I'm hopeful about the news that Fosstodon may survive under new administration.

But I am going to to start periodically backing up my toots in a structured format to eventually – hopefully – populate my own CMS which will later end up being the source of the content (toots, blog posts, photos pushed to pixelfed, etc.).

Messed around and made a /now page. https://artlung.com/now/

You know what would be cool? An #eleventy video plugin that works like the image plugin. Except, the video plugin does these steps: https://www.mux.com/articles/how-to-convert-mp4-to-hls-format-with-ffmpeg-a-step-by-step-guide

The use case is I'm interested in #indieweb, #smolweb, #smallweb and I'd just rather host my random little videos myself instead of putting them on Youtube.

This is just so, so nice. Congrats Joe and thanks, and thanks to all who have helped one another learn and make web pages. 💖 And here’s to more!! ✨🔥✨

#IndieWeb #FrESH #anniversary

For the last week or so, I have been playing around with Jekyll and GitHub Pages as a possible replacement for my current Wordpress site.

It was all very fun, and the simplicity of posting makes it a very attractive alternative. However...

Moving instances is probably a good time for a re- #introduction

Hi, I'm rubenwardy! I'm a software engineer and open source maintainer. I'm a core dev for @Luanti, I made ContentDB and represent #Luanti at conferences

I'm interested in a wide range of areas, including #GameDev, UI/UX, #electronics, #makers, #Linux, #AndroidDev, and #IndieWeb

I'm a prolific creator, I have way too many side projects on the go at a time. I post about things I'm working on here and on my website

My interactive recipe for my homemade Pizza got some improvements. It has a cooking mode and a short version of the recipe for those who already know the method and just need the measures.

The combination of those two modes is very handy for me.

Serious question popping up for me repeatedly: All is cool in #indieweb camp these days ... but how to make it a world for actual random people, even those lacking the privilege of being able to write markup, create stylesheets, understand what a domain name and an IP address is, ...?

There will be an #IndieWeb Camp in Düsseldorf and were I in Germany this next weekend I would surely attend. Were I going to «beyond tellerand» I'd be looking forward to it: https://events.indieweb.org/2025/05/-indiewebcamp-düsseldorf-lbBv9MGOChq2

Cool to see the POSSE photo I snapped at Fediverse House used in this blog post:

The encouraging thing about IndieWeb is that it’s presented as a series of incremental improvements. It’s not an all-or-nothing replacement and it’s possible to expand in parallel.

I’ve uploaded a copy of the photo to the IndieWeb wiki too. Public domain, CC0.

I added a little splashed-on paint stain in the bottom corner of my #website and it makes me disproportionately happy for such a tiny thing...

...I think it feels more "me" to stain ANYTHING I have that's clean and new. 🙃

Content warning:Nazis and Linux and open source things.

Longer blog post coming but of course PewDiePie would love #Linux and otherwise. It isn't a secret that fascists, and their enablers, love the open web, open source, and even open technology, and places like the people focused web and the indieweb, as an example. this isn't new. Open source and open technology and the IndieWeb etc. Will always attract fascists. Why do they love these things? Simple, they believe they have a space free from community consequences to spew their hatred. You can combat this in a number of small and big ways. Some small ways are making them obviously uncomfortable, and or outright unwelcome, remember the guy that kicks out Nazis even though they say please and thank you?

First, some petty ways.

Make all of your Linux distro wallpaper LGBT+ inclusive.

But on a more serious note,

You can't outright stop them from using open source software. You can, though, make it very clear their bullshit won’t be tolerated here.

This means prioritizing your marginalized contributors over them. Implement their ideas over obvious Nazi ideas. Do things that tell them, hey, your bullshit isn't welcome. Force them to look for non woke software.

You won’t chase them from the internet. That's not possible, but you can force them to be around other Nazis exclusively and that's important because they need numbers. You don't need them. They need you as a recruiting ground. It really is that simple.

As for all who don't believe PewDiePie is a fascist or at least a fascist sympothiser, https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/PewDiePie

Hey #Fediverse, #Smolweb, #Smallweb, #Indieweb folks, what is the latest thinking on sharing videos on your personal website? Of course, just uploading videos to youtube is fine I guess but maybe peertube? What are our thoughts on uploading the video files directly to the site and hosting it there?
