I love this idea of putting stuff into only the feed, like little Easter eggs. I probably wouldn't do it for full posts but I wonder if maybe I would for little microinteractions like replies or likes.
#
[Al_Abut]
Could be a solution for integrating with other sites more without cluttering mine. Interesting thought experiment…

Going to start an h-feed club for the lulz
#
[tantek]1
Maybe I'll make a page that's an h-feed of h-feed club members that you can subscribe to in your social reader

Turtles all the way down…
#
[Al_Abut]
I know it’s not hidden in exactly the same way because an h-feed is by definition already on the web, but my plan for migrating away from rss to atom is to have the h-feed page be hidden from autodiscovery, and the microformat page only available for a few friends with social readers. Not truly private as in password-protected, but more like unlisted, so security via obscurity.
#
[Al_Abut]
Would that count as an H-Feed Club?
#
[tantek]1
Definitely
#
[tantek]1
My /daylists page with h-feed is similarly unlinked from anywhere else on my page
#
[tantek]1
on my site*

We can tell people h-feed stands for hidden feed lol

I have posts on my site that aren't in my h-feed, but that's generally because I forgot to add them

what is a watch page?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "watch page" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "watch page is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[artlung]
what is MRSS?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "MRSS" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "MRSS is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[artlung]
(not adding those, just encountered them in some google documentation and was curious)

aaronpk
ok working on hopefully the last cleanup of the IRC channel modes to get things back to normal
#
[tantek]
[artlung] another alternative is if you think they're useful to the community and there's a page for a broader term, make a new subsection in that page and create a redirect from the specific term to that subsection
#
[artlung]
If they go anywhere it'll be in [[video]] possibly, but too preliminary to know that yet. maybe reels.

what is an alias
#
Loqi
An alias in the context of the IndieWeb could be a nickname, often unrelated to an actual name, perhaps used as a username on silos or chat-names, or possibly a DNS ALIAS record https://indieweb.org/alias
#
[tantek]
^ [Al_Abut] that page (in particular the IndieWeb Examples) inspired by your "rant" about GWG during IWC SD 😂

Love it!
