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/2023-07-28.html

got one more in there

gRegor, it's a good reminder to perhaps get a jump on some wiki edits before the week
#
[tantek]
maybe I'll do some cleanup/addition now
#
gRegor
I'm usually too tired by the time Friday afternoon rolls around :)

Should we change the newsletter day 😅

#
gRegor
haha, nah, Friday is good
#
[tantek]
the timing is good for sending people something easy to read and get an update before the weekend
#
[tantek]
aaronpk, what might help is maybe start the draft generating earlier on Thursday and updating every 30 minutes as a good reminder/nudge to start adding thigns
#
aaronpk
That's easy enough
#
[tantek]
I wonder if 24hrs would make sense, that way anyone in any timezone gets some "sweet spot" time to do edits etc. to contribute to the newsletter before it goes out

like right now Loqi starts with a first draft at 20:30 PDT which is an interesting time to start https://chat.indieweb.org/meta/2023-07-28#t1690515034935600 and then doesn't generate another draft until almost 12 hours later.

what if we bumped that back to Thursday 15:00 PDT (22:00 UTC) and then had Loqi regenerate it every 30min all the way until final version?

Huh yeah I thought it was closer to 24h already
