Here’s the talk I gave at Webstock earlier this year all about the indie web:
In these times of centralised services like Facebook, Twitter, and Medium, having your own website is downright disruptive. If you care about the longevity of your online presence, independent publishing is the way to go. But how can you get all the benefits of those third-party services while still owning your own data? By using the building blocks of the Indie Web, that’s how!

While I still believe that my pixelated and de-personalised presentation of the backfeed solved at least most of the ethical issues, I personally don\u2019t want to jump through the hoops of drafting a privacy statement with a shaky argumentation about the lawfulness of storing all that data. At the same time, this releases me from the need to think about how to deal with individuals\u2019 requests as they may execute their rights under the GDPR; it makes this site less social, though \u2013 a strong motivation to keep thinking about solutions!</blockquote><p>Would love to know <a href=\"https://micro.blog/c\">@c</a> thoughts on this <a href=\"https://sebastiangreger.net/2018/05/indieweb-privacy-challenge-webmentions-backfeeds-gdpr/\">post</a> by Sebastian Gregor.</p><p>At first, I thought that Sebastian was misunderstanding the GDPR but as I read further I realized he had done considerably more research than I did. If his conclusions are correct we have a major problem. I don\u2019t solicit comments from EU readers but I do have some regular visitors from Germany, Italy and the UK.</p><p>I am not as concerned with privacy. I don\u2019t one can have any expectations of privacy when acting in public. But I don\u2019t want laws written in any country other than the USA to apply to me.

"text": "Island in the Net Transient - A personal website by Kh\u00fcrt Williams, with imagery, and inchoate ramblings on coffee, beer, and geekery. Replied to The Indieweb privacy challenge (Webmentions, silo backfeeds, and the GDPR) // Sebastian Greger by Sebastian Greger (sebastiangreger.net)Given the considerations above, and the GDPR enforcement deadline three weeks away, I decided to at least temporarily remove the Twitter backfeed from my site, delete the personal data accrued in the database, and disable my Brid.gy account (shedding a little tear, as it truly is an ingenious concept and service). While I still believe that my pixelated and de-personalised presentation of the backfeed solved at least most of the ethical issues, I personally don\u2019t want to jump through the hoops of drafting a privacy statement with a shaky argumentation about the lawfulness of storing all that data. At the same time, this releases me from the need to think about how to deal with individuals\u2019 requests as they may execute their rights under the GDPR; it makes this site less social, though \u2013 a strong motivation to keep thinking about solutions!Would love to know @c thoughts on this post by Sebastian Gregor.At first, I thought that Sebastian was misunderstanding the GDPR but as I read further I realized he had done considerably more research than I did. If his conclusions are correct we have a major problem.

@jgmac1106 @DoOO I think that one day in the not-too-distant future, the half a dozen IndieWeb plugins for WordPress will not only merge together, but they might also enter the core product, thus making them simpler and easier to use. WordPress can be made much more flexible and extensible with plugins for a variety of purposes and there's a tremendously valuable community and ecosystem that's already there. Further, I think that companies, similar to Reclaim Hosting and the DoOO movement, will eventually spring up to make hosting and owning one's own site simpler and easier. While there's a lot of value baked into Known, its community and resources aren't (yet!) as large or as flexible as WordPress or even other open source communities. Fortunately the IndieWeb principle of plurality will show us the way forward. The more things working toward openness and shared standards will make these ideas all the stronger.
While the recent spate of work on IndieReaders is awesome and inspiring, I'm also curious what is next after that? IndieBrowsers? IndieHardware?
Ultimately I'm grateful that we're all here pressing the boundaries and experimenting with what is possible.

Yeah it can definitely be confusing, especially because some people build their own websites, some want simple ways to get Wordpress functioning and micro.blog aims to be as close to 0 config as possible. So everything has different audiences 🙂 Feel free to ask me any questions you have as you try to figure out what you want to do. There is also a Slack community and IRC community for the IndieWeb where you can discussion questions and find answers: https://indieweb.org/discuss
