IndieAuth sounds interesting as a more generic way for federated applications to allow app registrations https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/

The question is how do we adapt this after our current, extremely similar but somewhat different system has been in production use for around 2 years #mastodev

It’s not AI vs people
It’s not Big Data vs people
It’s not robots vs people

It’s corporations vs people.

social.coop is looking for volunteers for its admin ops team:

I think it will be an opportunity to meet and collaborate with other co-op members as well as learn how platform cooperatives work at a very practical level. See you there?

@mayel @bmez I worry that view-source won't be nearly the same for the next generation, with how minified/compiled/transpiled everything has become

Today I'd like to give thanks for the "view source" menu item in Netscape Navigator for my 20+ years of career. I still believe that "view source" has been the farthest reaching driver of tech growth in my lifetime.

Wallabag: An open source alternative to Pocket

Back in 2014, I wrote about wallabag, an open source alternative to read-it-later applications like Instapaper and Pocket. Go take a look at that article if you want to. Don't worry, I'll wait for you. Done? Great! In the four years since I wrote that article, a lot about wallabag has changed. It's time to take a peek to see how wallabag has matured.

@mayel @bernini @lynnfoster @bhaugen they said they could really use help with stuff and to please open issues about federation stuff. Also I requested RSS and they said they would totally add it if there was interest but that no one has asked them for it before...

@mayel they said no one has yet attempted to but they would be happy if someone did. They also seemed to be totally down for federation / #ActivityPub and sounded like if someone wanted to work on that and submit a patch they would be all for it! (though they said they don't have the resources currently to work on it themselves)
