@krisshaffer I really want to get into indieweb systems (PubHub, mainly), but hard to find one that's going to be sustained.

It looks like we don't have a page for "PubHub" yet. Would you like to create it?

@bennettscience I'm sticking with open source over specifically indie web. The latter's ideology is too "freedom fascism" for me.

@krisshaffer @bennettscience if you publish on your own domain, that's indieweb. Fascism is something else entirely.

"freedom fascism" is an oxymoron. Fascism is anti-individualist and considers the state more important than the individual, which is the opposite of freedom.

re tweet above: The IndieMark-thingy is not the best way to measure an indiewebsite anymore, I think, but it's still seen as such.
#
sknebel
right, in Berlin there also was also some feedback along the lines of "there are so many 'you should do X', and I don't feel like they apply to me"
#
Sebsel
I talked about it on HWC Amsterdam with petermolnar and Zegnat. They also do 'level 3'-things, while skipping level 2-things, because they don't want to do them.
#
Sebsel
I don't want a self-hosted search.
#
Sebsel
So it's more a model, maybe? But it's seen as a guideline.
#
petermolnar
I never really agreed with the whole method of indiemark; the levels and the gamification feels awkward

#
Sebsel
I'm not against that! Your search looks great. It's just that I don't think I can do that myself.
#
cweiske
did you try to find a hosted search provider?
#
Sebsel
I don't think the content on my site is worth searching for others
#
cweiske
I mostly use my site search myself
#
Sebsel
I don't write useful articles in English. I write about things that I see in Dutch.
#
cweiske
since I also index directly linked URLs it's a nice reference for me
#
Sebsel
ah, yeah, so it's more for yourself.
#
Sebsel
It makes sense.
#
cweiske
in november, 24 people used my search
#
Sebsel
I might be one of them. I searched 'hi', or something, just to see how it worked :D
#
Sebsel
okay maybe a search is nice. My point is not that I don't want a search
#
Sebsel
The point is that IndieMark does not fit principle 10, plurality
#
Sebsel
oh well, I should get my tweets imported.

!tell kylewm if you happen to have a little time, I'm struggling to use https://github.com/kylewm/flask-micropub : following example.py I'm only generating an endless redirect loop, and I don't see what I'm doing wrong

sknebel the flask-micropub seems to be kind of user error: I'm proxying to the app at the moment, w/ http and nginx handles the https; the redirect_url therefore becomes http and this seem to generate a redirect loop

@kevinmarks Using the word "MUST" in all caps multiple times is not advice. It's telling people what to do. http://indieweb.org/IndieMark

#
tantek
perhaps IndieMark should link to RFC2119 for literalists :)
#
tantek
another approach would be to only respond to such threads/arguments from your own site, only POSSEing to Twitter, so that by *doing* indieweb, you demonstrate much more than the person arguing the other way on a *silo* only (tweeting)
#
petermolnar
RFC2119 is not a bad idea; I might even mention that IndieMark is not a hard requirement; indiewebify.me could probably be seen as an update to that

#
aaronpk
lol "telling people what to do"
#
aaronpk
yes if you want to follow indiemark then this is what to do. Nobody is saying you have to follow indiemark
#
petermolnar
it seems so that people believe our wiki is constructed as a one-and-only-truth and many can't accept that those are guidelines from one to themselves only and nobody needs to follow it if the don't want to
#
petermolnar
how to do you make people, who believe there can be only one truth, understand that?
#
aaronpk
that sounds challenging
#
petermolnar
is this the same argument what LISP had eons ago? The Right Way™?

miklb_
ben_thatmustbeme any plans to support syndicate-to query param in inkstone?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
how do you mean?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
it checks for syndicate-to from the endpoint
#
ben_thatmustbeme
and it will show those
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but you have to log out and log back in to get it to retry
#
ben_thatmustbeme
or do you mean setting syndicate-to from the query to the post page?
#
miklb_
the later, yes/
#
miklb_
with Quill, I can choose which syndication target to use. I may not be using the correct verbage
#
ben_thatmustbeme
you can do that now, but i think it only looks for <micropub_endpoint>?q=config

yeah, i'm updating that code now

i thought you were talking about adding syndicate-to option to the query to the create page (thus prefilling it for you)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
one option is you can add a new syndicate-to field on your own in the settings
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but its not great
#
ben_thatmustbeme
give me a few and i should have it deployable
#
miklb_
no worries, I'm a n00b when it comes to micropub, was just curious :-)
#
miklb_
sometimes I wonder how I managed to get it working. lol
#
miklb_
that's not true, voxpelli did a wonderful job creating the option for Jekyll users hosting their repo on GitHub
#
ben_thatmustbeme
miklb_: a few refreshes and possibly a logout / login (or just run window.localStorage.removeItem('mp-config')
#
ben_thatmustbeme
would still need to refresh since it needs to pull down the latest service worker and get it running
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i think that will work anyway
#
ben_thatmustbeme
when i get time i'll disable q=config support and see what happens
#
miklb_
I'm not seeing anything different after a few refreshes and logout/login. I'll try another browser session in a bit. Thanks for the quick response!
#
miklb_
I am seeing a 400 error in error console regarding the q=config
wolftune joined the channel
#
ben_thatmustbeme
yeah, it should fail on that one, but then once it does, it should try with q=syndicate-to
#

i'll probably have to do some testing

i tried to do it quick
