@indigo Here's hoping.
@larand That is so true, and applies to everyone else working on this and other things. It can wait. Not indefinitely, obvs, but a little while.

@jws It is definitely very geeky at the moment, and a lot of the discussion whooshes over my head. But I am learning just by hanging around and asking my simplistic questions. And sometimes, the very act of asking leads me to find my own solutions.
I'm obviously even more worried about running my own server than you are, which is why I leave the nuts and bolts to someone else. But I am comfortable enough working with software on the server, as long as I can use SSH to get in and out.
The other thing is that the core IWC people have been thinking about things for a long time, and may be in something of an echo bubble themselves. Which is why I think it would be great for Jason to get involved. The problem is, he has so much on his plate, and 10C seems -- very reasonable -- to be a priority.
I see a few people from here and ADN over on the indieweb IRC channel, which is fun. I definitely think there's something to be said for moving 10C in that direction. It already does reposts to Twitter and Facebork. I have no idea how hard it would be to let it receive stuff too.
@hazardwarning Nah, it's a different thing he's talking about. Confusing, I know.

@matigo You may be right about that. All I would add is that Aaron is super approachable and would probably welcome any input you could offer. Notwithstanding those other things you just mentioned.
Well that's a massive pain in the butt. After much plugging and unplugging of cables, I've traced a horrible 1khz whine in my audio chain to the box that connects the USB to the Mixer. These things are not repairable, so I've got to bite the bullet and replace. But that requires a choice. Get a new A/D box, or get a new mixer with USB in and out? I lean to the former, if only for flexibility, but need to do the research. After I've finished mixing tomorrow's podcast.
@matigo I reckon if you somehow make it depend on a blockchain, people will rush to give you money.
No, wait. You don't want that.

@matigo Make it so.
I'd say that this would make the whole idea of #indieweb a lot more tenable to a bunch of people in what the gurus call generations 3 and 4 [indieweb.org]. Maybe even 2, which is where I see myself.
All that stuff and nonsense about having a local development environment and then pushing that out to a production site via whatever sync method you can manage to work at any given moment would disappear in a puff of smoke. I'd happily pay for one of those coffee-cup sized servers.
p.s. I'm also posting this first to my own owned-content, in those that it may encourage you to hook up, although I know you have lots of other things on your mind.
@jws I agree about ssh, but the host I am with specifically for WithKnown says that's old fashioned and I have to use Gitlab and he'll poll that for changes. One reason I moved it to dreamhost, where there is no extra charge beyond what I am currently paying.
