aaronpk how do folks here feel about me bridging this IRC room with our indiewebcamp Slack, in order to make this chat more accessible to a wider audience?
#
aaronpk I think this will become more important as we start to get more participation in the community group
#
aaronpk I've been running a Slack bridge for indiewebcamp for over a year now, it basically makes both sides of the conversation appear in both places, it's meant to be as seamless as possible on both sides
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] I'm +1
#
aaronpk Slack people show up here with square brackets around their nicks, you can see that in action here https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2017-12-22
#
aaronpk on the slack side, the messages look like normal messages except that all the IRC people have "app" next to their name. their nick and profile photo will be set in slack to the same ones that appear here https://chat.indieweb.org/social

puckipedia tired: sending both a Like and an Announce
#
puckipedia wired: {"type": ["Like", "Announce"], "object": "https://example.com/asdf"}
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] Oh god
#
puckipedia https://puckipedia.com/status/24b18a9f/oh-no
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] Why does it say rendering in the top right?
#
puckipedia it's trying to get some metadata from the server, and it'll then rerender the entire page on the client
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] Ah
#
puckipedia shouldn't differ anyhow, I kinda do it to test the client rendering tech
#
puckipedia I use it for fast loads etc if you are logged in
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] I'm on a plane so it's no surprise it isn't working well
#
puckipedia but you can see the content! :P
#
xmpp-social [ajordan] Yes! \o/
#
puckipedia oh and I can now unlike objects from within the GUI
