I can’t tell if it’s aperture (I doubt it) but my feeds don’t seem to update quickly. This is me also assuming that aperture somehow knows about websub and uses that to update feeds. I’m guessing that’s not the case @aaronpk? How would a real time feed work with it?

News Outlets vs. Authors and Blogs

No problem! I was curious about that too (I actually use that pattern in my indieweb Elixir library - I should move away from it).

Liked On Owning Data Apps Use and the IndieWeb by Jacky Alciné
So I came across this post about owning data from apps we use a lot. As I'm reading it, my head's bopping up and down with agreement - I strongly believe that data sovereignty is a important human right; especially with large companies actively using it to dismantle facets of society. In the post, t...

On Owning Data Apps Use and the IndieWeb

#indieweb #thoughts

Thinking more about this, the biggest problem with “/“ is querying for pages. As was mentioned in chat, you could have q=source accept an option to only match posts with a certain slug prefix, but it would often be faked because the “/“ is not necessarily included in the actual slug as stored in a database. So you’d have a backend system with logic like “if the parameter starts with a slash, do something completely different”.

I’m fine with it if that’s the consensus. But it seems more like an implementation detail than a full feature of Micropub.

Yeah, this seems like it’d end up being an implementation detail. I’m deeply in favor though of the h=type approach because it’ll be also easier to do a full list dump against post types (and page types). I know for certain that I’ll be implementing that into my site and my client.

Difference and connection

I definitely need notifications back as well as a more tighter mobile interface. I’ve been tempted to “do it myself” with the latter but it’s not my strong suit. It’s probably more of a speed and feedback kind of thing. Like posting takes a few hundred milliseconds to one second and happens synchronously whereas silos can do it “instantly”. I can’t even safely prevent reposting on my site (yet). I think that first, I’d want to normalize some sort of status polling for posts in micropub clients to allow for async posting and then add it to clients I use.

Definitely have a ways to go before I’m satisfied with the stuff that we can do in the IndieWeb. It’ll be tied to how much interest the community has in pushing the envelope as well as building more canonical tools for representing the capacities of the standards set out while maintaining interoperability with vanilla approaches.

Now all I need to do is fix my Webmentions feed and I can do some work on theming.

@loopdouble - just saw your response to the Webmentions and Campfires post - how did you post this reply? Was it just a content type on your site? Intrigued …

— Kevin Cunningham (@dolearning) May 19, 2020
Yep it’s a reply that I posted on my own site, with the relevant microformats to mark it up as a reply. My site sent a webmention to your endpoint, which checked my URL for the relevant reply content, et voila! indieweb.org/reply Also on:

The currency of the spectacle

Replied to Webmentions and Campfires
What other ways can we stop ourselves standing in dark rooms and shouting into the void? How can we light campfires and create spaces for conversation that are welcoming and mutually beneficial?
I like the idea of blogchains and hyperconversations, too, as another form of networked communication / digital campfires. I wrote about them a bit before: doubleloop.net/2020/04/05/blogchains-and-hyperconversations/

Although have yet to actually participate in one 😀

Ended up in quite the research rabbit hole exploring the historical origins of Bi-directional links this week.
Involves Project Xanadu, early internet spats, and Memex machines.

Thanks for this overview of the history of bi-directional links, really nice to read.

Dyou think Webmentions might be an approach to bi-directional links across sites?
