gRegor from enwp, raised 1.75b, lasted from April to December 2020. Geez. (no, not indieweb relevant)
#
[mattl] yeah terrible timing
#
[Joe_Crawford] Sorry late reply [tantek]... I do my attribute thing so that default iframe generated by my wordpress install to expand a youtube link (and other) link gets handled. I recently embedded an iframe from youtube and it lacks ANY css around it. I added an inline style to *that* with `style="aspect-ratio: 560 / 315; width: 100%;"`
#
[Joe_Crawford] oh! no - I'm wrong. Embed generated by YouTube includes explicit height and width. `width="560" height="315"`
#
[Joe_Crawford] I stripped that and added that style.
#
gRegor I don't think I documented where I got my iframe CSS from, but I wrap in an embed container with relative positioning, a bottom margin (which probably is some aspect ratio math), then the iframe is absolutely positioned inside it with width: 100%.
#
gRegor It's several years old, so might have been before I knew about aspect-ratio, or its wider support
#
[tantek] What do folks think about adding this to the channel description for #indieweb-random e.g. in /discuss#random? "For active members of the IndieWeb community to talk about other things."
#
[mattl] Sounds good
#
[tantek] To help make it clearer that even though it is "random" it is meant as part of the IndieWeb community, not a generic social club
#
[mattl] Yeah, I mean it would be nice if people were really just using it like that. The GNU social channel on IRC became just people popping in to chat thinking it was a generic social channel.
#
[tantek] right, it's human to search for connection like that, anywhere it seems to exist

[tantek] "Belonging precedes belief" - Obama from his current live speech at Obama Foundation Democracy Forum. Feels applicable to this community too. Helping people connect and feel a sense of belonging with their personal site is more important than believing in any particular service, software, or standard
#
[tantek] also he's citing "pluralism" as a value to build!
#
[tantek] what is pluralism
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "pluralism" yet. Would you like to create it?_1 (Or just say "pluralism is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] wat
#
[tantek] pluralism is /plurality
#
Loqi ok
