#
[aciccarello] Seeing two spam posts on the IndieWeb forum. I flagged them but idk who's the moderator. Assuming it's an EU person they might not be online yet.
#
[aciccarello] Oh, that was mentioned in #indieweb-stream
#
[tantek] meta is the right place for the chat about it aciccarello++

#
gRegor Yeah, Fran is one of the mods: https://indieweb.org/User:Fran.fi
#
gRegor guessing capjamesg might be another
#
[aciccarello] Still would love to see indie auth and webmention reply plugins to the forum.
#
gRegor indeed, was thinking that. poked around the Flarum docs briefly.
#
gRegor It's PHP, so tempting, but still trying not to take on so much, heh
#
gRegor want to get back to some indiebookclub updates, and the ProcessWire Webmention plugin
#

#
Loqi micropub has 1 karma in this channel over the last year (3 in all channels)
#
[aciccarello] I'm tempted to vibe code a plugin since my php skills are weak but that doesn't feel responsible.
