Octothorpes Protocol

Ok.

And thanks to @htmlenergy.bsky.social for organizing HTML Day. Had a fabulous time polishing this up at the Portland #htmlDay. We started an octothorpe for anyone who made a site as part of HTML Day: octothorp.es/~/htmlDay

We also have a pitch for the skeptical or the non technical docs.octothorp.es/pitch/ Thanks to LibDoc on @11ty.dev for the great docs site framework. #docs #hashtags

On #htmlday, we are excited to announce our first stable version of Octothorpe Protocol, v0.5. With it comes a flexible API, self-managed #webrings, #RSS for basically everything, a way to turn your tags into hashtags without changing your html, and a new docs site. docs.octothorp.es #octothorpes

#️⃣ Posts with hashtags automatically get linked up via the @octothorpes.bsky.social protocol! Pretty cool.

if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later

Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

media stuff with other sites without a platform. octothorp.es/about

Important milestone: we finally have multiple results for #cats on the main #octothorpe server 🐈‍⬛ octothorp.es/~/cats

we support this

This is so dope. If you octothorped them, folks could stumble upon them in the regular hashtag listings or RSS feeds for each hashtag

do you remember stumbleupon?

anyway, I made a site that lists all of the recommendations that I've ever received to listen/watch/etc. since 2012.

there's 1559 reccs in there, and it will keep growing. the whole idea is that I don't have to store them away anymore! yay. xx

kinda feel like the Bsky team won't listen to trans users about this, so I'll say it as a Cis Person: I don't want Jesse Singal on here spreading his lying hateful "just asking questions" bullshit. he is not acting in good faith, he causes active harm, and he adds nothing worthwhile to this platform
