Happy 10th birthday to brid.gy! Whilst I’m not using it now as I’m (theoretically at least) writing scripts to directly enable interaction between my site and my GtS instance, I did use both varieties for over a year on my previous site with pleroma and it was excellent.

Thinking of rejigging my micropub endpoint so that I can post articles using an indieweb writer.. relatively straightforward change, just need to search categories for blog name and assign to the relevant custom property for Hugo to correctly sort. Should probably have done this a long time ago..

I’ll also update my syndication script to post articles to GtS too.. not that I have or expect to have a large readership but I wondered what people would prefer..

  1. Full article but collapsed behind a content warning\subject, or
  2. A summary and link to blog post

Not sure which is the preferred etiquette.. I quite like reading full blog posts directly in my timeline but I have previously (manually) posted summaries with links before.. thoughts?



I’ve managed to hack the micropub endpoint to have Hugo correctly categorise the blog post.. but I now need to probably hack and host quill in order to allow me to add a header image and description to the front matter of posts.. which I’m not overly enthusiastic about.. might just do a wee tour of micropub clients and see if any already cater for this.

The Edinburgh Craft Beer festival is on Saturday and I’ve just had to do a lateral flow test to prove covid-19 negativity before I can get my ticket..

It was the first time I’ve done a test and I did not enjoy it.. 20 minutes to go until we find out if the bug that Islay brought how from her first nursery session is going to derail my weekend plans..



All clear!

Seems like the childminder is putting a lot of additional practices in place to satisfy both the enhanced government requirements and us concerned parents. So, fingers crossed!

Just wondering if we should make a mask for our 2 year old now that she has seen others wear it and may have to go into a shop with the childminder.
