#
aaronpk
oh there's no way to do custom usernamnes?

automatically posting stuff which lands on news.indieweb.org might be a spam vector

there's no way to do custom usernames.

I wouldn’t have the main account automatically post stuff from there without approval
#

ooh another question, does bridgy fed support deletes?
#

as in, can it send out a delete activity if you want to delete a post?
#
barnaby
and the weekly newsletter includes things from news.indieweb already, right?

#
barnaby
it looks like it could be implemented by checking for a 410 source response in https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/blob/main/webmention.py#L43 and short-circuiting to sending deletion activities rather than looking for a h-entry and converting it to AS, right?
#
[snarfed]
Sounds right
#
[snarfed]
After checking in the datastore to confirm that we did originally publish it
#
barnaby
ah yeah that’s an important step!
#
barnaby
I’m not really well equipped to work on this due to never having worked with AS2/AP or having a mastodon account to test it with, but I can at least drop these details in the issue in case someone else wants to pick it up
#
[snarfed]
aaronpk out of curiosity re deletes, were you thinking for newsletter updates? It does support Update activities
#
aaronpk
i was thinking if it posts stuff from indienews as they're posted there, it also needs a way to delete things
#
aaronpk
tho before we go there i'd want to make indienews posts require moderation, which they should at this point anyway
#
aaronpk
we've already had a few instances of accidental spam
#
barnaby
yeah and it’s definitely low-volume enough to manually moderate here, if we did something similar to Loqi’s current !rt command

barnaby, I'm confused about the /authorship updates to use only implied mf2? What wasn't parsing?
#
barnaby
the previously implied URL wasn’t being parsed due to explicit property classnames on children
#
barnaby
and the URL is vital for the authorship algo to work
#
gRegor
Huh, I guess I haven't run across an a.h-card with nested properties, interesting. I wonder if we should be encouraging implied markup like that, vs. a wrapping .h-card instead.
#
barnaby
implied properties are great for the minimal case where you want a name, URL and photo, which for many h-cards is sufficient
#
barnaby
we just have to make the limitations and “upgrade path” to a full h-card clear and make sure out examples are up to date to avoid issues this

gRegor
Makes sense

[tantek]1
snarfed, I suppose there's a question of what would it take for indieweb.org to hook up to Bridgy Fed itself, or for that matter, backing up a step, send webmentions itself?
#
[tantek]1
e.g. indieweb.org wiki updates could send webmentions to all the off-site links therein
#
[tantek]1
chat.indieweb.org could send webmentions to every link someone posts
#
[tantek]1
I think if we answer that sending webmentions question, then we can consider setting up Bridgy Fed with @/indieweb.org/@indieweb.org
#
[tantek]1
or do we turn every page on indieweb.org into its own "profile" that sends a post for each update?
#
[tantek]1
like @/POSSE/@indieweb.org
#
[snarfed]
right, we need to decide what we _want_ @indieweb.org@indieweb.org (or other accounts) to toot
GWG joined the channel
#
[tantek]1
@/this-week/@indieweb.org then makes sense in that context
#
[snarfed]
I don't know that there's an existing feed that we'd choose to mirror. eg https://twitter.com/indiewebcamp/ is manual
#
[snarfed]
the dedicated accounts are interesting, but would take significantly more dev work
#
aaronpk
hah wiki edits as AP posts would be funny
#
aaronpk
eh i've already got that written
#
[tantek]1
they either toot their whole page content when its updated (it's an h-entry after all), or if they have an h-feed, then they toot new entries when they show up
#
aaronpk
https://github.com/aaronpk/Nautilus might take a little work to update it for the latest PHP but it's pretty functional
#
Loqi
[aaronpk] Nautilus: Turn your website into an ActivityPub profile
#
barnaby
is there a comparison of bridgy fed vs nautilus somewhere?
#
[snarfed]
a bit of MediaWiki + AP discussion on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T198363 but not a ton
#
[snarfed]
barnaby I doubt it
#
aaronpk
nautilus is basically micropub -> activitypub. bridgy fed is webmention+h-entry -> activitypub
#
[tantek]1
aaronpk, I think having the wiki send webmentions upon page updates would still be interesting/useful. similarly for chat.indieweb
#
[snarfed]
oh interesting! Bridgy is now micropub -> AP too, but realistically just Mastodon
#
aaronpk
i think we talked about doing that for the chat permalinks at some point and decided it would be too noisy?
#
[tantek]1
"too noisy" is called testing/training and finding the UX challenges of open webmentions receiving *before* an actual spam storm hits
#
[tantek]1
what's a fairly innocuous sort of "red teaming" like that called? pink teaming?
#
[tantek]1
in both cases, (wiki & chat), the mentions would be "plain" mentions, and not replies or likes or whatever, so at least people could cluster them accordingly as a stopgap
#
[snarfed]
yeah I've obviously struggled w/the balance of "anyone can send a POST, therefore it's totally fine if I go do it for hundreds of millions of links" vs "don't be a bad citizen" 🤷
#
[tantek]1
[snarfed] right, and my point is, before we "do it" to someone else(s), let's do it to ourselves to see what happens / see what it feels like
#
[tantek]1
seems more ethical
#
[tantek]1
another circle out from this would be, combine Loqi's Twitter search with sending of webmentions for any/all tweets that say "indieweb" and have a link in them
#
[snarfed]
we can do it for chat with little to no code. h-feed => granary => telegraph or webmention.app
#
[tantek]1
sort of a backfeed that no one signed up for
#
[tantek]1
that would sorta happen twice since the chat log of those tweets from Loqi would also send a webmention
#
[tantek]1
which would also be an interesting de-duping challenge for the receiver

#
[tantek]1
[snarfed] if granary follows redirects when retrieving, then we have this already with the h-feed at https://chat.indieweb.org/
#
[tantek]1
we have *the pieces* already
#
aaronpk
the chat logs are already pretty well set up for it. in fact it already sends a websub ping and publishes the line to the realtime viewers so it'd take just one more POST to have it send a webmention through telegraph
#
[tantek]1
the neat thing about the chat logs is that if someone gets a webmention from them and it shows up on their website and they're like what is this? they can click on it to see the chat message in context and even join right there to ask in the channel what is going on 🙂
