As someone who worked on hundreds of bus systems online data, I spent a lot of time trying to convince transit agencies that “the old old church” and “dirt rd/dirt rd” is not a good stop name. Intersections are ideal if standard formatting and cleaned for text-to-speech.
idk who needs to hear this but station names don't need to tell you everything about their environs. pick a street, neighbourhood, or landmark – whatever provides most ...

The #IndieWeb approach *is* the simpler day-to-day approach.
Once you setup your domain & provider (or host/CMS), you always know where to post.
Your own site.
Write first, defer “destination decisions”.
Create first, edit for audience(s) second.
It’s refreshing & liberating.
Whether text, photos, videos, podcasts, brief thoughts, thinking out loud, a considered essay or “thought piece”, or replies to any of the above, start with your own site.
Why burden yourself with having to decide what to post based on:
* Will this fit in 140^H^H^H 280 characters?
* Or 500?
* Does it need a title?
* Will my photos/videos fit their aspect ratio limits?
* Which four photos for this album? Or 10? What one aspect ratio to crop them all into?
* Will my video fit in 15, 30, 90, or 140 seconds?
* Will I upset Big Chad or be subject to selective enforcement of ever-changing policies?
* Can I edit my post after publishing?
By decoupling creating from “distribution”, or “audience”, or “reach”, or the size of someone else’s storage boxes, you are free to express your thoughts first, then optionally decide if you want to share them elsewhere and edit as necessary.
If you do want to syndicate (POSSE) your post, then you can decide:
* Where else to send your post
* Is it worth your time to edit your post for any particular destination
* … their content limits (number of characters/photos, or video length)
* … their audience expectations or terms of service sensitivities
Creating and editing are different mental tasks.
Decoupling them makes posting easier and you can do a better job at both.
You can defer destination decisions & editing to some point in the future entirely, when you feel it’s worth your time.
You decide how and when to spend time creating vs editing. You are in control.

I’m surprised this hasn’t happened to me sooner, but I had a pretty vivid dream that I tested positive for COVID. I was so frustrated about it in the dream because I had been really careful about masking in public, but hardly anyone else was. Sounds familiar. It was such a relief when I woke up.

I have been saying this for a few months now.
All the noise around the Leapords...
Forget the noise
Get the Cheetahs back in Production
These little Gepards are Shahed destroyers
Do not take mutli person crews, and won't need extensive NATO repairs
#Ukraine #NAFO
Proof that aid to Ukraine saves lives and even more reason to continue to support Ukraine's defense against barbaric attacks:

Choosing a domain name is a key step toward getting your own #IndieWeb site. Like choosing an account name (chat, email, Mastodon) but global, feels more personal, and like more of a commitment. Six tips:
1. Use some form of your name (given & family), so you have a chance of having your site and posts show up when people search for you
2. Or a made-up nickname that fits you now and into the future
3. Something easily memorable, speakable, & spellable to better tell people in-person or on the phone (i.e. avoid "cute" or "weird" spellings like dropping vowels)
4. Use https://domai.nr/ to quickly try variants
5. Try to get a .com .net or .org, which are still seen as more legitimate. A .me is ok, as is your country/region (e.g. .us .uk .eu etc. see https://indieweb.org/ccTLD for more examples)
6. Shorter is better for many reasons: https://indieweb.org/short-domains
Once you find an available name, choose a domain registrar, which is like choosing a phone company, except there are more of them. Some recommendations: https://indieweb.org/personal-domain#Domain_Registrars
Got questions, or want more tips & opinions?
Ask in https://chat.indieweb.org/ — you’ll get a lot of sympathy & support as nearly everyone there has gone through this process, and many are eager to share their experiences to make it easier for new folks.
https://indieweb.org/naming is hard, it’s ok to ask for help.

@JerryMichalski @j3rry@toolsforthought.rocks With respect to your idea of a NeoDeck, I’m reminded of a slideshow set up that was built into a MediaWiki site which might fit some of the prototype you’re seeking?
Details: https://indieweb.org/Template:slideshow
Example: https://indieweb.org/2018/Baltimore/Building_Blocks
Individual pages could also likely be done via transclusion thereby giving one the ability to create re-orderable versions.
