As someone who is really into the IndieWeb movement and content ownership, I host my own website but my Microcast is hosted in Micro.blog. To me, I still feel safe with my Microcast being on Micro.blog because the entire platform is built on Jekyll. I can sync the content of my entire Microcast website to GitHub and walk away with all of my files and pages, put them on another server and point my domain name at it. With that, I could successfully leave Micro.blog with all of my content very easily compared to any other hosted service. For some people it is too hard or not worth self-Hosting, but data portability is key to content ownership and that’s what Micro.blog provides in my opinion.

I can reply to you from my indieweb site; I can follow your h-feed in an indieweb reader, but as mastodon doesn't send or receive webmentions we have to federate by hand for now. If you link to this post, I can manually send a webmention to make your reply show up.

I’m interested in building a @draftsapp action to publish notes via Micropub. I’m finding their documentation inscrutable. Anyone have pointers? Source for a similar action (perhaps publishing to Tumblr or WordPress) would be super helpful.

Hey Jeena, Because of the way Micro.blog is architected, it treats original posts and replies differently. It should be sending webmentions for original posts, but it doesn’t currently send webmentions to posts that are in reply to other posts. I think there also might be a potential issue if you haven’t verified your domain. Besides that, it should work.

I had a look into my logs and it looks like #Micro.blog doesn't send any webmentions to my site when someone comments, which is a pity, because when I trigger it manually, their comment shows up nicely on my website.

"text": "Baltimore's first Homebrew Website Club of September met at the Digital Harbor Foundation Tech Center on September 18th.\nHere are some notes from the \"broadcast\" portion of the meetup:\n\n jonathanprozzi.net \u2014 Has been travelling and getting married and had lots of time to think about things! Not to work on them, though. Catching back up on things like Gatsby pages for Digital Harbor Foundation. Feeling some maintenance pains now with Gatsby's GraphQL queries pulling HUGE amounts of data from a WordPress backend \u2013 about a 5 minute process for each site build. Upgrading to Gatsby 2 would also require a bunch of changes that he isn't wanting to do. Also, something in the Gatsby build process just broke, without him making any code changes. Wishing now he had built the site in Next.js, which uses REST over GraphQL. For his personal site, he is thinking about how much effort he wants to put into things. He typically uses his personal site as a way to learn new technology, but is now wary of force-fitting things that aren't a good fit. Maybe tweaking his current WordPress site would be a better use of time than rewriting the site. Particularly since he hasn't posted since July.\n \n\n\n rhearamakrishnan.com \u2014 Not much new on her personal site, since it's working well for her purposes. Posted some new stuff she made over the summer, including a micro chap-book called It Makes More Noise Than I Thought It Would. Been working on other summer projects, like writing poems on postcards for people. Photographing and typing those up to make a mini-collection. Wants to build something on Twine, if she can include a form so people can write letters back to her. She's gonna write out the adventure as she wants it and then think about what kind of interactivity she'd like from readers.

Had a couple of out of town trips and projects that were good and fulfilling experiences, like going to Camp Improv Utopia East. Those experiences highlighted that maybe he is feeling burned out about some IndieWeb things! For example, he has been letting the This Week in the IndieWeb Audio Edition slip more and more each week and finding it hard to focus. He's trying to figure out what to do for the upcoming IndieWebCamp NYC, which he is excited about, but feeling a bit overwhelmed by project ideas, things he should be doing to help organize, etc.\n \n\nOther discussion:\nhttps://twinery.org/ is great for creating interactive stuff - and it seems like the output is plain HTML? So it should be possible to add a form from some service like Formspree or Firebase to an exported project, if the tool doesn't offer exactly that kind of thing.\n Dealing with burnout and feeling stuck on things. Sometimes it helps to get energized by doing something else. Sometimes doing those other things really highlights that you have energy, just not for those things you're burned out on!\n Principle of Least Power is another big thing, here. Jonathan and Marty have both been struggling with projects where the tooling or the plumbing may be taking all the energy available.\n Semantic HTML and CSS can do so much, now. We looked at this CSS-only TODO MVC proof of concept. Talked about HTML definition lists, summary/details tags, figure/figcaption, and more.\n \n Talked about the pyramid of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and the inverted pyramid of overbuilt JS-dependent frameworks.\n \n\nLeft-to-right: martymcgui.re, rhearamakrishnan.com, jonathanprozzi.net\n Thanks to everybody who came out!

"html": "<p>Baltimore's <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/events/2018-09-18-homebrew-website-club\">first Homebrew Website Club of September</a> met at the <a href=\"https://www.digitalharbor.org/\">Digital Harbor Foundation Tech Center</a> on September 18th.</p>\n<p>Here are some notes from the \"broadcast\" portion of the meetup:</p>\n<p>\n <a href=\"https://jonathanprozzi.net/\">jonathanprozzi.net</a> \u2014 Has been travelling and getting married and had lots of time to think about things! Not to work on them, though. Catching back up on things like Gatsby pages for Digital Harbor Foundation. Feeling some maintenance pains now with Gatsby's GraphQL queries pulling HUGE amounts of data from a WordPress backend \u2013 about a 5 minute process for each site build. Upgrading to Gatsby 2 would also require a bunch of changes that he isn't wanting to do. Also, something in the Gatsby build process just broke, without him making any code changes. Wishing now he had built the site in <a href=\"https://nextjs.org/\">Next.js</a>, which uses REST over GraphQL. For his personal site, he is thinking about how much effort he wants to put into things. He typically uses his personal site as a way to learn new technology, but is now wary of force-fitting things that aren't a good fit. Maybe tweaking his current WordPress site would be a better use of time than rewriting the site. Particularly since he hasn't posted since July.\n <br /></p>\n<p>\n <a href=\"http://rhearamakrishnan.com/\">rhearamakrishnan.com</a> \u2014 Not much new on her personal site, since it's working well for her purposes. Posted some new stuff she made over the summer, including a micro chap-book called <a href=\"https://ghostcitypress.com/2018-summer-microchap-series/it-makes-more-noise-than-i-thought-it-would\">It Makes More Noise Than I Thought It Would</a>. Been working on other summer projects, like writing poems on postcards for people. Photographing and typing those up to make a mini-collection. Wants to build something on <a href=\"https://twinery.org/\">Twine</a>, if she can include a form so people can write letters back to her. She's gonna write out the adventure as she wants it and then think about what kind of interactivity she'd like from readers.

A couple of back-burner projects are simmering nicely. Mapping I wrote about recently.1 Today I turned back to working on micropub to add posts to this site. I have now worked out how to send two different kinds of post to two different places in the file system. Both are what you might call notes (indeed I call them Notes) but some are little status update notes and others are bookmarks.2 The way Grav works is that each file lives in a folder and Grav uses a specific template to display the contents of the file. I wanted a way to visually distinguish the two kinds of note; I chose different icons in the title.
More this way ...

This is something I struggle to articulate to friends who are suffering because they feel tied to silos like Facebook and Twitter:
What self-publishing does is provide me a choice, which makes me feel good. I feel like I can step away from platforms at will and I don’t feel as shackled as I have done previously.

I’ll try to write up a blog post about it tomorrow.
