The `h-cite` nested in your `in-reply-to` should have a `u-url` property. That makes the parsed `value` of it the URL, which most comment consumers expect. That's why your replies show up on my site as mentions instead of replies.

Meet Darth ASCII.
Tonight I learned about Maxwell Joslyn’s Sith Lord Challenge. The idea is to draw your conception of a Sith Lord, name it, and submit it.
Before I had even looked at other entries, I asked, “do we have to be good at drawing?” to which he replied, “most decidedly not.” In the submission section it mentions you can text it to him, which made me joke, “can we submit ASCII Sith Lords?” And thus the seed for this idea was planted.
I enjoyed the creative challenge of picking characters that would work and am really pleased with the result. The exclamation point for the light saber jumped out right away. Then the A for the body. I first used a u for the lower face and was quite happy when it also made a ventilator. Add umlauts for eyes? Perfect.
Check out Maxwell’s page and submit your own!

Monday? I have no concept of time lately. Move along.
I’m doing alright most days; some increased anxiety and insomnia at times. How are you?
West coast organizers have been hosting indieweb meetups weekly now on Wednesdays. Drop in when you have a chance!
We talked about some improvements to indiewebify.me during tonight’s IndieWeb meetup. I think we landed on the idea that it is primarily a tool for developers, since it involves instructing people to change HTML. We discussed possibly changing it from a numbered list (or levels) to more of a “Choose Your Own Adventure” format.
“indiewebify.me is still very 2015 indieweb” — Tantek
As a first small step, I wanted to propose that we change the messaging so it’s clear it’s intended for developers and add some prominent links (perhaps in a top bar?) to other indieweb resources if you’re not a developer, like the getting started page. Since indiewebify.me can be some people’s first exposure to the indieweb, I think it is important that we don’t give the impression that indieweb = you have to be a developer. We should provide clear, inviting calls to action for non-developers.
Since it is largely a set of validators, I wonder if that should be part of the messaging, too. Something like “IndieWebify.me: indieweb validators for developers”?
What are your thoughts?
I’m attending .

Given all the social distancing (you're doing that, right?!), anxiety, and whatnot... how about we have a @winetoreach? Let's say tomorrow, Sunday at 4pm Pacific until whenever. I can send out a Hangouts link shortly before. Spread the word.
Hey everyone, out of an abundance of caution regarding COVID-19 (coronavirus), we have decided to switch this March 18th meetup to an online-only meetup.
We will provide a Zoom video conference link 20 minutes before the meetup on the event page and in the IndieWeb chat.

A canvasser for a Democrat running for Congress came by. They asked where I was leaning and I said “leftist.” They responded “ooh boy” and paused. I laughed a bit and asked if that was a good or bad reaction. They said “well, change is hard.” They didn't sound judgmental, but I’m not sure what this means about the candidate or my answer.
I was watching the beginning of Bang Bang Con (!!Con) and they talked about their code of conduct. I liked these three tips they gave to stay in line with their values:
- “Avoid feigning surprise.” When someone says something like “I’ve never heard that you can do x,” instead of replying “You’ve never heard that?!” take a moment to revel in the fact the person is about to learn something new and cool. Let that frame your response.
- Avoid “well, actually...” if someone says something not quite correct.
- Avoid subtle -isms like “so easy my grandmother could do it.” That’s a subtle exclusion of women and older people.
Edit: these are based on the Recurse Center’s social rules.
Hey Brian, hope you can make the next Homebrew Website Club San Diego meetup: https://events.indieweb.org/2020/03/homebrew-website-club-san-diego-bSBT0ZceMIHo
