"text": "Editor\u2019s note: This is another in a continuing series of essays about the IndieWeb.\nWhere is the IndieWeb?\nLogos\nOne might consider the IndieWeb\u2019s indieweb.org wiki-based website and chat the \u201clogos\u201d of IndieWeb. There is a small group of about a hundred active to very active participants who hang out in these spaces on a regular basis, but there are also many who dip in and out over time as they tinker and build, ask advice, get some help, or just to show up and say hello. Because there are concrete places online as well as off (events) for them to congregate, meet, and interact, it\u2019s the most obvious place to find these ideas and people.\nEthos\nBeyond this there is an even larger group of people online who represent the \u201cethos\u201d of IndieWeb. Some may have heard the word before, some have a passing knowledge of it, but an even larger number have not. They all act and operate in a way that either seemed natural to them because they grew up in the period of the open web, or because they never felt accepted by the thundering herds in the corporate social enclosures. Many are not necessarily easily found or discovered because they\u2019re not surfaced or highlighted by the sinister algorithms of corporate social media, but through slow and steady work (much like the in person social space) they find each other and interact in various traditional web spaces. Many of them can be found in spaces like Micro.Blog, Tilde Club or NeoCities, or through movements like A Domain of One\u2019s Own. Some can be found through a variety of webrings, via blogrolls, or just following someone\u2019s website and slowly seeing the community of people who stop by and comment. Yes, these discovery methods may involve a little more work, but shouldn\u2019t healthy human interactions require work and care?\nPathos\nThe final group of people, and likely the largest within the community, are those that represent the \u201cpathos\u201d of IndieWeb. The word IndieWeb has not registered with any of them and they suffer with grief in the long shadow of corporate social media wishing they had better user interfaces, better features, different interaction, more meaningful interaction, healthier and kinder interaction. Some may have even been so steeped in big social for so long that they don\u2019t realize that there is another way of being or knowing.\nThese people may be found searching for the IndieWeb promised land on silo platforms like Tumblr, WordPress.com, Blogger, or Medium where they have the shadow on the wall of a home on the web where they can place their identities and thoughts. Here they\u2019re a bit more safe from the acceleration of algorithmically fed content and ills of mainstream social. Others are trapped within massive content farms run by multi-billion dollar extractive companies who quietly but steadily exploit their interactions with friends and family.\nThe Conversation\nAll three of these parts of the IndieWeb, the logos, the ethos, and the pathos comprise the community of humanity. They are the sum of the real conversation online.\nVenture capital backed corporate social media has cleverly inserted themselves between us and our interactions with each other. They privilege some voices not only over others, but often at the expense of others and only to their benefit. We have been developing a new vocabulary for these actions with phrases like \u201csurveillance capitalism\u201d, \u201cdata mining\u201d, and analogizing human data as the new \u201coil\u201d of the 21st century. The IndieWeb is attempting to remove these barriers, many of them complicated, but not insurmountable, technical ones, so that we can have a healthier set of direct interactions with one another that more closely mirrors our in person interactions. By having choice and the ability to move between a larger number of service providers there is an increasing pressure to provide service rather than the growing levels of continued abuse and monopoly we\u2019ve become accustomed to.\nNone of these subdivisions\u2014logos, ethos, or pathos\u2014is better or worse than the others, they just are. There is no hierarchy between or among them just as there should be no hierarchy between fellow humans. But by existing, I think one could argue that through their humanity these people are all slowly, but surely making the web a healthier, happier, fun, and more humanized and humanizing place to be.\nI\u2019d appreciate others\u2019 thoughts and perspectives on this regardless of where they choose to post them.\u00a0",

I’m just about done with the article. (Sorry it didn’t go up last week…had to leave for vacation.)
The funny thing is I started working on a buildless demo repo because I needed to use one for the #SpicyWebDev courses, but it ended up being a fascinating topic in itself!
I'm writing up an article to help kick off the #SpicyWebDev blog all about:
Using a modern development workflow with buildless HTML/CSS/JS.

I had a busy weekend releasing code!
I did another release of Hometown, my fork of Mastodon that adds small-community-focused features: github.com/hometown-fork/…
I posted a roadmap for the next Hometown release: github.com/hometown-fork/…

Today, we commemorate the life of Felicia the Physics Ferret. Her underground career in quantum tunnelling made Fermilab possible. 50 years ago today, she went to that synchrotron in the sky.

Travel ProTip™: On the left is a shitty hotel remote. They often don't even let you switch inputs on the TV. On the right is the $16 universal remote I travel with. It allows me to bypass the shitty hotel remote so I can use my FireTV stick and bypass the shitty hotel TV.
