@matpacker There's some documentation at https://indieweb.org/Workflow.
I also suspect that some of the WordPress/iOS crowd hanging out in micro.blog may have some experience with this.Searching in chat may reveal more: https://chat.indieweb.org/indieweb/

Introducing Baffle

Awesome, I’ll get this added to Indigenous’ Microsub help page! Thanks for helping create more Microsub Server options 😁

Webmention enables a LOT of possibilities, at the root it is just a decentralized notification from one website to another. Currently, the best and most common use case is social media style responses (replies, likes, emoji reactions, and listen posts).

Episode 8: Interflux

@cogdog I have a lot of email spammers talking about my site who can't spell CONVERSATIONS either. What's worse is that when I contact them, none have ever even heard of simple standards like Webmention.
;)

“A friend gave me design advice once. He said to start with left-aligned black text on a white background, and to apply styling only to solve a specific problem. This is good advice.” @davetron5000

That’s a tough decision. I can see both sides. On one side, it’s not too difficult to add an “-x” to the properties in the Micropub servers. On the other side, it seems like leaving it the same until the standard is the simplest step.

Sorry I’m not much help, but I can understand the catch-22.

Micropub properties for indiebookclub

Web rings are back

Thanks for writing this up. The standard is stable enough to be used daily but as you said, the features to make the apps (including Indigenous for iOS, which I am developing) excel are still in development. I’ve been able to implement some of what you mentioned (mark posts as read/unread), but others are still on my list of things to tackle (sorting, filtering, etc). I think two things are needed to get where we need to be: 1) all Microsub developers need to use it daily (I’m pretty sure we all do) and 2) People that try it out need to write blog posts just like this one so that we see where we need to improve and iterate.

Thanks for trying Microsub out. Hopefully it won’t be too long before it supports the features you need! 🙂

You don’t have to live in public

I tried very hard in that book, when it came to social media, to be platform agnostic, to emphasize that social media sites come and go, and to always invest first and foremost in your own media (website, blog, etc.) and mailing list.

I still stand by that advice, but if I re-wrote the book now, I would encourage artists to use much more caution when it comes to using social media websites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Quill's event creation UI now has venue autocomplete and a map preview, and sends the full venue information to your Micropub endpoint as an h-card! Selecting a location also sets the timezone offset of the event start/end date properly too!

This just made it so much easier to post events to my site, so I expect to be posting a lot more now!
