Currently, the format of the tokens provided by IndieAuth.com is a signed JWT (JWS) using HS256.

If we were to update this to be RS256, we could allow clients to treat it as a JWS, not an opaque token that needs to be introspected by the token endpoint.

This could allow clients validating tokens as such to do so much more easily, locally, while reducing load on the token endpoint.

Because token revocation is not widespread at this point, it would enable clients to not need to introspect unnecessarily.

I think of notes in terms of https://indieweb.org/post-type-discovery and them being short form content similar to a tweet (but without a size limit) without a title

FYI in this example you can set this to happen by default https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/09/22/git-push-matching/

Ooh nice! I've been using https://github.com/PlaidWeb/webmention.js for my client-side webmentions and have found it really nice ☺

I'd recommend publishing to your own site first, and then sharing links to it on sites such as Twitter and https://lobste.rs, and maybe also sharing on https://dev.to but primarily owning it yourself to build up the followers there

Sorry to hear that - I think part of it is due to my feed including most things on my site, which I need to fix at some point - if you want to just subscribe to my blog posts, https://www.jvt.me/posts/feed.xml should do it for now!

Ah no - since getting involved in the #IndieWeb I've been trying to use my site as the owner for my content, wherever it's for, and then pushing it out to silos after

In terms of how I get the data? I publish content to my site first, then syndicate it elsewhere afterwards https://indieweb.org/POSSE - which mostly happens automagically

I do this even for things like https://lobste.rs which doesn't have an API so I manually post it with a link back to the comment on my site

Can you not just swap out the Desktop Environment you're using without swapping distro?

I'm not sure I agree. Speaking about your health allows everyone to be a bit more open about everything - one reason I blogged about my ruptured appendix was that it would show others what I'd gone through, what they could learn from it, and understand just how sucky it was for me.

Additionally, speaking about mental health is incredibly important, as most folks suffer from it, just don't talk about it, and awareness of it can help folks get diagnosis / help if they're not aware of it.

I don't think so no. I've done this on my Micropub side, so it stores it in the same content format as the actual post. I guess we'd likely do something similar, or when loading the page pulling that data from Granary?

 Reply

It's the MF2-JSON that Granary provides, I store that as-is, then render it as I need to 👍🏽

I'd gone in 2017 but not 2018, then went in 2019 and felt pretty uncomfortable as a half Indian man. After being so used to diverse and inclusive spaces it was incredibly jarring, so I'm sorry for how worse it would've been for you!

I like that with Jeremy Keith auto saves any link from his site to archive.org. So even if the link itself is broken, it should be possible to find it there.

I like the idea of the site itself trying to fix it.

For some time I had my site fail to build if any broken links were found, but as I interact with more sites, and push more content daily, it's a bit difficult to do that.
