| 01:20 | <Domenic> | We audited the IDs in the navigation API PR and preserved as many as we could. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yxnzjRDVmAR5CC9GcAyY448lBD0u0E98eUEMHDhx1Dw/edit#heading=h.wljr2vzc2ntc |
| 01:20 | <Domenic> | The exported terms did indeed change |
| 01:21 | <Domenic> | But WebDriver and other parts of the ecosystem were very broken (using browsing contexts, and thus not working whenever COOP happened) so arguably it's just an improvement to have HTML updated, even if WebDriver was not. |
| 01:21 | <Domenic> | We did indeed file issues on places like WebDriver. |
| 01:21 | <Domenic> | And are willing to help advise on the best fixes. |
| 03:16 | <Aditya Shankar> | hey, I'm sorry for like just jumping in here lol |
| 03:16 | <Aditya Shankar> | I believe there should be an extra specification in html, for mastodon like distributed social media services to be able to connect with each other, just like there is for us to be able to send using any emailing service |
| 03:18 | <Aditya Shankar> | one of the issues with distributed social media services like mastodon is its impossible to "follow" another individual on another mastodon server without "copy pasting" the link to that server to another website and this partially is because there is no distributed spec through which this is possible within the web itself |
| 03:19 | <Aditya Shankar> | idk if this is too naive a question, or it perhaps doesn't matter because distributed social media services aren't popular and this may not be worth doing |
| 03:19 | <Aditya Shankar> | but yeah, basically I'm curious to if there are any solutions in the html spec that can be used to overcome this issue - without centralization |
| 03:20 | <Aditya Shankar> | I'm really sorry if this question is to naive or if I've come to the wrong forum to ask about this |
| 04:12 | <Domenic> | Normally for new features the process is https://whatwg.org/faq#adding-new-features . Here I guess it's a bit unclear whether the feature you're suggesting is a web platform feature at all (instead of, e.g., something that different social networking services should coordinate on building into their websites). But that might still be a useful starting point. |
| 07:35 | <annevk> | I think Mastodon and such might even be based around https://w3c.github.io/activitypub/? Haven't looked at it too deeply, but that name came up. |
| 09:42 | <annevk> | freddy: at some point we discussed setHTML(input, { sanitize: "unsafe-none" }), right? |
| 09:42 | <freddy> | I have never heard of this. |
| 09:42 | <annevk> | freddy: we might still need that, but it would prolly be bad to only ship that at first |
| 09:43 | <freddy> | What is "that"? A Sanitizer that doesn't sanitize? I suppose you could use innerHTML instead? |
| 09:44 | <annevk> | freddy: it's using the parser without a sanitizer |
| 09:44 | <annevk> | freddy: and you can't really use innerHTML as you might have to set some other option, such as enableShadowRoots: true |
| 09:56 | <sideshowbarker> | I think Mastodon and such might even be based around https://w3c.github.io/activitypub/? Haven't looked at it too deeply, but that name came up. |
| 10:00 | <sideshowbarker> | The ActivityPub community has a Matrix space with a bunch of rooms #activitypub-community:codelutin.com |
| 10:04 | <sideshowbarker> | #fediverse:pixie.town seems to be the main room |
