Validating Webmentions 2020 Edition

@dajbelshaw thanks for thoughtful discussion! Clarification: “libertarian” (any kind) is a misimpression at best.

#IndieWeb succeeds & grows because it’s a #community co-operating for individual agency. What @Rabble said: https://tantek.com/2020/010/t2/indieweb-community-inclusive-anarchistic-punk

Context, he also said that while participating in-person at https://tantek.com/2019/303/e1/homebrew-website-club-sf and after he demonstrated the Planetary #scuttlebutt client he’s building.

I highly recommend participating in an @IndieWebCamp or Homebrew Website Club to get a more accurate impression of the #IndieWeb community.

Repost 2019-10-30 @rabble from https://planetary.social:

“It’s interesting to see how the #indieweb community has forged forward with an inclusive and really anarchistic punk vision of a web for all, where everyone can DIY and co-create the future.”

With the help of snarfed.org I've now got brid.gy running locally and syndicating RSVPs from my website to Meetup.com - hopefully it'll be live next week for the rest of the #IndieWeb to enjoy https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/873

Let’s PESOS Passive Posts with Trakt and Last.FM

A fairly easy result for #HomebrewWebsiteClub - don't try resending Webmentions (for two weeks) if the target doesn't support Webmentions

We’ve got an IndieWeb Meetup in Austin on Wednesday, 6:30pm at Mozart’s Coffee. It’s a time to ask questions, work on your own site, or chat about web standards and blogging. We’ll also discuss plans for IndieWebCamp Austin, coming up in February.

Microsub specification says that notifications channel should get handled separately from others (that’s why it has a known UID and is the first). Cool feature of Java (and Kotlin) that allows me to do it: I set my Notifications fragment (that is separate from feeds) to a subclass of MicrosubChannelFragment that sets “uid” to notifications. This prevents duplication of code, makes my channels pretty and saves effort!

Frank Chimero · Redesign: Wants and Needs

Websites sit on a design spectrum. On one end are applications, with their conditional logic, states, and flows—they’re software.

On the other end of the design spectrum are documents; sweet, modest documents with their pleasing knowableness and clear edges.

For better or worse, I am a document lover.

This is the context where I fell in love with design and the web. It is a love story, but it is also a ghost story.

What About 2020

Thoughts on what I will and won't do in 2020: reclaiming attention and quality time.
RSVPed Attending IndieWebCamp London
IndieWebCamp London 2020 is a gathering for independent web creators of all kinds, from graphic artists, to designers, UX engineers, coders, hackers, to share ideas, actively work on creating for their own personal websites, and build upon each others creations.

Happy New Year! 🎉 Hope everyone’s year is off to a good start so far. We’ve got a couple IndieWeb Austin events coming up in early 2020: the meetup is next Wednesday, 6:30pm at Mozart’s, and the 2-day IndieWebCamp is February 22-23.

Bookmarked: A brief year in review of my website, domain, online identity, commonplace book, journal, diary, etc.

What I Did Last Year

10 years ago today: started posting notes on my site instead of Twitter: https://tantek.com/2010/001/t1/declaring-independence-building-it
Then 25 days to auto-syndicate, catch up: https://twitter.com/t/status/8228455558

Have a site? Start posting your notes there in 2020.

Just start. Ask the #indieweb community and we’ll help.

Start with static note permalinks and a script to update your homepage & feeds.
Then start auto-syndicating (POSSEing https://indieweb.org/POSSE) and you can replace your tweeting with your own website.

Questions?
