(Not even manually, in fact, when I use Indigenous + Micropub.)

Think the one thing I do differently is not store anything in custom fields. Reply-to or bookmark URLs are simply part of the post content and easily parsed out. (I manually add u-* classes to links. Win some, lose some, I guess.)

An alternative for Post Kinds (and my—even simpler than Shortnotes—https://github.com/janboddez/indieweb-custom-post-types)?

Well, maybe not that new.

Although not technically RSS: h-feed! (Metadata!)

But seriously, what is really new in RSS land?

Pardon?

While I do not see a blogrolling revolution any time soon …

The revolution’s already here.

Awesome. Used a shortcode for this kind of thing before, but a proper block is so much cleaner. One question: why not also add add_filter( 'pre_option_link_manager_enabled', '__return_true' ); somewhere in there? The “official” Link Manager plugin is kind of hard to find (precisely because it is never updated).

So many folks forget to do this. (Redirect their feed URLs, I mean, when their back end changes!)

I made sure to exclude redirects from my old feed URL to the new feed URL.

Also, my reader’s kind of behind a fake user agent string right now, in order to not see so many 403s. 🙂 Might, and probably should, try something more unique!

My feed reader, current status. Just because. Still runs on just about any hosting environment, still supports h-feeds. No Micropub, yet. (Well, Micropub works. Interface still missing.)

It’s silly, but seeing https://youtube.com/watch?v=LU1TzfhqI94 made me want to get into recording music again.

In which the author comments on an article titled, “How I heat my home by mining crypto currencies.”

[The] intrinsic value, the useful work achieved, in no way justifies the disproportionately huge heat and carbon expenditure.

Reminds me of that lecture on CHP I once attended.

A quick code snippet: https://jan.boddez.net/articles/keeping-my-wordpress-blogroll-in-sync-with-more-than-one-opml-endpoint.

Was wondering why my OPML-to-blogroll syncing didn’t quite behave as intended. Turns out I had this old filter (sync_opml_blogroll_feeds) hook in place, still, to allow for more than one OPML endpoint. (That’s right, I’m moving all of my feeds, again.)

Turns out it’s super easy to have WordPress send emails using SMTP. No plugins required.
