Gargron: yeah, what ajordan said... I'd just do them as html using <img> ?
#
cwebber2
I guess since the xhtml dream died (:teardrop:) adding a machine-readable custom property for an emoji name is unlikely to work
#
xmpp-social
[ajordan] Lol XHTML

emoji is pretty much the opposite of semantics. might as well mark up random entropy. same result.
#

could tags be used like for hashtags and mentions? "tag":[ { "type":"Emoji", "href":"http://emoji.uri/my_custom_emoji.png", "name":":custom_emoji:"}] ?

Custom emoji is essentially sharing arbitrary images so maybe the solution is to denote that an image in a post should be styled inline with the text

I want to at some point have emoji reactions like on Slack, but that would be an extension for sure. So like likes, but the reaction is an emoji

<cwebber2> I guess since the xhtml dream died (:teardrop:) adding a machine-readable custom property for an emoji name is unlikely to work <-- <img data-emoji="foo" src="https://../">?

csarven: emotionml is very interesting. It seems they were developing it at the exact same time that I developed my ontology. Good news is it seems my info can be encoded using these standard without loss (I think)

Or you can just do it with webmention ;-) https://indieweb.org/reacji

I use emojis in Tweets to paint the information to catch eyeballs. I not so secretly hate emojis
#
csarven
Slack has this react with Twitter thing. I don't understand anything anymore. Clearly getting old.

[ajordan] csarven: I used to hate emoji because I feel like they don't belong in Unicode but now I'm completely hooked on them so I don't know how to feel :P
#
Gargron
oh-oh, i am looking at the implementation report template.md and it has things like "MUST use application/ld+json; profile="blahblah"" for things. mastodon accepts that mime type but i dont think i use it in response headers or request headers, i just use application/activity+json, is that a problem?

cwebber2: hi!
#
Gargron
can you hop on mumble for a little bit?
#
cwebber2
Gargron: I can do so, gimme a sec to hook up my mic
#
erincandescent
Gargron, cwebber2: Hmm, the spec doesn't /specifically/ state what content type is to be used for server-to-server requests. It probably should
#
cwebber2
erincandescent: ?
#
cwebber2
erincandescent: I think it does say so?
#
erincandescent
I can't see anything saying so in delivery, just that it should POST it
#
erincandescent
Content types for requests are only specified in 6. client-to-server interactions
#
cwebber2
erincandescent: hm, could you open a bug please?
#
cwebber2
erincandescent: if that's true it's an oversight and we should fix it
#
xmpp-social
[ajordan] Lol, another normative change ?
#
cwebber2
maybe... it might just be seen as an correction to an error in the spec
#
xmpp-social
[ajordan] Although I guess we're just clarifying requirements which we've done before
#
cwebber2
since I think all implementers already read it that way
#
xmpp-social
[ajordan] Yeah exactly
#
xmpp-social
[ajordan] Jinx ;)
