great)

↩️ we can confirm that we have RSS on our roadmap: https://assc.notion.site/RSS-a939ff6af3724a2aa8e1d7fbf915b9a6 we can't make any commitments regarding IndieWeb right now, though we're not opposed in principle, just not plugged in to the community yet!

↩️ Good to know! Adding basic IndieWeb functionality is fairly straightforward and there's a whole community of folks who would be eager to help guide you there. :) Publishing RSS feeds is a good start, but any plans to be able to subscribe to external feeds as well?

lol the vaporweb 😂
#
[schmarty]
based on "vapor" i thought it was gonna be a series on ever-promised, never-delivered speculation by news / startups / etc

[KevinMarks]
That goes with the retro HWC logo

[KevinMarks]
Which is now double retro as that generator hasc been around for a while
#

[schmarty] same, that was my worry until I saw the image

#
[tantek]
apparently "vaporwave" did derive from (supposedly was a pun for) "vaporware" [schmarty], according to Wikipedia/vaprowave which cites a book on the subject: https://books.google.com/books?id=uC0lDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA79#v=onepage&q&f=false (which even that page is a fascinating read and very tied to social web / indieweb)
#
[schmarty]
well that makes a sad kind of sense!

That's a reasonably accurate very high level overview, and I didn't see any outright incorrect statements upon first reading
