@jackyalcine ↩️ I'd lean on people using domains as their contact info with MicroFormats helping that out. Using IndieWeb / IndieAuth, could "allow" people to see more on a person-to-person basis. (twitter.com/_/status/1046611418923991040)

@nivertech ↩️ OpenSocial tried to define an open stand for social networks in order to take on Facebook - it’s failed.

@nivertech ↩️ They’re niche. Not self-sufficient. You can’t build a modern app on microformats alone. One usecase of microformats I’m familiar with, is hints for web scrapers - I.e. embedding machine-readable data into HTML. (twitter.com/_/status/1046779007365255169)

jeremycherfas It is easy for me top be calm and factual because I know next to nothing about why he is being such a ranty person.

@cswordpress I need to write some text for the front page, and link the various post kinds in the menu. And seriously Facebook pages, there’s a lot of hate going on for microformats 2 and you really need to address that because it’s just not cool. (twitter.com/_/status/1046839483319177216)

@jgmac1106 ↩️ We have plenty of pre-made menus for post kinds. Remember you can combine them. So to make my “twitter stream” I do kind/note, reply, like, facebook is a hate machine.
