Does operating a bot to live stream wiki edits and warn about weekly newsletter drafts lacking content other than basically ("click me to find out what changed") dozens of times a day not a contributor to FOMO?

Not in my experience. I don't often need to read an individual wiki edit in the moment and they're always there later if I do need to dig back. Handy to see what the community is adding, though, and sometimes request a review here after.

<c​apjamesg#4492> [tantek] I’m happy to help with equipment setup / wiki requirements / remote participation setup.

I wouldn't use the phrase FOMO for myself but I did find the newsletter format cryptic enough that I began summarizing it every week as a podcast (with text transcript, if you prefer to read). https://indieweb.org/This_Week_in_the_IndieWeb_Audio_Edition
#
gRegor
Interesting, never knew that was your motivation for it
#
[schmarty]
I do find the draft generation alerts distracting but I also remember a time before the reminders when folks would forget or scramble to finish up missing content or final edits.
#
[schmarty]
gRegor: my issue is often specifically with the list of most-edited pages, but the IndieNews entries are also just title+author and podcasts tend to be missing metadata about why the episode is relevant.
#
[schmarty]
I try to provide the missing summaries so people can have "the gist" of these updates without being _required_ to read or listen.

Makes sense

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/2023-05-26.html

what is original post link
#
Loqi
An original post link (or original post permalink / OPP) is a hyperlink from a POSSE copy to its original indieweb post https://indieweb.org/original_post_link

[schmarty] very much agreed that there's plenty of opportunity to improve the newsletter

Happy to polyfill in the meantime 😇
