Loqi [@WeirdWriter] A blogger installed something that checks if I am a bot. Since I use an ad blocker, it thought I was a bot, and got stuck in an endless checking loop. I already whitelisted Cloudflares stupid check thing but this is something else. I get it. Having your stuff scraped sucks, and... (https://caneandable.social/@WeirdWriter/116995305557996112)

Loqi [@worldwideshen] @zeldman a lot of that article makes me sad. not surprised a lot of #indieweb folks just block the bots and move on... a better title might have been "your website isn't" (https://mastodon.social/@worldwideshen/116997573824958031)

Loqi [bsky.app/profile/protocolsforpublishers.com] “The easiest way to tell if a platform is open or not: do you need to ask permission to integrate with it? Open: RSS, IndieWeb, Bluesky, Mastodon, Micro.blog. Closed: Threads, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube.” (https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:t5ioiin6ulqf6d75urpmevuo/post/3mrppwsz4rc2o)

Loqi [manton.org] On a post yesterday, I accidentally used the HTML tag <strike> instead of <del>. Just noticed that Mastodon doesn’t display <strike>, so I edited my blog post. Very cool to see Mastodon update as the edit change came through via ActivityPub. (https://www.manton.org/2026/07/28/on-a-post-yesterday-i.html)
#
[tantek] also funny that Mastodon disallows <strike> though it is deprecated IIRC. [manton] they don't even allow <s> which is the replacement for strike. See: https://indieweb.org/sanitize#Mastodon
[manton] joined the channel
#
[manton] [tantek] Yeah, I guess <s> and <del> have slightly different meanings. I rarely use these tags so I had to look it up to remember.
#
[manton] I also checked http://Micro.blog’s sanitization. I allow <strike>, <del>, and <s>. Can’t really hurt anything.
#
[manton] While I’m looking… Surprised Mastodon doesn’t support <sub> and <sup> either.
#
[tantek] oh yeah, while you're here, is https://indieweb.org/sanitize#micro.blog accurate?
#
Loqi [@untrusem] hello all I want to have images on my website to be dithered or don't show the image at first but give them the orginal image if they click on the button below the image (I don't have anything for this now) and no javascript....

[manton] [tantek] Nope, looks out of date! I’ll edit that page, thanks.
