And what's with rel="facebook" in some of the examples? Do they actually use it?

KartikPrabhu
errr so you have to publish RSS for some strange reason even though content is from the canonical web URL
#
aaronpk
maybe it's the mechanism they use to find new articles?
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah because they don't know h-feed ;)
#
tantek
perhaps snarfed can teach them about parsing h-feed when he meets with them

hey is https://woodwind.xyz/ the canonical URL for Woodwind?
#
tantek
should we update /Woodwind accordingly?

kylewm++ for the aforementioned notification feature :)
#
Loqi
kylewm has 295 karma
#
tantek
wow that shipped already?!?
#
benwerd
well, it's in the repo
#
tantek
he was just demoing it last week as a prototype!
#
tantek
does that mean web push notifications are coming soon too?
#
benwerd
web push notifications (the non-browser-specific kind) are in there
#
benwerd
I merged the pull request yesterday
#
tantek
amazing
#
tantek
did /notifications help at least? like with design etc.?
e-lima joined the channel
#
benwerd
tantek: kylewm should answer that - I merely merged and gazed in awe :)
#
tantek.com
moved /private_account to /private-account "better search URL"
#
kylewm
ben did clean up the design and make it look more like a feed (twitter notifications style) rather than the list of boxy notifications that i showed last week
#
tantek
nice. does it look good on Known mobile web?
#
kylewm
the /notifications page helped in a couple of ways -- useful to look at existing examples, and also hopefully i designed the data structure in a way that clustering will be possible in the future
#
tantek
could you add a screenshot perhaps to /notifications ?
#
tantek
great!
#
kylewm
I will screenshot, but it's not quite ready yet ;)
#
kylewm
still some stray bridgy markup in there

cweiske: kylewm left you a message 11 hours, 48 minutes ago: urls are normalized for video and source tags now, and the base tag should be respected. thanks for the heads up. let me know if it's not working correctly still. http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-02-17/line/1455745965691
#

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
cweiske
!tell kylewm I switched to delivering my HTML exclusively as Content-type: application/xhtml+xml, and woodwind now does not find feeds on my page anymore
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
KevinMarks
that's very retro of you
#
cweiske
I had a htaccess switch that sent out text/html when the browser did not have application/xhtml+xml in the accept header
#
cweiske
because disqus broke with only xml when I tried it in 2013
#
cweiske
but now I ditched it, since I don't use disqus anyway
#
cweiske
KevinMarks, the main issue is that I mark up my code with CDATA sections, and they don't work in HTML, only in XHTML
#
cweiske
btw, monocle copes fine with cdata sections
#
cweiske
!tell aaronpk, ben_thatmustbeme, kylewm - https://indiewebcamp.com/private_posts lists you as supporting private posts. how do readers get private posts/get authed? Do you give out different feed URLs when people are authed on your page?
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
KevinMarks
how do they fail?
#
cweiske
cdata start and end sections are ignored
#
cweiske
in html
#
cweiske
so tags in cdata section are interpreted as html tags
#
cweiske
leaving only the text
#
KevinMarks
html spec says the need to be inside foreign content https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html#syntax-cdata
#
KevinMarks
can you wrap them in SVG?
#
cweiske
not really

petermolnar
to be honest, it's just a design feature and now that I think about it, I should probably show the byte length instead :)
#
petermolnar
I'm struggling a bit how to show if a thing in my stream has more to offer; the read time is only shown on my articles to differentiate them
#
cweiske
"more"?

petermolnar
unless I make it 3em and pink, it's not visible enough :D
#
cweiske
"more" as in a "click here to read more" link?

I use » at the end of the title; the "click here..." might work, but I do like the x mins to read as a design feature

oh, no, I'm referring to the summary entry on a stream to continue to the article

i want to do a version where you get a private URL you can add to a reader though
funwhilelost joined the channel
#
cweiske
the issue with readers will be that the "subscribe" or "follow me" button only tells the reader the page you are on
#
cweiske
and the reader does feed discovery itself
gRegorLove joined the channel
#
cweiske
which means that the reader will not see the private feed link
#
cweiske
how could we solve this problem?
#
aaronpk
yeah i haven't thought about it from the "subscribe" button perspective
#
aaronpk
you'd need a way for the reader to include an access token when it fetches the feed
#
aaronpk
which means you'd need a way to allow your reader to generate an access token for you
#
heibie
hi aaron. thanks for your support on twitter. already tried the "Fix Issue" Button and get the following error message https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/262007/Bildschirmfoto%202016-02-18%20um%2018.33.23.png
#
aaronpk
hi heibie! oh yeah, app IDs are global, so you'd need to change that to your own string
#
aaronpk
try changing it to use your own domain name
#
aaronpk
(that's the "Bundle Identifier" field)
#
heibie
ok. i changed it. it seems to work. cool. now i could transfer the app to my phone (after allowing access in iPhone settings for this developer account)

What is logo?
#
Loqi
Here are several versions of the IndieWebCamp logo; for a personal logo for your site, see icon https://indiewebcamp.com/logo
#
[shaners]
The logo discussion seems pretty idle. Should we call it?
#
[shaners]
(And I’ll start the logotype treatment next week)
#
aaronpk
i think we were all in agreement that launching it at IWC Summit would be good
#
[shaners]
I thought we were in agreement about launching *some* new logo then, but which version hadn’t been agreed upon yet.
#
[shaners]
I only meant, are we in agreement about the most recent logomark iteration?
#
aaronpk
i think so!

I still find summit an interesting Choice of term

i wonder if we can convince dropshare to support micropub

if I want to post something about it, I can just embed the URI into a post.

that's not a bad article, considering "The Register": www.theregister.co.uk/2016/02/18/remember_wordpress_pingbacks_the_w3c_wants_us_to_use_them_across_the_whole_web/
#
tantek
note how the key points on the home page were digestable by the journalist writing the article, who carried them forth: "One of the core ideas of the IndieWeb is that when you post something on the web, it should be yours. It should not belong – as your Tweets and Facebook posts do – to a corporation."
#
tantek
and reference to site-deaths: "Aside from the basic humanist principles of self-reliance, and political notions of property, much of the appeal in avoiding corporate silos is that eventually the companies go out of business and take all your data with them."
#
tantek
this is a really good summary: "This is where the Webmentions come in: the goal is to standardize a way to link together conversations across the web."

it was written by luxagraf, who is on /irc-people

i think i explained why?
#
tantek
yeah I copied benwerd because I thought it sounded good, and people tend to not read things that scroll, so saying "only 3 min" I think encourages reading

#
aaronpk
i just timed it, and it took 35 seconds to read that post. so maybe I don't like the "3 minutes reading time" thing because it never actually reflects the time I spend reading articles
#
tantek
wow that's really fast
#
tantek
ok maybe I should drop it back down to 2 min
#
KartikPrabhu
I had around 1 min or 1.5 min for that
#
aaronpk
if I were not already familiar with most of the thinks hyperlinked, I may have spent 2 minutes interacting with it including clicking and skimming the links
#
tantek
right, that was my assumption
#
tantek
I do expect people here to read it much faster than the random person that may come across it
#
aaronpk
but how do I know "3 minutes reading time" has the built-in assumption of also clicking and reading things linked? ;)
#
tantek
aaronpk because clicking things to read later is typical behavior
#
aaronpk
i guess what i'm saying is i don't find that useful because I don't know what assumptions the author is making about reading times, so the time listed is pretty arbitrary from my perspective
#
KartikPrabhu
typical behaviour is the read headline and jump to comment something irrelevant ;)

tantek
no I'm not going to read The Register comments thank you very much
#
KartikPrabhu
yup exactly!
#
KartikPrabhu
also putting reading times on a post seems to me to be saying "tl;dr"
#
tantek
OTOH might make for a good case study for why Vouch will improve upon "native" comment systems
#
KartikPrabhu
no one says "read in 0.5secs" on a note
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: nah, having a scrollbar already says "tl;dr"
#
KartikPrabhu
and the scroll bar size already tells me how long it is :)

I wanted to add h-feed support to my tinytinyrss feed reader, but after reading the http://microformats.org/wiki/value-class-pattern#Date_and_time_parsing rules I stopped. this is simply not possible without using a library.
#
aaronpk
presumably you'd be using the php-mf2 parser, right?

tt-rss's current feed parser is 282 lines, and supports atom and all rss types

Just because, that's where it seems like chronological things should go, whereas MYSITE should be more of a masthead
#
mathpunk
but does that mean, put index.html in a "posts" subdirectory?
#
mathpunk
I think that I'm looking backward through history here; I'm trying to have the URL have meaning, but "URLs have meaning, they're not folders" is a newer concept, right, than "URLs are folders"
#
snarfed
mathpunk: kind of. they overlap.
#
snarfed
and yes, posts/index.html would work.
#
snarfed
in general, don't worry about the philosophy/semantics stuff too much, unless you really enjoy it for its own sake :P'
#
mathpunk
so for now, it would be okay to have my whole static site in a "posts" subdirectory, and later, I can put an index.html in the root that'll be my masthead

similar to G+'s warning popup when you repost a private post

when I view your IG account, no clue that is it private

as I follow you

in incognito it says so

tantek
said warning popup
#
snarfed
tantek: sure, will add to my list
#
snarfed
and remember, FB and G+ aren't black/white private/public, they're shades of gray
#
tantek
KevinMarks: I have no idea how IG presents private vs. public
#
snarfed
so those reposts are usually (semi)private too
#
tantek
snarfed: more precisely, neither FB nor G+ support the /private-account feature
#
KevinMarks
I mean should I post to /instagram or /private ?
#
tantek
however both do support /private-posts
#
snarfed
tantek: right
#
tantek
as does Flickr
#
snarfed
my point is FB and G+ both have complex customizable levels of privacy per post
#
snarfed
not just "private"

tantek
there's an interesting variety of private / privacy models amongst silos, and it's far from clear what people actually want / like

let's check webmention.io received mentions
#
tantek
it's yet another admin chore of hosting your own
#
tantek
we really need a clearn & concise blog post about all the meaningful ways that Webmentions are different from Pingbacks
#
tantek
including the strong microformats support that supporting Webmentions implies
#
KartikPrabhu
are all the ways documented on wiki?
#
tantek
not in an easily consumable form
#
tantek
or findable
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe that is step 1

#
KevinMarks
isn't that sil's post?
#
aaronpk
looks like slowest time on webmention.io is 11am UTC
#
tantek
2. having to publish / parse microformats2 adds another layer of work for spammers, and that adds to the trade-off point where it's worth their effort (or not)

uh no
