Now I understand why @aaronpk has so much channels in his Monocle screenshots. I'm having 8 channels right now, they're:

  • Home (my IndieWeb feed)
  • Friends on Silos (mostly Twitter 'cause Instagram via Granary is unstable)
  • Comics (XKCD and Naver Webtoons - the last one is crashing @swentel's Indigenous)
  • News (Meduza, my favorite Russian electronic newspaper)
  • Podcasts (currently only myurlis.com)
  • YouTube (some of my YouTube subscriptions - I migrated my pop-science channels there)
  • Self (a view on my own posts, very useful for debugging!)

Channel Icons

I use emojis as icons for channel feeds to be more colorful. I like colorfulness of social media silos and I don't want my IndieWeb feeds to be less attractive than silos. Seems like I'm not the only one, since I saw other people do the same thing.

So, what does your reader feed look like?

I have solved my biggest problem since the first version of pyindieblog: webmentions were only sent from special fields, like u-in-reply-to, and not from e-content. Now my Micropub endpoint parses HTML content and sends webmentions for all URLs mentioned.

So, I'm migrating my YouTube subscriptions to Microsub, thanks to YouTube's RSS support. I think that when I make my own IndieWeb reader, I'll special-case YouTube posts by adding a YouTube embed inside of them. Or maybe by downloading the video with yt-dl and offering it as a u-video. It'll also serve as an archive... but my HDD would explode!

I’m Taking Ownership of My Tweets—zachleat.com

I fully expect my personal website to outlive Twitter and as such have decided to take full ownership of the content I’ve posted there. In true IndieWeb fashion, I’m taking ownership of my data.

I tried Matrix and almost crashed my server (because my server is crap)

@tElizaRose @tw2113 I've been taking some time off/away from it in the late summer, but I've got some pieces (esp. for/from #WordPress perspective) started:

@EddieHinkle so, what's the status of
I suppose I should apologize for what (at least in my timezone) was feeding a lot of test posts in your timeline. micropub.rocks doesn't allow unlisted posts and I have no "deletion" yet. yet.
#IndieWeb #pyindieblog #micropub.rocks
Test of querying the endpoint for the source content
Micropub test of creating an h-entry with one category. This post should have one category, test1
Micropub test of creating a photo referenced by URL
Micropub test of creating an h-entry with categories. This post should have two categories, test1 and test2
Micropub test of creating a basic h-entry
Micropub test of creating multiple photos referenced by URL. This post should include a photo of a city at night.
Micropub test of creating a photo referenced by URL with alt text. This post should include a photo of a sunset.
Micropub test of creating an h-entry with a JSON request containing multiple categories. This post should have two categories, test1 and test2.

Aperture was down, IndieAuth.com token endpoint was down, and I couldn't access my own site (since renderer uses a token to read posts). Thankfully @aaronpk fixed it all. Thank you ❤
