Welcome to the Microsub life!

I’ve gone crazy with channels but it makes choosing what I want to consume MUCH easier. On busy days I can just mark entire channels as read and ignore the posts if I feel like it but still check the channels that I know contain info or people important to me.

going to @IndieWebCamp NYC Pre-party this Thursday 2018-09-27 19:00-21:00 @DeadRabbitNYC (deadrabbitnyc.com), an amazing 1850s style bar (nyti.ms/WdOpgc).

NYC friends, come by, ask for #IndieWeb. We have a reserved room!

Thanks @jgmac1106 (jgregorymcverry.com) for the arrangements!

Currently microformats are used to add that richness to webmentions. However because webmention is markup agnostic people could start using other data to get the webmention richness. However there hasn’t been a proven better data format yet. 🤷‍♂️

Awesome! Webmentions was what originally attracted me to the IndieWeb. you are right, they don’t require microformats. For them to be their best (communicate post intent: like, reply, rsvp, mention) you need some type of data sitting on the src url

I actually don’t use the micro.blog apps aside from Wavelength. I do everything in my RSS reader and my website. So aside from microcasting, nothing would change if I was on Android. I reply through Webmentions from my site to Micro.blog.

@jgmac1106 @benwerd consider the glass half-full:
* Lots of @-mentions violate policy? Use domain-mentions!
A little work to get @mlb players domains; surely as celebs they have them.
If(when) they enable Webmentions, they decide instead of Twitter!

There’s a great article about Webmentions on A List Apart, if you haven’t read it: https://alistapart.com/article/webmentions-enabling-better-communication-on-the-internet

Great question! There are definitely a bunch of specs, but many of them attempt to solve some issue among several implementations before they become a spec. As far as Microformats, the IndieWeb community uses it a lot because it enables one of the biggest features among IndieWeb enabled websites: Webmentions.

@szarka There is no trade-off.

Why frame as “common platform” OR “federated community” when you can do BOTH?
