Okay, time to make some changes to Koype and indieweb-elixir
so I can get my IndieAuth implementation up to the latest spec. I might also stamp it somehow in the code-base so I can make these deltas a lot easier. Going to be following https://aaronparecki.com/2020/12/03/1/indieauth-2020 from head to toe.
Going to make this into a small series of posts with the commits linked in-line!
I also think the logic in https://git.jacky.wtf/indieweb/koype/src/branch/develop/web/controllers/media_controller.ex is causing all of the images on my site to load very slowly. It’s like two network requests every single time. I think I’ll rewrite it such that it’s a bunch of 301s to the underlying image URL. I might have to reconsider that soon because I do want to eventually adapt the locations of some images to be mirrored on things like Dat and IPFS. Might not need to do that since they - more or less - do a mhtml download of pages.
I just recently found out Known is still under development. I always did like it as blogging, micro-blogging, Indieweb compatible CMS. I've just setup a new instance and linked it to Micro.blog.
stream.glenn.coffeeChecking out all of the people who’ve publicly joined the online chat community for the IndieWeb at https://indieweb.org/chat-names#Nicknames. Looking for some slight inspo. Down to see other sites. Big requirement is mobile-first design tbh.
Reminder that it's #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham tomorrow! I hope to see you there at 1730 for some website stuff! https://events.indieweb.org/2021/02/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-JpmhTGghTju3
Micropublish now supports the proposed Micropub extension for Channels. If your server’s endpoint responds to ?q=channel
, or your config has a channel
property, you can use the new field.
While my current site doesn’t use channels, I’ve designed page management in my new, work-in-progress server to use the new proposal.
Well it looks like I've now got refresh tokens working nicely on my #IndieAuth server - expect a write up tomorrow!
Something that I haven’t seen anywhere on the Indieweb: is there a simple guide for services which let you replace Twitter, Facebook, Insta, etc etc with more open alternatives? Preferably written with non-technical users in mind?
IndieWeb-friendly personal sites can work together to provide all kinds of social features to the web. Likes, replies, bookmarks, GIF responses, reaction videos, and way more!
But should our sites do this? Recreating the dopamine-hit, engagement-maximizing, abuse-inviting patterns of the social silos is likely not the answer.
How can we make the web social while protecting one another?
