    Is there a YouTube version of this? My Adobe is telling me to install Flash and I don't really want to do that.

    Working out the glitches of my monthly updates newsletter for May, so I can send out the first copy. Hopefully it’ll all be ready in the next day or two. First step in leaving Facebook, having an alternative.

    Aaron Parecki
    Nice! I'd be curious to hear anything you learn! I did a little experiment with my own HTML newsletter from my blog posts, but I haven't gotten them to look right yet.

    @aaronpk Yes! It can post to Micropub or WordPress. It uses whatever blog you already have configured in the macOS app.

    Aaron Parecki
    That's awesome! Can't wait to try this out with my photos! I never got around to building a mass import into OwnYourGram and maybe now I won't have to!

    Instagram import in Micro.blog

    Aaron Parecki
    oh awesome! That was fast! Any chance this uses Micropub and can be used with non-microblog-hosted sites?

    @EddieHinkle I want to try Indigenous, but I’ve never managed to get it to log in. It used to say it couldn’t find any suitable rel=“me” endpoints, but I tried it again just now and I get this:

    {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"Redirect not on same host as client"}

    Aaron Parecki
    Sorry about that, there's an open issue on the Wordpress plugin for this, see https://github.com/indieweb/wordpress-indieauth/issues/41

    That is amazing, and I think you need to turn your headline into an actual post and get it picked up by theverge or someone.

    @aaronpk I'm going to have to watch for these in the future. I didn't see this one until three minutes ago!

    @aaronpk Going into my settings it looks like it's already set to use Local Endpoints. Maybe that's the issue? image

    Not sure what could've change to cause this issue.

    Aaron Parecki
    Ooh that's interesting, thanks! That might be a problem with OwnYourGram and Quill not properly updating the access token when you log back in. I will try to reproduce this!

    Taking Quill (https://quill.p3k.io/) out for a quick test drive. Quill is a simple app for posting text notes to your website using micropub (see https://indiewebcamp.com/micropub). It's text only so I can't apparently embed formatted links, pictures or other rich content. If I have this configured properly it _should_ post to my blog.

    Try out the rich text editor in Quill! https://quill.p3k.io/editor

    @aaronpk I've been experimenting with that for the Micro.blog for Mac app. We'll see how it goes. Seems like a better fit than web upload because of the file sizes.

    Aaron Parecki
    Awesome. If you do end up doing that, I would love to see an "Advanced" settings section so that I could put in my own Micropub endpoint details! I still need to import my Instagram photos from before I built OwnYourGram!

    For anyone who downloaded their Instagram archive, how big was the .zip file? Mine was 30 MB, but I stopped posting last year and only had a few videos. Wondering if the average size is too big for anything except as a backup.

    There's definitely an opportunity for someone to make an Instagram Archive to Micropub importer desktop app. Point it at your archive, then it'd go make Micropub requests to create posts on your site for all the old photos.

    Hi @aaronpk

    When I add the first line, this is the error message I get (when attempting to send a previous post to my site - after the verification process):

    HTTP/1.1 100 Continue

    HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error Server: nginx/1.12.2 Date: Sat, 28 Apr 2018 06:32:25 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: keep-alive X-Endurance-Cache-Level: 2

    That is the same error message I get if I remove that line and add the second line you suggested (I'm assuming you didn't want both lines in the .htaccess file).

    Aaron Parecki
    Okay, thanks for giving that a try. We're working on a fix and should hopefully have an update shortly.

    #172 Use stdClass when a microformat has no properties

    Aaron Parecki
    Does this match the behavior as described in the readme? https://github.com/indieweb/php-mf2#generating-output-for-json-serialization-with-json-mode See also this issue which looks like the same thing but for `rels` https://github.com/indieweb/php-mf2/issues/29

    🔖 camelcamelcamel for Amazon Price tracking

    Aaron Parecki
    I use that all the time! It's very helpful to be able to tell whether a "sale" is actually a good deal.

    A potential manual way: have a !snooze command that blacklists a string for e.g. 24 hours.

    Aaron Parecki
    !snooze is not a bad idea, that gives people the ability to make the decision about what to filter.

    I do have some code that Loqi uses to kick people out of the IRC room when they spam it that might also work here, but I'd be worried about too much false positive filtering. It looks at a normalized version of the text (lowercase, no whitespace or punctuation, minus URLs) and could reject tweets that match an existing one found in the last 24 hours. That would have stopped a bunch of these from coming through.

    @aaronpk This is a privilege that I enjoy far more than many programmers... thanks for the reminder.

    Aaron Parecki
    Yes, I learned this the hard way two years ago. I was blissfully unaware of this privilege up until that point.
