A very nice introduction even for people completely new to this topic.
I enjoyed the * 6 * minutes ;)
I know you like gadgets and I can recommend this gimmick very much https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_FSsDA1zFc :
Not because of the make-up-mirror, the slight shadow is a bit disturbing …

Yeah that's more an artifact of how small the space I have to film in is. Once I get a bigger space for filming it'll look better!

A Thing That Annoys Me: When a website *has* English translation/text, but because I'm in Germany, I'm only offered the German version, with no chance to switch language. Fix this, engineers!

I rode a Lime scooter in Prague once and for the next month all the emails I got from Lime were in Czech

#IndieWeb more a philosophy for the web rather than a businesses. Though many companies (including mine) embrace these values.

phrase you want is "small business"

Also like @bryce idea of "real business"

no apology necessary, we’re all in this together!

I’m digging into this stuff so that others don’t have to.

Ideally we can add an endpoint to something like IndieKit which is easily self hostable. Everything is a little piecemeal right now.

For sure, I'd love to see that.

I'm actually gonna be in Vancouver a couple times in the near future, it'd be great to meet up and chat more about this in person!

more thinking about what to include in the template. I can update to IndieLogin, so at least people can link Twitter and Github to different sites.

Single-file selfauth looks interesting https://indieweb.org/selfauth -- hmm, but not a token endpoint

I apologize for the horrible confusion due to how I named these, but indielogin.com is not a replacement for indieauth.com from a user's point of view, only from the PoV of a website trying to authenticate users.

@aaronpk is Github the only "external" IndieAuth supported provider right now? Other than email / pgp?

I temporarily edit my Github profile link for different sites right now, which is not ideal.

If you don't need Micropub support then your best bet is to remove the authorization_endpoint link so that the wiki will let you use any of its own supported options including Twitter.

If you do need Micropub support, then you're stuck with the current situation.

The wiki actually uses https://indielogin.com when you log in, which supports GitHub as well as Twitter and some other options.

If your site says to use indieauth.com then yes, GitHub is the only external authentication provider supported by indieauth.com.

Yeah, theoretically @patdryburgh & I ran some "official" events a couple of times, but going to keep it casual for now.

More about writing & info management than tools although I will demo my Jekyll + IndieKit template https://github.com/bmann/so-simple-indieweb

Doesn't need to be an "official" event to post there at all! As long as it's vaguely IndieWeb adjacent, that's a great place to post it so more people can find it!

This evening in #Vancouver, come join and work on your writing, blog tinkering, theme twiddling, or any other creative computer activity :)

IndieWeb friendly, I'm happy to do some demos.

Starts at 5:30pm in the @FISSIONcodes amenity room https://talk.fission.codes/t/work-on-your-writing-coworking/431

Awesome! Feel free to post that to https://events.indieweb.org as well!

oh no, please tell me this help article from Facebook is just way out of date...

https://www.facebook.com/help/249817848463304

"Why am I being asked to enter my email login information while trying to reset my Facebook password?"

They can't still be doing this, right?

@Facebook I thought this went away in April last year. Is the help page just a leftover artifact? Might be worth updating it!

I was just asked to remove the "s" in the "https://" link on all my videos because apparently, the tracking link doesn't work? what on earth is that about? any web designers that understand why the "s" would matter?

that makes no sense. If a web page served from https (like youtube) links to an http link, then the target site *won't* get the URL that the link came from.

who asked this? one of the sites you link to? or some third party?

Hehe, Flamingo suite has two rooms. A bedroom with full bath and then the “living” room with couches and chairs. But the best part is that it has a half bath for the living room. 🥳

We'll be next door to each other then! I just booked the LINQ also for the monorail access. Your room looks... a little fancier than mine 😂

Ok I might have missed CES this year but I'm really going to try and make it to NAB.

Who else is going to head that way this year?

Thanks for the reminder, I realized I hadn't booked my hotel yet! Just used a bunch of hotel points to book the LINQ which is on the light rail to the convention center, no cabs required!
