Welcome, Matt!

Thanks for blogging about your experiences, it's really great to see, especially because it was through me you've been interested in it!

I'd heavily recommend https://github.com/PlaidWeb/webmention.js/ by https://beesbuzz.biz/ as I currently use it on my site and love it because I don't need to rebuild my site to show new Webmentions, although it does mean that my viewers need client-side Javascript.

If you get a chance, come and talk to us on the IndieWeb chat (more details on https://indieweb.org/discuss )

As an FYI it looks like the issue with minification wasn't due to GZIP but actually the minification of the CSS it does, which would likely replace things like .h-card with a random string

Although it doesn't help you, Hugo has Archetypes https://gohugo.io/content-management/archetypes/ to set up these repetitive and boring bits of metadata for new content types - it makes a huge difference in getting up and running with your boilerplate 🙃

When doing similar with some changes on my own site, I utilised my RSS feed and sitemap, as they had a full list of my sites content, and then did some checks to validate that the url resolved with my locally built site. Hugely helpful, although the script I wrote was thrown away unfortunately

I'm probably not the best person to comment on it as I'm used to tweaking my Linux installs and going a more pain-induced way around things, but it's not that bad. It's a learning curve, it's not nearly as polished an experience that you may expect (for some things) but I find it such a better experience on Linux - I use mac daily for work and it constantly frustrates me!

Glad to see you're also getting involved too! https://gregorlove.com/2019/11/i-just-made-a-very/

Congrats and welcome to the IndieWeb!

Great stuff! That's putting my own work to get Meetup.com support to shame - unfortunately not got a huge amount of time to invest into it on its own

Rachel's talk 'The power of change - learning to live as a "weirdo"' was really quite amazing.

It's a difficult thing to talk about mental health, especially to those of us who aren't very close to it to understand what it's like, but Rachel knocked it out of the park with a great illustration of what autism can be like in terms of the reality of the spectrum and the many different effects it can have.

We started with a bit of humour and a funny title, but she took us through a journey of autism, ADHD, depression, and spun a really intriguing story.

There was a great mix of humour alongside this serious topic, and I love that Rachel ended with two thoughts - she realised that she didn't want to be "normal" but wanted to be authentic, and that:

no one interesting is normal

I'd urge you to see this talk if you're able to catch it again!

This is really awesome, Mica!

Turns out my tests hadn't all passed 😂

https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pull/6392 should work now!

I look forward to it!

There's https://indieweb.org/2019/NYC this weekend if you've not seen

Great stuff, Ton! I hope you'll be able to use this to count towards https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com !

Hey, can you share a bit more what you mean? Do you mean how to get Hugo rendering webmentions?

Ooh hope to hear what's said - https://annadodson.co.uk/ will be interested too

Regarding our conversation yesterday for OAuth and API aggregation, I mentioned that while working on PSD2/Open Banking we've been doing similar, for instance with a third party who would register on behalf of a fourth party.

I've tracked down https://bitbucket.org/openid/obuk/src/6b4300bdc872dd55573f3ce9c65b66ada640efaf/uk-openbanking-registration-profile.md as the definition for the way this works with the use of new fields in the Signed Software Assertions (for use with https://openbanking.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DZ/pages/1078034771/Dynamic+Client+Registration+-+v3.1).

It may be worth reaching out to OpenID/Open Banking to see if they've got this officially specified about this, or whether this is the latest source of truth you can use

Hope this helps with your hope to standardise this into an OAuth spec!

That's true, but https://adactio.com/links is also using bookmarks, and I'd see us doing the same thing.

It's something I've been wondering about whether I'm doing it right or not!

This is a great idea! I may have to look at the same.

I'm also hoping to start to start publishing from my site first and then having that send the tweet afterwards using https://brid.gy/

Oh sorry - it is up but only responds to specific requests. I've updated the post to note that - worth trying a URL of a specific meetup event - if that doesn't work let me know though!

Ooh no I had not, thanks for that! I'll definitely be implementing the algorithm like that, instead of how it currently is

Welcome to the IndieWeb, Craig! Glad to see it's helped you think about getting to self-publishing all your content, and I look forward to following you (once there's an RSS/h-feed set up!).
