Recommendations on lightweight git self-hosting? I want something for my personal projects that is easy to maintain but still has a nice web UI for grabbing/cloning/PRs. Could do issue tracking separately if need be.

definitely Gitea. Been running it a few years now.

@manton I’m still not quite sure why it wasn’t a good idea!

Two reasons:

1: The only data in the Pingback payload is two URLs. Wrapping this an an XML container that's also doing RPC is incredibly overkill for sending just two values. That's why Webmention went with form-encoded instead, like regular HTML forms, which is about the most compact way you can send two values.

2: Pingback never went far enough with the user experience of displaying them. At best, you'd see a snippet of the text near the link, which it turns out wasn't really that useful or contextual. Once social media started taking off, the interactions there became far richer than seeing the pingback excerpt, so people abandoned them. With Webmention, we're explicitly focusing on enabling the kind of rich interactions people do on social media instead.

I saw a really cute notebook today at the stationery store but when I open it it was lined instead of gridded, and now I know how my mom felt when I came out of the closet.

@annika it's cute. I love what punkt are doing (https://www.punkt.ch/en/products/mp02-4g-mobile-phone/) but they're just so expensive, this seems a better option

That Punkt phone is really cool. If I actually talked on the phone ever I might consider it! Most of my voice communication happens via Zoom these days tho.
