@prologic how do you enable it? I don't recall seeing it when I set up my pod but I'd like to play with it.

@prologic aha, thank you!

Where does one find a list of these magical "Optional Settings?" What are my options?!

@abucci Normally the process if this:

1. build a new feature, put it behind a feature gate
2. announce it and tell other pod operators about it
3. after a while promote it

That being said, if there are more than one optional feature being gated at the same time, they can be listed:


$ ./yarnd --enable-feature list
Available Features:
 - foo
 - moving_average_feed_refresh
 - jump_timeline_age
 - websub


And oops looks like we need to retest a couple of other features (I no longer run them) and see if we need to either improve them or nuke 'em 😅

@prologic OK this is pretty silly but now that I've turned this setting on I don't know what to do with it (?!!?).

Every time I think I understand this IndieWeb thing I end up confused again. I'm starting to believe it is needlessly complicated.

@abucci There is nothing to do with websub -- It is completely transparent to the user: it makes updates across pods near real-time.
