If this takes off and becomes mainstream, will you show some inclusiveness towards poor people like me who will dare editing their org social files with an editor like Kate?

#52This sure is a social network for a very small and specific set of people.

#53 * Patch 1: https://www.bi6.us/ER/MSH/0001-add-closing-paren-to-org-social-parse-feed-to-comple.patch

Well, yes, technically you only need the first patch to get it to work. The second patch adds my name to the list of social-org sites. They're both one line changes, so it should be easy to verify I'm not adding to the global index of chicanery through software.And if it's been a while since you applied a patch to a repo (instead of just pulled from a repo you merged into), here's the HOWTO I wrote about it:

You say that like it's a bad thing? :-) I almost never see posts on facebook from my actual friends. it's all either E.D. adverts or bots pushing an agenda.
I'm not in that very small and specific set of people but I am not that far from it; last week I logged into Furrymuck for the first time in decades and attended a memorial service for one of its wizzes and remembering how that text-only MMORPG worked sure was interesting when I wasn't busy crying my face off.

#56What does it solve compared to a normal plain HTML blog?

#57How about social.md which is gpg signed ?

#58Sounds a bit like the idea that Bluesky started out with. I don't really get why specifically org mode though, sounds like you could be doing the same thing with a simple Markdown file. And while you're at it, why not just use HTML and read your friends' blogs in the browser?
Because that would require leaving emacs, I guess. Just a guess. I'm a Vim user so unlike emacs users I do know how to shower but like emacs users I can't manage to carry a conversation with someone in person. We only think partly alike.
Yeah, but if this kind of social network was hosted on Vim, nobody would be able to exit it I guess.

I thought that was Gemini: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemini_(protocol)
Gemini is for hipsters who want to look like they like Gopher, but can't live without their cat pics. (Said in jest, of course)
And I still don’t know whether IIS itself still exists.
