cwebber: from a while ago but I'm definitely with you re: that article
#
ajordan
hosting your own website is very much non-trivial
#
ajordan
signing up for a Mastodon instance isn't
#
ajordan
which doesn't seem to have occured to this person :/
#
ajordan
certainly there are good arguments in there but... *sigh*
#
ajordan
it's a bummer
#
ajordan
one might also argue that you could selfhost Mastodon and then boom, all of the problems this article brings up are gone
#
ajordan
what to do. I suppose this is the nature of the internet :/

loll cwebber I had just about prepared a PR for the issue you just fixed :P
#
ajordan
I figured you were "just" triaging
#
ajordan
guess not haha

I redid that last PR of mine, by the way, that had merge conflicts
#
cwebber
ajordan: oh nice
#
cwebber
ajordan: so you did all the wording changes in a separate commit?
#
cwebber
ajordan: perfect, that makes this much easier to review/merge
#
ajordan
the first one is a strict reordering
#
ajordan
well, not quite
#
ajordan
it's got minor rewording changes just to make it fit but
#
cwebber
that's fine
#
cwebber
cool I'll look
#
cwebber
thanks ajordan
#
ajordan
nothing like the second one, which adds a MUST
#
ajordan
sure thing cwebber
#
cwebber
oh
#
cwebber
a MUST :)
#
cwebber
takes a look
#
ajordan
hence why I split it :)
#
ajordan
I think it's basically a MUST already so I think it's clearer/fits in better this way
#
ajordan
your call though
#
ajordan
cwebber: PR'ing the Actor/Profile thing
#
cwebber

#
cwebber

#
ajordan

#
ajordan

cwebber
hm, I said various things in here but was apparently disconnected!
#
cwebber
<cwebber> Mastodon now has an ActivityPub style outbox
#
Loqi
[Evan Minto] It's not quite ready for people to start developing against, but the latest version of Mastodon has the beginnings of an #activitypub API! You can request a user profile page using Accept: application/activity+json and you'll get an ActivityStreams2 ...

cwebber
<cwebber> aaronpk: we should talk about what we're planning on doing re: meetings / calls for the social web community group, and when we might want to schedule one
#
cwebber
<cwebber> aaronpk: we don't have a line set up for it yet; I'd suggest we do a brief call with possibly interested parties over Mumble, since that's easy to set up and use and I have a running server
#
cwebber
#
cwebber
aaronpk: would you want to see if we could gather people to do just a "proto-call"? Just loosely gather people and do a Just In Time compiled schedule and start conversation
eprodrom, dmitriz and eprodrom_ joined the channel
#
aaronpk
cwebber: sure we can do that!
#
cwebber
aaronpk: ok cool... should I try to gather folks? And when would be good?
#
cwebber
maybe next friday?
