A space for mostly short form stuff and responses to things I see elsewhere.
@withknown is being exceedingly dumb today, refusing to accept a bookmark that happens to contain greek letters. So let's try here.

Found another person who syndicated from WithKnown to Mastodon, and wondering what technology they used. Probably the Mastodon plugin that is not working for me.
Well, this is a drag. Just discovered that all my Checkins at WithKnown show an error because they are not authenticated at Stadia Maps. I hope I can find the problem and fix it.

Very interesting personal history from @benwerd ... and here I remain, ready and willing to move from one-off donations to paying a real price for WithKnown.

Very odd. Simone got an error each time he replied via webmention to my link to his manifesto, and yet I see each of the replies and each of the emails he sent me to warn me of the error. A clear sign that I should upgrade WithKnown, and soon.
I wonder what it would take to adapt the WithKnown Twitter plugin to use V2 of the API? Might need to look into that before throwing in the towel completely.
Is today the day I stop being able to POSSE here from @withknown? One failed yesterday, but that could have been an error.
My conclusion now is that WithKnown actually does a lot of the heavy lifting itself, with reverse geolookups and so forth. Maybe try something a lot simpler, and send only lat-long
At home, thinking about a location shortcut for WithKnown, and starting with the easy stuff.
If Ben Werdmuller is wondering about the look of his front page, maybe that means that @WithKnown will get a template system that mere mortals can understand ... but probaby not.
