If I keep it up with #Pine development, I will eventually run out of frontend / display issues to fix and will eventually be forced to work on the #OStatus federation stuff. :P

@deadsuperhero Do you have a blog explaining the rationale of Pine and how it is supposed to work? I fine what you said in the readme interesting, and I would love to read more about it :)

@hugoestr

Basically, the idea is to provide an interface for blogging similar to Medium or Ghost, with the added benefit that all articles are federated.

Rather than have the entire contents of an article federated, a truncated version is federated out as a basic post, with links to the full article embedded. OpenGraph previews provide thumbnails.

Comments, likes, and reshares are reflected in the full article view, allowing for a federated comment system.

@deadsuperhero This is pretty cool. The library to provide the federated interaction may be especially useful to others as well. :)

@hugoestr Thanks! :D

At the moment, I'm actually trying to use Eugen's OStatus2 gem. I'm still trying to figure out how to hook it up to my own system. :P

@deadsuperhero Oh, nice. I will explore that library and seek similar ones in Elixir
