@rrlevering ↩️ Wow, those numbers are so different from what I see in usage, they must not go very deep on those domains. I wish microformats was that dead sometimes, it would make some of our handling code a lot simpler. :). (twitter.com/_/status/1582464835584827392)

Loqi [@rrlevering] Oh Microdata....why do you give me so many problems....human readable HTML annotation and machine-readable http://schema.org specs are always at odds

#
[tantek] Who knows if that tool they used for parsing in that chart report actually parse for mf2
#
[tantek] Also that reply from Ryan Levering is essentially saying their own crawls see a lot more microformats than that chart claims to see
#
[tantek] (per his tweets it looks like he works for Google)
#
capjamesg The Web Almanac should release the structured data chapter soon.
#
capjamesg There is some data in there about microformats usage.
#
[tantek] capjamesg, do you know the methodology / code used by "The Web Almanac"?
#
capjamesg It's this one https://almanac.httparchive.org/en/2022/
#
[tantek] capjamesg, how would you verify that they are using a compliant (passing tests) mf2 parser to come up with microformats usage?
#
capjamesg Good question.
#
capjamesg I can ask.

#
[snarfed] even if they were only looking at mf1, wordpress includes mf1 by default, so .4% of top 10M sites seems almost certainly wrong
#
capjamesg You can join the Slack if you are interested: https://httparchive.org/about

capjamesg (link at the bottom of the main content of the page)
#
capjamesg I'm not involved, just following when it will be released.
