Made some good progress on my Micropub edit/delete functionality today - hopefully will be in a state to look at getting live tomorrow 🙌🏼
I have about 30 open tasks and about 4 more person-months left on Koype core and another month for its auxiliary services before I can consider it useful for self-hosting.

Repaired some stuff in #goldfrog around #webmention handling on weird responses (hello amzn redirects)

Some nice quotes on what the IndieWeb is about, from Desmond’s article Your Website Is Your Castle.
In a nutshell:
At the heart of the IndieWeb is an attempt to unify the ideas behind personal websites, blogs and social networks, but in a manner consistent with how the world wide web operates.

Messaged you my friend code in the IndieWeb Slack!
… wishing I had a private posts story for my site right about now. 😅
Brilliant write up Neil, great stuff on getting it working! Nice to see that it was a case of connecting up various IndieWeb tools for a somewhat out-of-the-box feel
