Has manton's micro.blog been confirmed to be self-hosted? This suggests it has: http://mjtsai.com/blog/2017/01/13/app-net-is-shutting-down/

[jeremycherfas]
[zegnat] My understanding is that it will be both hosted and self-hosted, but I could be wrong.
#
Zegnat
I don’t know. Just read that page this morning and was a little confused. But starts to sound like self-hosting will be a thing.
#
@manton2
@dougmckown Yes, you can bring your own blog and host anywhere. http://name.micro.blog is just a nice default. More portable than /name.

not sure if I got that # right
#
sebsel
"Will: Thanks! It's not downloadable software. Instead, the book is about how to use existing software like WordPress, Jekyll, and others to get started with microblogging, and Micro.blog helps tie everything together with a timeline UI, cross-posting, APIs, and apps. If you don't want to use other tools, you can also let Micro.blog handle everythi
#
sebsel
ng and it will host a microblog for you."
#
sebsel
Sounds like you get the domain .micro.blog?
#
Zegnat
I think the confusion here is if it will be hosted on micro.blog but lets me bring my own domain name, or if it lets me download the micro.blog software and self-host.
#
Zegnat
So far I haven’t seen a decisive answer

sebsel, re internationalisation, I now have a post using the hreflang attribute: https://licit.li/587a1a885766a
#
sebsel
oh, nice!
#
sebsel
(just sad that the user won't notice anything until (s)he clicks...)
#
Zegnat
That’s a styling issue. I might add a flag icon whenever the link’s hreflang != the post’s lang.
#
Zegnat
On the todo list.

#
sebsel
you could use emoji...

#
sebsel
a[hreflang=nl]::after {content: ' \01F1F3\01F1F1';} < that's NL :D
#
sebsel
I'm surprised this does not already exist.
[manton] joined the channel
#
[manton]
@Zegnat Yeah, there's some confusion about this still. The whole platform at Micro.blog is not open source, although maybe eventually it will be. You can map your own domain to a blog hosted at Micro.blog, or just run existing blogging software anywhere and connect it. If people want to self-host I think it's a better approach to recommend WordPress and similar tools.

#
Zegnat
Thanks for dropping by to answer manton!
#
Zegnat
How do you mean “connect it”? How would I connect my blog to Micro.blog?
#
Zegnat
sknebel, sebsel, voxpelli, I just launched hreflang flags on my site: https://licit.li/
#
[manton]
You can just point Micro.blog to your RSS feed to get most of the basics. You can also use the iPhone app to post to other blogs via XML-RPC or Micropub. It has some special support for WordPress (for post formats and categories) but I hope will work out-of-the-box with a bunch of blogs.

Thanks sebsel
#
Zegnat
manton, interesting. Just puzzling how we could fit that with the indieweb ecosystem.
#
sebsel
well if we can use the iPhone app for any Micropub endpoint... that's surely usable.
#
Zegnat
Yes, a native Micropub app could definitely get more people to use Micropub. But you still need a CMS that accept Micropub.
#
[manton]
So, my hopes for the project from an IndieWeb perspective are basically two things: 1) support a bunch of APIs like Micropub, Webmention, WebSub, and microformats; 2) get people thinking about owning their own content and starting a microblog independent of Twitter. I've heard from a lot of people who want to start a new blog and just haven't gotten around to it or because the tools weren't quite right yet.

sebsel
manton++ it sounds good :)
#
Loqi
manton has 6 karma
#
[manton]
@Zegnat Yep. To be clear, blogs hosted on Micro.blog will also all get a Micropub endpoint. (Not quite working yet but should be soon. I started with XML-RPC since I wanted to post from MarsEdit on the Mac.)
#
Zegnat
manton, true, my biggest concern is just people switching from one silo (twitter.com) to another (micro.blog). So I really love the sound of your project, but at the same time I hope nobody will use micro.blog and all will self host to own their data ;)
#
[manton]
Fair enough. I can totally understand that. I want everyone to self-host too, but I also think there are a lot of people who need something 1-click and easy. (And if they decide to let Micro.blog host their site, it will be much more open, in terms of APIs and data export. I've built some export stuff that I really like, such as mirroring your entire microblog to GitHub Pages every time you publish.)
#
sebsel
yeah, not all silo's are equal. Micro.blog sounds like a nice one.
#
sebsel
Also: what is self host? I also pay my hosting provider
#
sebsel
So if one can have their own domain, hosted by micro.blog, what is that different then wordpress.com?
#
[manton]
Right. I personally distinguish a little from silos who have terrible non-portable URLs like twitter.com/username and silos who have username.whatever.com with an option to map a custom domain. Makes a huge difference.
#
sebsel
yeah on wordpress.com you can go from someone.wordpress.com to someonesdomain.com
#
sebsel
So then you pay wordpress.com for hosting, just like I pay my host for hosting now.
#
sebsel
The point is: I can move my domain.
#
sebsel
will Micro.blog support that kind of thing too?
mlncn joined the channel
#
sebsel
the overall question is: if micro.blog ever goes out of busyness, what happens? If I point micro.seblog.nl to my micro.blog account, I can alway redirect my visitors to any new service, as long as I control seblog.nl
#
sebsel
business* :/
#
[manton]
Absolutely. You can map a personal domain to it. It will be strongly encouraged so people can move if they want to.
#
sebsel
that's great!
Pierre-O joined the channel
#
[manton]
Part of the publishing backend is based on Jekyll themes. I did it this way so that you can move all the data easily and have your new site use the same files and URLs. (Compared with something like a custom Medium.com export... Difficult to get that imported into another blog.)
#
sebsel
yeah even medium.com a custom domain is horrible
#
[jeremycherfas]
manton I didn’t appreciate that I would be able to use MarsEdit, which I really like, if I decide to get me.micro.blog. That sounds interesting too.
#
Zegnat
Hmm, has anyone petitioned MarsEdit to implement Micropub yet?
#
Zegnat
An XML-RPC to Micropub proxy might also be an interesting project. Though I don’t know many XML-RPC clients to speak of.
#
sebsel
what is XML-RPC?
#
Loqi
XML-RPC is an outdated and verbose use of XML over HTTP to make API calls, sometimes errantly used as a synonym of MetaWeblog API (the most well known example thereof), that enables and implicitly encourages using your actual username and password (instead of OAuth) with client software, thus overprivileging that software, as well as possibly transmitting your password in the clear over HTTP https://indieweb.org/XML-RPC
#
sebsel
there is ^^^ encourages passwords over http :(
#
sebsel
Don't know how to make that Micropub-compatible.
#
[manton]
@Zegnat I've petitioned MarsEdit. :slightly_smiling_face: I don't think it's on his roadmap yet but he's aware of it.
#
Zegnat
That’s nice!
#
Zegnat
sebsel, you would just have to send the information that the proxy needs to login on your XML-RPC endpoint along. If those are your plaintext username and password, so be it.
#
sebsel
Ah, that could be the Authorization token :P
#
sebsel
is not experienced enough for this
#
sebsel
Wikipedia says 'many' sites use MetaWeblog, but gives no sources or numbers.
#
sebsel
WP is big for sure.
#
Zegnat
Yeah, so, when I say XML-RPC, I probably mean MetaWeblog.
#
Zegnat
Or I am just mixing up all those blogging standards.
#
sebsel
no, it's even in the dfn above ^^^ :)
#
Zegnat
Oh right, read right over that
#
KevinMarks_
@sebsel - using country flags to mean language isn't a good idea. Countries are imperfectly multilingual too.
#
sebsel
I already had this with mapping both nl-BE and fr-BE to Belgium, which defeated the purpose.
#
sebsel
what is a good way to represent language as an icon?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "good way to represent language as an icon" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
KevinMarks_
I don't think there is one
#
sebsel
meanwhile, country flags are used quite a lot to indicate language :/
#
Zegnat
I think using flags for language is acceptable in that people have come to understand languages expressed by flags online
#
KevinMarks_
I know, but it is saying the wrong thing. This is more obvious in countries with multiple official languages like Belgium and Switzerland and the UK, but still awkward.
#
KevinMarks_
When choosing a language, show its name in the language you're choosing. When indicating an other language excerpt, show the name in the containing language?
#
sebsel
yeah, researching http://nmbs.be (the railroads) they use textual links
#
sebsel
fnac.be autodetects
#
sebsel
tries to think of Belgian things
#
sebsel
ah fnac uses 'nl' and 'fr' to.
#
KevinMarks_
Amazon.ch used to make you use German
#
Zegnat
From -dev: I don’t think you would ever use the Swiss or Belgian flags. The Belgians are in the habit themselves of using the Dutch flag for Dutch and French flag for French.
#
sebsel
Zegnat I thought so, but I can't find examples online
#
Zegnat
Hmm, I’ll have to go searching then
#
sebsel
I had fnac and the railroads.
#
sebsel
http://www.hema.be/ > two Belgian flags with the names of the languages.
#
Zegnat
Also, for multilingual state such as UK, I think the Union Jack is pretty much assumed to mean English. You could use the localised flags for other languages such as Welsh.
#
Zegnat
Ha, that is confusing!
#
sebsel
what is lang?
#
Loqi
language may refer to human (or natural) languages or computer (often programming) languages https://indieweb.org/lang
#
sebsel
we should document these findings :P I assumed flags where widely used, but without examples we can't say
#
Loqi
I agree
ncollig_ joined the channel
#
sebsel
hm this also overlaps with /i18n
#
Zegnat
The use of flags as icons on websites is probably more /i18n than /language
#
sebsel
yeah my problem with /i18n is that it's not so much people focused.
#
sebsel
I feel like it's more for companies.
#
sebsel
I am not internationalizing my content
#
sebsel
I am writing in different languages.
#
sebsel
if I was i18n-ing I would translate each post etc.
#
KevinMarks_
And you then end up with the monoglot assumption again.
#
Zegnat
True. /i18n is more about making your content international (same content) then multilingual blogging like you and voxpelli do. (And I will do as soon as I support it on the backend.)
#
sebsel
what is multilingual?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "multilingual" yet. Would you like to create it?

Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "multilingual blogging" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
KevinMarks_
And Stephanie is halfway in between, as she posts French summaries for English posts and English summaries for French ones
#
voxpelli
I agree that globally flags don't work for languages, but for Swedish it luckily enough does – only one large language here
#
voxpelli
Stephanie's approach is interesting
#
Zegnat
Finland has two languages, but I think they too will understand the Swedish flag to mean Swedish
#
sebsel
multilingual blogging is writing blogposts in multiple languages, but not necessarily translating them into the different languages you speak
#
sebsel
is that a good dfn to start?

Loqi
ok, I added "[[multilingual blogging]]" to the "See Also" section of /language

KevinMarks_
This "each text has exactly one language" thing is really Procrustean
#
voxpelli
Different sections of a text and even different parts of the same sentence can surely have different languages, but it will make it harder for people and systems to interact with
#
KevinMarks_
Now Google translate is going all ml, I wonder how it will cope with mixing languages
#
voxpelli
Just tried some swenglish – Google Translate did not handle that well :P
#
voxpelli
Although when just mixing plain swedish and english words it actually managed to translate the full sentence to german :P

it's important to think about the reasons for marking up language in the first place
#
sebsel
this one, kind of silly, but what language is that? https://seblog.nl/2016/02/21/1/sjiphol-leedies-djentelmen-sjiphol
#
Loqi
[Sebastiaan Andeweg] Dis is Sjiphol, leedies en djentelmen. Sjiphol.
#
aaronpk
there's not a lot of value for marking it up just for the sake of it. but it's useful for both telling the browser which direction to render the text, and also for indicating which pronunciation rules to use for each word.
#
sebsel
(that's English is Dutch spelling)
#
aaronpk
for text to speech, you'd want to tell it that last one is Dutch so that it uses the Dutch TTS rules to pronounce it
#
voxpelli
and when it comes to indiereaders – to enable filtering or other action on posts that are explicitly in a language which you don't understand
#
voxpelli
on Twitter I often don't follow people that tweet too much in a language I don't understand and I hold back on tweeting in swedish because I know it might likewise annoy others
#
sebsel
Twitter does actually filter on language in search, I believe.
#
voxpelli
but not in the timeline
#
aaronpk
we should document these uses on the wiki

what is language?
#
Loqi

I think twitter-timeline (that would be a /reader then) usecase of "only show posts with photos/videos from this user/in this language" has been mentioned a few times ;)

#
miklb
yes, I saw the screenshot showing that. I wasn't familiar with that option prior.
#
miklb
just a thought, but radio buttons might be more intuitive there than a drop down

GWG
miklb: Possibly. There is a space consideration. I may table it until after I see how the interface might look when I support https://brid.gy/about#silo-content
#
GWG
I might add a box to publish custom text
#
GWG
miklb: So, you should see more changes in the next day or two. As I said, I wanted to, before I started another new push on something, try to close some issues on all plugins. But I moved Bridgy Publish up on the list due having someone willing to test the changes, which helps.
#
miklb
sure. I've set it up as a submodule now, so easy to test. Any other plugins you want testing on, I'm used to running on bleeding edge code.

tantek, I am interested in going somewhere, but nowhere specific at the moment

Isn't that a reply?

tantek
GWG, that sounds different from an RSVP since there is no specific event that it would be in reply to
#
davidmead
so tantek, do we have an mf class for that?
#
GWG
tantek, it is, but I would like to find some events to attend so I might RSVP to them
#
tantek
davidmead, you have to come up with a use-case / user friendly name for what you mean by "that"
#
tantek
before we bother with any kind of plumbing / implementation :)
#
GWG
Facebook I believe does that. Allows you to 'share' a link and comment on it. But not a full repost.
#
davidmead
understood tantek
#
davidmead
so does twitter GWG
#
GWG
That is a use case I always had issues reproducing.
#
tantek
davidmead, is your "added comment" the part that is important to you, or is the post that you were thinking of reposting or quoting in full more important to you?
#
tantek
davidmead, you might find this discussion useful: https://indieweb.org/quotation#Instead_use
#
davidmead
good question tantek. i just tried it on my blog and my comment was outside the class wrapper and didn’t get posted to twitter

GWG
The goal for me is to simultaneously share an article I enjoyed with others and add my thoughts on why.

davidmead
i’ll have to think on it

A repost is the entirety of the other person's post
#
GWG
Do you want that or just a link?
#
GWG
In a reply, a reply context is a link preview of what you are replying to
#
GWG
To oversimplify it
#
tantek
alright, I did some digging in my own posts, and found three posts that start with "considering ...". 1 of them is about an event, the other two are about design and usage behavior
#
GWG
But a reply implies that your direction is to the author, not to your followers
#
tantek
the one that is about an event starts with "considering tonight's " (then event name)
#
davidmead
i think it’s more having it recognized in the context of twitter than how i lok=ok at it on my own site, if that makes sense GWG
#
tantek
GWG, it can be any kind of commentary, not just directed at the author
#
tantek
e.g. people that post links to various random news articles and make some comment about them
#
tantek
they're not usually expecting to just direct to the author
#
GWG
davidmead, that is different
#
GWG
tantek, point taken.
#
davidmead
ooh tantek, class = u-commentry-on ;-)
#
tantek
davidmead - that's not any visually etc. different from a reply
#
tantek
so no need for any new plumbing

looks like I'm going to start with "considering tonight's ", "considering today's " (about to use), and "considering going to " (any further in the future) as text shorthands for RSVP "interested"

[snarfed]: KartikPrabhu left you a message 1 day, 17 hours ago: HOw about adding response-contexts to granary h-feed to Atom conversion?
#
tantek
snarfed - awesome! I will be testing that shortly :)
#
GWG
snarfed, is your brain available for picking?
#
[snarfed]
kartikprabhu: hmm maybe! file an issue?
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu?
#
[snarfed]
GWG: not really, sorry, on phone and distracted. later, or file issues!
#
GWG
Later is fine. No issues to file yet
#
GWG
I am pre issue
#
GWG
I was updating the README for the Bridgy Publish plugin and wrote that people should file issues for some things on the Bridgy page over the plugin page.
#
GWG
Wanted to figure out how to best explain it, so as said, nothing urgent
#
KartikPrabhu
[snarfed]: ok
#
Zegnat
We have a new Indiewebizen! http://jesselisser.nl has just gone online with an h-card, after our great demoing during last HWC.

checking log

weird: 2017-01-14 21:29:21.034930 W Error 400, response body: {"error":{"message":"Unsupported post request. Object with ID '1680863225573216' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing permissions, or does not support this operation.
#
tantek
manually trying it in the Bridgy web UI I see that Bridgy is parsing correctly: "Tantek Çelik will RSVP interested to this event. "
#
[snarfed]
tantek: is the event public?
#
[snarfed]
OK! not sure then. evidently the FB API call to fetch it failed :/
#
tantek
also when I try to "Publish" manually with the FB Web UI, I get prompted with a FB login (even though I'm already logged in)
#
tantek
and then an error page
#
tantek
then redirected back to Bridgy home page (for my FB profile)
#
tantek
with error: "Facebook API error: {"error":{"message":"Unsupported post request. Object with ID '1680863225573216' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing permissions, or does not support this operation."
#
KartikPrabhu
this sounds like "-dev" ;)
#
tantek
yeah - drifted from user-centric "how do I RSVP interested" into debugging ...

tantek
unfort. snarfed is on Slack so no -dev :/
#
sebsel
Zegnat: yaay! :)
#
[snarfed]
thanks for the report, will look
#
tantek
hey at least we now have a real world indie RSVP "interested" post example!
#
[snarfed]
huh. fb api docs seem to imply that rsvping isn't supported at all. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/event/interested/#Creating
#
[snarfed]
I'm sure it was though. hrmph.
#
tantek
so it was working accidentally?
#
tantek
or changed recently?
#
[snarfed]
not sure yet
#
tantek
looks for his previous RSVP
#
[snarfed]
shouldn't try to debug on phone :P

tantek Thank you. I think that aspect of the #indieweb is very powerful. Improving the internet, one web site at a time. :slightly_smiling_face: Doesn't need to all happen overnight.
#
tantek
Yes! Also it can succeed without having to need others to fail.
#
[manton]
Definitely. Great point.
#
tantek
snarfed heh. I found my previous RSVP "yes" (2016-12-26 - 2.5 weeks ago) which *did* work via Bridgy Publish to FB: http://tantek.com/2016/361/t1/run-ecsca-marathon-relay caused RSVP "going" to https://www.facebook.com/events/204838133269904/

#
tantek
so Bridgy Publish RSVP worked as recently as at least 2.5 weeks ago.
#
tantek
just another data point if that helps
