busybee fluffy rambles Notes

Ahh—ok. Makes sense. I’m not doing this in my reader—I don’t want to risk rel=“self” being wrong. Is there a compelling reason to do this? I mean if I’m able to fetch the feed, why risk it?

Because sometimes sites migrate to new platforms or new domains and RSS feeds change location, and this helps to avoid linkrot or unpleasant surprises with realizing that you’ve missed a few years of updates because the feed quietly went missing.

Incidentally, I have implemented AutoAuth on this site. Gonna make a more formal announcement shortly.

FYI this is a webmention sent as mastodon reply :)

Oh yeah I meant to test your protocol-relative endpoint link in Pushl. I’m sure it’ll work but it’s worth checking anyway.

Oh hey welcome to Seattle! How long are you in town for?

Also congrats on finding the secret garden. Lots of folks I know have lived here for years without knowing that was a thing. (I only found out about it a few years ago, myself, because I was bored on a day that the rest of the market happened to be closed for a holiday.)
