Proper content-type for .jsonl

[brianorwhatever]

Continuing discussions from #41 I think we need to specify something.

When I upload it to a browser it says it's application/octet-stream.

There doesn't appear to be a consensus in wardi/jsonlines#19

The proposal there is application/jsonl which I think looks like a typo..

Another proposal in there (amazon uses) is application/jsonlines which seems pretty good to me other than not being in IANA

We could help the JSON Lines folks write a draft spec so that our draft spec would be complete and so that we can make an IANA submission. Turtles all the way down…

I think we go with application/jsonlines, but I’m not the expert in this area. It just feels right...

Andrew has found that text/jsonl is the right thing to use:

I updated the demo DID on anywhy.ca, and set the mime type for jsonl to 'text/jsonl' as that helps it render properly in a browser (apparently that's what Shopify uses)

@andrew is it application/jsonl or text/jsonl? The jsonl website recommends application. I see some talk from shopify stuff but can’t find this. Will test with my shopify account when I get a chance

I was looking into this as well, I also landed on application/octet-stream as there is no registered MIME type for jsonlines. Is there documentation about text/jsonl?
