#lazyWeb #indieWeb #webdev folks: what is the best practice for building an #RSS reader (think of a barebones stripped down Feedly), considering RSS feed files could be very large in size?
Set up a chron job to index the feed contents, store to DB, and serve (get/read) from DB instead of fetching & reading from the feed URL directly?
And/or any tutorials or sample repo?
Thanks!
The more I research the #fediverse, #indieweb, #SmallWeb and other related things, the more I see how #Mastodon is not really the ideal end goal I would like it to be, but it's a dam huge step in the right direction.
It feels like a fresh gust of hope.

#indieweb anyone know a micropub client that can EDIT existing posts, available on Linux or Android?
Anybody have advice on good bookkeeping software for a small #indieweb business? Is QuickBooks really the best game in town?
This PWA is getting better! #indieweb
In 2023, I plan to advocate more for client apps to embrace the larger IndieWeb and fediverse. Mastodon going mainstream is a great step forward, but we don’t want a monoculture. A key IndieWeb principle is plurality: multiple apps with different codebases that can interoperate.
Go figure in the course of fixing Pixelfed yesterday, I made a cowboy-headed decision to "just quickly" update BookWyrm as well.
Of course that means that while Pixelfed is working, BookWyrm is slightly borked
So I guess that's tonight's project! #BookWyrm #Pixelfed #IndieWeb #SelfHosting
Just felt like saying this.
I love my instance and its people 🫶.

Importing Tweets to WordPress
I joined Twitter in April of 2008. I have participated mostly as a lurker but have contributed 3,589 tweets. Since I have been introduced to the IndieWeb concept, one of my goals has been to find a way to import my tweets into WordPress.

@tchambers could use a boost to let folk know about this neat #IndieWeb technique (riffing on the shoulders of giants):
On my inexpensive cPanel web host, I have created a couple of redirects to make my #Mastodon #Fediverse presence more resilient.
If you want to find me, no matter what instance I move to, you can always find me by visiting:
Or searching for this handle:
@charles[at]roper.im
These will redirect to my current instance+handle. Anywhere I share my link or my handle will now always redirect to the right place. No link rot!

Ohhh ... Imagine a #Fediverse with independent instances where users are using independent apps! ... sounds like ... like #IndieWeb! 😆 Can't wait...
