"The extra tags are part of what's known as Web components, which will likely become a Web standard (or it might turn out to be "ActiveX part 2," only the future knows for sure)."

actually the worst case scenario is that every one invents their own tag+JS to do exactly the same thing

shame the webmentions didn't work

What webmentions?

tantek
kevinmarks: were they on strike? ;)
#
kylewm
GWG: yeah, I use pushover (I think at your recommendation)

kevinmarks
possibly arstechnica's page was so big it choked the parser

Kylewm, I am more contemplating the design, not the delivery. What do you notify for?

kylewm
GWG: non-bridgy replies/likes/reposts
#
GWG
What prompted that decision?
#
kylewm
things I didn't have another mechanism to be notified for. I originally got notifications for all webmentions, but it was too noisy
#
GWG
I'm thinking about a two stage plan.
#
GWG
First, notifications for all.
#
GWG
Second, clustered notifications

I'm trying to figure out the algorithm for clustering

Twitter switched from start/favorite to heart/like? Sounds like they just copied Instagram's UI icon/text there.
#
kevinmarks_
did you see my suggestion for replacing it?
#
tantek
Does seem to add weight to likes / faves being treated as the same thing
#
tantek
kevinmarks_: didn't I already reply to that with the point about Slack? ;)
#
kevinmarks_
I'm going to write it up properly
#
tantek
!tell kevinmarks, KartikPrabhu lol re: criticism of "isomorphic" code and "isn't actually much code that can or should be re-used in the two environments" - I'll just keep coding more of it then to disprove that statement with my open source existence proof. :)

#
tantek
kevinmarks - your replacement suggestion would/could be more interesting if you provided suggested UX for summarizing its display perhaps similar to the summary displays that Slack provides
#
tantek
e.g. Slack doesn't just show a series of "so-and-so said * in reply to ...", Slack shows a * character with a count on it. Perhaps single-character replies could be facepiled.
#
kevinmarks_
well, if we treat them as a kind of reply they are
#
tantek
no need to do any special "kind of" treatment
#
kevinmarks_
if you look at how we are converging webmentions, we have heart/star and recycle
#
tantek
my point is the receiving site can already algorithmically present different UI for one-character replies
#
tantek
no need for special post type etc.
#
kevinmarks_
if I like one of your posts with woodwind/known we get this already, almost
#
kevinmarks_
note the presentation there
#
tantek
hey we have an algorithm for dealing with that
#
kevinmarks_
the plaintext presentation is star and link
#
kevinmarks_
the twitter presentation is star above a quoted version
#
tantek
hey that's a neat hack
#
tantek
you could add a bit more prose for friendlier, more FB-like prose
#
tantek
🌟 likes a photo (link to photo or quoted photo)
#
tantek
🌟likes (link to note or quoted note)
#
kevinmarks_
the @name 🌟 form is bad
#
kevinmarks_
but Holly replying by quoting made me realise how to do it right
#
tantek
and all of a sudden I'm seeing heart icons in my Twitter web UI
#
tantek
guess I better update my webaction UI on my permalinks!
#
tantek
funny thing is, I was already using the prose "Like" instead of "Favorite" :D
#
tantek
(deliberately)

thank you nitot!

tantek : why future ?
#
Jihaisse
we are building it right now, no ?
#
tantek
as in, we claiming that what we create at indiewebcamps will be de fact for the independent open web in the future
#
tantek
we are building now yes, we are not yet de facto
#
tantek
but we will be because we are building better than today's de facto, simpler, easier, more functional, and more able to replace silo-usage.

#
tantek
once? wouldn't doint it again make it twice?
#
tantek
creating once also sounds like creating the past which doesn't make sense
#
KartikPrabhu
once as in "the Web that once was"
#
KartikPrabhu
also a play on "The Once and Future King"
#
KartikPrabhu
I think a lot of people who "miss" the past Web without silos would be attracted to in the indieweb idea
#
tantek
I'd rather focus on attracting new participants rather than those that reminisce
#
KartikPrabhu
fiar enough

well I did web stuff before silos if Blogger counts

i still don't even understand what a jam is
#
tantek
what is a jam?
#
Loqi
jam is an active type of post used to share a song that you are recently enjoying https://indiewebcamp.com/jam
#
aaronpk
so kind of like a scrobble but more intentionally created?
#
tantek
way more intentionally created
#
tantek
like, hey I really like this song right now
#
davidpeach
if you hear a particular song that sticks out to you, jam it
#
aaronpk
and the "right now" part is important?
#
aaronpk
as in, it's not just a bookmark/favorite of a song?
#
davidpeach
I suppose it is yer
#
aaronpk
oh wow the profile view is great, showing each year https://www.thisismyjam.com/helloerica

aaronpk: yes it's been turned into an archive
#

@aaronpk Yer they've done a great job with it. The site closed doors recently, but kept it in read-only mode, so people's jams aren't lost
#
aaronpk
now i want to make a page on my site like that that shows my top scrobbles by year
#
tantek
davidpeach many will rot over time as overzealous DMCA takedowns continue to delete silo content
#
tantek
aaronpk: for scrobble stats displays, lastfm still has some of the best graphs/charts etc.
#
davidpeach
@tantek agreed. I ported my old ones to my site today.
#
davidpeach
although they are all youtube iframes so same probs i suppose
#
kylewm
davidpeach: i think it will pick up your most recent comment the next time it goes through and rechecks syndication links (every ~2 hours)
#
davidpeach
kylewm: cool thanks
#
aaronpk
interesting, most people don't include the name of the song in the "jam" post
#
tantek
it's included for them
#
aaronpk
in the youtube embed?
#
tantek
they don't include the name explicitly in their "description" of it
#
tantek
because thisismyjam already puts it on the post for you
#
tantek
aaronpk: see my /jam POSSE examples on that page
#
aaronpk
not talking about thisismyjam posts
#
aaronpk
i'm looking at the original posts on /jam
#
aaronpk
link to youtube url, quote of lyrics, "Trackish Tuesday 0600" which i assume is an event name
#
tantek
sure - the first line of the lyric is the song name
#
tantek
no need to repeat myself :P
#
aaronpk
no artist name tho
#
tantek
true - I think song name is more resonant
#
tantek
like I said to davidpeach above "many will rot..."
#
tantek
ironic that "Born slippy" indeed slipped away :P
#
davidpeach
i think manually including the artist and title is important
#
davidpeach
so any embeds are treated as enhancements
#
aaronpk
i would definitely include the artist and title if I published those on my site
#
aaronpk
yes that
#
tantek
or at least as fallbacks for the embed
#
tantek
using an object or something
#
tantek
I wonder if youtube iframes work if you embed them as objects!
#
tantek
that way you could include fallback content inside the object!
#
davidpeach
im off out people. prob speak later tonight.
#
tantek
hmm I need a syndication link icon for thisismyjam links

#
aaronpk
no way!
#
aaronpk
it supports it natively now!
#
snarfed
it doesn't
#
aaronpk
you have to bookmark it on your own site to submit it, but it shows up as the bookmarked site
#
aaronpk
that's good
#
snarfed
i meant directly, without a bookmark
#
snarfed
sure, bookmarks are nice
#
aaronpk
you mean like submitting stuff to reddit?
#
snarfed
got me, i don't use reddit
#
aaronpk
digg? hackernews?
#
snarfed
nope nope
nitot joined the channel
#
snarfed
but probably yes. ability to submit a page even if it doesn't link to indienews
#
aaronpk
that's what it does
#
snarfed
so confused
#
aaronpk
i submitted arstechnica even though arstechnica doesn't link to indienews
#
aaronpk
look at the link on http://news.indiewebcamp.com/en it links to arstechnica.com directly!
#
snarfed
i did this maybe 10m ago:
#
snarfed
< HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
#
snarfed
{"error":"no_link_found","error_description":"No h-entry was found on the page, so we were unable to find a u-syndication or u-category URL."}
#
aaronpk
yeah that doesn't make sense
#
snarfed
no h-entry
#
aaronpk
still, taht would be bad
#
snarfed
my fault for not reading closely enough. nm.
#
aaronpk
that makes it open to spamming
#
snarfed
eh in theory but not necessarily in practice
#
snarfed
no wm spam seen in the wild yet, right?
#
snarfed
anyway, nm. i don't feel strongly. :P
#
aaronpk
it's not even webmention spam i'm worried about
#
aaronpk
basically whenever there is a form on the internet that someone can put things in, it will be spammed. at least with requiring you submit a bookmark, it means the spammer has to host the bookmark on a URL
#
aaronpk
the latest change I did with indienews was to allow you to submit things that don't link to indienews, you just have to bookmark them yourself to submit them
#
Jeena
there is a picture right now https://jeena.net/events/8
#
snarfed
minor nit: there's no form on indienews, right?
#
snarfed
regardless, understood
#
aaronpk
I just don't think accepting unsolicited post requests to add things directly to the site is a good idea
#
aaronpk
this way you also see who added it, which is nice
#
aaronpk
anyway, I do feel strongly about this, so maybe I should add that as an FAQ :)

the python deferred lib lets you run code on a task queue with literaly a single line: deferred.defer(do_something_expensive, "arg", other_arg=True)
#
snarfed
PHP may have something similar
#
tantek
how about a form on indienews where you can submit your bookmark permalink?
#

yeah i'd add that

with appropriate error messages when someone tries to submit something like arstechnica directly :)

oh yeah it's only at a certain width
#

an interesting extension of the bookmark + submit to IndieNews is if multiple people bookmarks + submits to IndieNews – then you have Reddit-voting more or less
#

yeah it's only broken on one width segment

voxpelli: true! i'd better check what happens when two people submit the same url

#
voxpelli
wonder if it would be possible to forward PuSH-pings from HTML to Atom versions in Granary? what do you think snarfed?
#
voxpelli
so as long as there's a PuSH-subscriber to the Atom-version Granary will have a PuSH-subscriber to the HTML-version
#
kylewm
voxpelli: we talked about this before I think, why not just subscribe to the hub for the atom feed?
#
voxpelli
kylewm: if I want to convert an h-feed to atom then only the h-feed will have a hub, not the atom feed, and with fat pings you're supposed to consume the content of the ping
#
kylewm
!karma fatpings
#
Loqi
fatpings has -2 karma
#
kevinmarks
right, you enqueue a series of tasks that manifest as POSTs later
#
kylewm
the discussion previously went that way -- don't use fat pings, and there's no problem
#
voxpelli
and even without considering the fat pings, Granary would have to expose PuSH-discovery data
#
kylewm
yeah granary would need to publish a Link header
#
voxpelli
and fat pings is kind of part of PuSH so one can't really ignore it – especially when considering established feed clients
#
snarfed
also probably not a great fit for the granary webapp specifically, since it doesn't currently do anything in the background, polling or otherwise, and probably shouldn't since it's just a demo for the lib
#
snarfed
...but i could see this kind of functionality as an extension of https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/420
#
voxpelli
I'm thinking of building my mentions push notifications like h-feed -> push -> convert to atom -> push -> ifttt/feedbin/feed subscriber
#
kylewm
it's too bad proxying a PuSH enabled feed is so much work
#
kylewm
I will be surprised if anyone takes that on
#
snarfed
kylewm: we're talking about adding PuSH by proxy to a non-PuSH site, right?
#
voxpelli
it would be fairly easy to just forward the ping
#
snarfed
that's superfeedr, right?
#
voxpelli
no, just forwarding a PuSH ping from the source to the converted output
#
snarfed
withdraws
cmhobbs joined the channel
#
voxpelli
kylewm: snarfed: what about exposing another property in Granary that, if specified, adds discovery data for the specified PuSH-hub – and leaves the actual notification to that hub up to the creator?
#
snarfed
voxpelli: maybe, sure!
#
snarfed
i don't know PuSH so i defer to kylewm
#
voxpelli
snarfed: it's basically just adding a rel-hub and a rel-self link in the Atom and the same in the HTTP-headers
#
tantek
hey what was the PuSH related question that Sandro asked earlier?

tantek
we should document that as an FAQ

#
kylewm
snarfed: I think what voxpelli was talking about was having granary (originally we wanted unmung to do this too) subscribe to the original push hub, and when it receives update pings from the original, send pings of its own for theproxied content
#
kylewm
so proxying a push-enabled feed to a push-enabled feed of another format
#
voxpelli
kylewm: that was my original idea, but that sounds complex, much easier to just let the one who wants a hub to be pinged to take care of that itself
#
voxpelli
and only have you take care of the only part you need to take care of – the discovery
#
tantek
does anyone do full-bleed photo/video presentation on their home page or permalinks?
#
snarfed
kylewm: voxpelli: right, ok. that's a significant addition to what's currently just a demo for a library, so i'm not sure it would belong in granary-demo or bridgy (alongside https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/420) or somewhere else
#
snarfed
open to thoughts
#
snarfed
thanks voxpelli!
#
kylewm
assuming your consumer is smart enough to look at the fat ping content and say "hey I asked for Atom, not HTML!" and go and fetch the proxied content itself...
#
snarfed
i guess it's more than demo, it's a REST service...but still
#
tantek
I'm looking for "nice" mobile presentation examples to document and use as inspiration for (re)writing some CSS
#
tantek
tries to hard to bring up a presentation/UI/UX topic among the plumbing discussions :P
#
kylewm
am I missing something voxpelli? It seems like we switched opinions :)
#
voxpelli
snarfed: kylewm: the way I suggested it in the ticket one could easily do the necessary pinging outside of granary – either from the original source or by chaining it onto existing PuSH-notifications
#
kylewm
reads
#
kevinmarks
nice mobile presentation of what, tantek?
#
voxpelli
if eg. aaronpk were to add the granary feed to indienews he could easily ping any push hub specified in that feed whenever the front page of indienews updates

Also, indiewebify.me says my twitter profile doesn't link back, but thats a known bug?

rickardg - likely because of Twitter's t.coing of profile links to sites

aaronpk
i spent a long time on that for indieauth.com
#

you would be surprised the number of redirects people expect to work. when people put in "example.com" in their twitter profile which redirects to "http://www.example.com" which redirects to "https://www.example.com/" on top of the t.co thing
#
tantek
1. sidescroll(crawl) sucks for content usability.
#
tantek
2. the card-styling they're using for displaying the images are good for indicating "this is a preview of content elsewhere", but very bad for your own content. too much grayscale framing noise
#
kevinmarks
if you click trouhg to NYT ones and scroll those sideways
#
kevinmarks
you get a decent full-bleed layout

their presentation is usable, but wastes a lot of space for white/grayspace which is poor usability on mobile

having looked at these newspaper sites I'm reminded again just how much most of them are basically a "Doomsday Times" (especially if you look at their physical printed front pages above the fold)
#
tantek
I know there are just as many (if not more) awesome positive things happening at local and global levels. And I wonder if it is possible to produce a more positive balanced newspaper in that way.
#
tantek
I feel like this is an indieweb opportunity because maybe we could construct such a "Optimist Daily" type "newspaper" by aggregating positive posts from indieweb sites.
#
tantek
I realize that's fairly handwavy - but for the moment I'm figuring the concrete thing I can do is to try to report/blog more on positive things happening locally etc.

kevinmarks, thanks for reminding about buzzfeed - I'll take a new look at it with that perspective to see how it feels

one of the things this "Optimist Daily" would be is very fast - since it wouldn't load so much from crappy js - and instead assemble summary pages on the server

aaronpk - good question re: adding - thinking a combination of submissions (ala IndieNews) + curation. agreed re: sentiment analysis.

You'd need some way to specify to publish the like on IndieNews . Could be syndication instead of category too
#

A "like" aggregator sounds like what belong.io is actually
#
tantek
aaronpk - what's the downside of being able to submit any like post (or bookmark for that matter) to IndieNews?
#
[aaronpk]
It's a question of what "submitting" involves
#
tantek
you could even distinguish them by bookmark only adding the article to IndieNews, and a like posting it *and* thumbs-upping it
#
tantek
submitting involves: the aformentioned form on indienews that accepts URLs to like/bookmark posts :)
#
[aaronpk]
But that means it's more like a silo
#
tantek
how? it's just an aggregator
#
[aaronpk]
Since the act of submitting it doesn't live anywhere except on IndieNews
#
tantek
heck you could *subscribe* to certain sources for likes/bookmarks too!
#
tantek
and consume PuSH updates
#
tantek
of like/bookmark posts
#
tantek
wondering how long TPUTH lasted - since their domain now just redirects to ia.net
#
[aaronpk]
What about signing in with IndieAuth and then submitting a URL to your like or bookmark?
#
[aaronpk]
I think I'm okay with that idea
#
tantek
that's a good way to test the waters for sure
#
[aaronpk]
(As an alternative to what exists currently)
#
[aaronpk]
(In addition I mean)
#
tantek
would you process all the h-entrys on a page that was submitted? e.g. could I submit my home page and have all my "recent" likes act as submissions/votes?
#
[aaronpk]
The whole subscribing to your whole "like" feed is fun too but that's a different project
#
tantek
right
#
[aaronpk]
No I still want IndieNews to be semi curated
#
tantek
a one-time prompting via form is a very good start
#
[aaronpk]
But I could see making something else that subscribes to a bunch of people's pages and consumes their likes
#
[aaronpk]
It would end up looking more like http://belong.io

what is EmojiWorks?
