Yeah using a completely separate service for stories does make sense as the use case for a separate endpoint. The benefit of the separate service would definitely help people on static sites so that’s a big win.
That’s really interesting that you handle the videos differently between your stories endpoint and your Micropub Endpoint. Is that for size? Browser compatibility? What’s the thought behind that?

Makes sense, I’m good with starting the stories experiment with it being a separate endpoint.

I guess I mainly post videos to my site that are already encoded either by Instagram or by my video editing software. But with stories it's usually straight from my camera.

I think I'm on board with a separate endpoint as an initial experiment.

I also just realized the reader is going to need a bit more information than I currently provide in that JSON. I'd want Monocle to show the author name and photo too of course. Not sure if that should be included in the endpoint response or if we should rely on h-card discovery from the page the endpoint was discovered from. In any case that's something the Microsub server will deal with, and it'll normalize that data for the reader app.
