#
[tantek] Social media threads sometimes seem lazier than even email threads. Meta point on the composite stream / feed thread that [KevinMarks] brought up in #indieweb-dev
#
[tantek] In both cases, why is it that people (first) think they have a unique observation that no one else could have possibly thought about (and more?) and possibly even written something down?
#
[tantek] It's like Google Search etc is right there
#
jacky perhaps there's no incentive to check before posting?
#
[tantek] lol or maybe some of us obsess so much before posting we post a lot less 😅
#
jacky obsess over posting over making sure what they're posting is worth posting? (if the former, I can def see that)
#
[tantek] Or how much time (non zero) do you spend searching for something before posting about it

Loqi aaronpk has 50 karma in this channel over the last year (139 in all channels)
#
Loqi does a happy dance!
#
aaronpk so the chat channel is gone from slack and discord, how should we handle it for IRC?

aaronpk 🚨🚨 NEW CHAT CHANNELS ARE LIVE 🚨🚨
#
[tantek] aaronpk, some notes for how to handle the prior -chat channel are in the proposal discussion
#
[tantek] e.g. I'm still of the opinion that you leave it alone so people's legacy bots that were not paying attention just keeping quietly doing their thing there
#
[tantek] and are frankly not explicitly error alerted to go look for other channels instead

[tantek] gah, so much gardening to do on the Micropub pages
#
tantek.com edited /Micropub/Servers (+734) "add CMS + services summary lists, resort CMSs by built-in vs add-ons/plugins/side-services needed, move a few "services" to a libraries/OSS section since they are not / were not live services you can sign-up for and use" (view diff)

#
aaronpk we need to redo the /discuss page to make the channel purposes easier to read, and also should include the text for the channel topics in IRC/Discord/Slack
#
aaronpk this section is just very hard to parse https://indieweb.org/discuss#Chat_Channels_Purposes
#
aaronpk i think for two reasons:
#
aaronpk 1) the main #indieweb channel description takes up almost a whole screen so it's not obvious there are more sections at first
#
aaronpk 2) the short name header followed by bold channel name with slack name in parens is very visually cluttered

#
[tantek] I mean it's typical wiki accretion. People are much better at writing a lot, lengthy words etc., then they are at summarizing without losing key points. So it requires good writers to wiki garden

#
aaronpk ooh should those notifications go into the new #indieweb-events channel?
#
[tantek] Events.indieweb notifications would make sense in the events channel yeah!

#
aaronpk ooh i bet there are a bunch of countdowns set in the old channel
#
aaronpk i think the new #indieweb-cafe channel is analogous enough that I will move them over
#
[tantek] yeah that works
