This brings to mind our idea for a 24 hour IndieWeb marathon 😄

weird, I'm getting a 404 from indiewnews "could not fetch https://news.indieweb.org/en/ '404'" when attempting to webmention it using mention.tech

#
capjamesg[d]

tantek: i can't help but notice the use of the word "just" in the phrase "even just for the web" in the opening sentence of your choosing-tools post. 👀 😂
#
[tantek]
[schmarty] I was seeing inconsistent loads of indie news myself and so was http://mention.tech
#
[tantek]
Re: just, not ok to trivialize the web? 😆
#
[schmarty]
I think webdev is hard, haha
#
[tantek]
Ah I see the ambiguity. I was sarcastically trivializing the tools themselves for "only" having to worry about the web, not web dev itself.

[schmarty] reload, post updated. "just" removed from opening sentence. I disliked the ambiguity that potentially made someone feel trivialized (or a hard skill trivialized)
#
[tantek]
I believe the remaining uses of "just" in the post are ok / accurate. Definitely LMK if you read them otherwise!
#
[schmarty]
tantek++ thanks!

[schmarty]++ for pointing out the potential for reading "just" in that fashion, it's really easy to miss. thank you 🙏

what was TUAW
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "TUAW" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "TUAW is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
[KevinMarks] wasn't TUAW the one that our mutual pal film_girl used to write articles for then suffered a site-death and came back as a GenAI-written articles zombie site?
#
[KevinMarks]
That's right
#
[KevinMarks]
They kept the journalists' names and gave them new AI faces and mangled the articles with AI too
#
[tantek]
because Google News is still syndicating their articles 🤦‍♂️ https://news.google.com/search?q=TUAW
#
[KevinMarks]
Ouch. Probably worth telling Danny Sullivan
