@OohDirectory People that write about #IndieWeb tools and principles? https://indieweb.org/

I'm not sure tbh. Reason I asked is because I wanted to find other people who regularly blog about it. Trouble with IndieWeb is that people often post about all sorts of stuff, so can't be put into one category, which is why I thought a tag might work better.

I have looked at a bunch of different #WordPress plugins in order for my website to interact in different ways on the #Fediverse, primarily #mastodon. You have the #indieweb collection of plugins and plugins that @pfefferle has built along with the plugin collection that @jan is building with #indieblocks

What is the collection of plugins that you’ve landed on for you personal and brand websites & why?

Looks like there are a lot of options with some overlap as well

@ryanrandall @natalie I’m seeing more HCommons folx looking at #IndieWeb, so I’ll mention that I’ve got several IndieWeb friendly sites including on #WordPress as does @kfitz, who I think has also been experimenting with static sites lately. If you need support, there’s a great and helpful community you’ll find at https://chat.indieweb.org for all your questions. You might find some useful tidbits and examples at https://indieweb.org/Indieweb_for_Education as well. (https://boffosocko.com/?p=55813641)

Everybody's so concerned with finding new ways to post and syndicate content on #activityPub and #rss they are forgetting to have something unique and interesting to say.

Your milquetoast opinions do not deserve their own #indieweb blog.
@adam ruby.social/@adam

Question for #bloggers, #indieweb and anyone who reads or writes a #blog:

Does anyone have good example of a blog that showcases the authors writing from multiple sources (not just the blog) in a seamless way? I’m talking more than an about page with a few links.

I’m working on incorporating writing I’ve done in the past (like on https://minafi.com ) into my personal blog ( https://adamfortuna.com ) and looking for inspiration.

It’ll never be completely done, but apart from some feed icons and visual tweaks, the bulk of my website redesign is done. Call this the beta release. Feedback/questions welcome! Meanwhile, time to get back into the writing habit, and post all my other stuff to my own site. #indieweb #POSSE https://kevinyank.com/

Bookwyrm is fun, but it's also not very supportive of #Indieweb right now; what would be cool, though not sure how plausible it is, would be to have anything posted from a Bookwyrm server to be copied to one's web site as a post kind of read.
@cambridgeport90 indieweb.social/@cambridgeport90

I'm also going to be publishing my books to my personal web site via Epilogue once I get things going; #indieweb for the win.

Every day now I come across something independent, creative, unique and interesting on the #fediverse the #smolweb #indienet #indieweb. It feels like an independent Internet is really flourishing - feels kind-of like the mid-to-late '90s, only now it's much more... accessible, findable, creative, politically interesting, artistic, informed, subversive, non-commercial, independent. In this moment it feels like the 'Net is *ours* and not theirs (corporates/states). #mastodon #gemini

Sometimes it’s the little things, like editing a post. Edit a reply, see a comment update on another post.

From day 5 (https://tantek.com/2023/005/t3/indieweb-simpler-approach)
* Can I edit my post after publishing?

Whether a tweet or Instagram photo, the answer is no.^1

Blogs and websites have had editing capabilities since the start.

However, no site is an island, it's a *web* site. Interlinked.

We expect edits on one site to show up when embedded or syndicated on other sites.

#Webmention provides the ability for cross-site comments, and unlike the "one-off" prior protocols of Trackbacks & Pingbacks^2, when you update a cross-site comment, by resending a Webmention, the other post updates its copy of your reply: https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/#sending-webmentions-for-updated-posts

If you delete a reply, by resending a Webmention, the other post can delete its copy (or mark it as deleted) https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/#sending-webmentions-for-deleted-posts

Similarly, the #ActivityPub protocol specifies update & delete capabilities, as implemented by #Mastodon and others.

#BridgyFed (https://fed.brid.gy) bridges (as the name says) these two protocols, which enables the following interactions.

#IndieWeb post -(Webmention)-> BridgyFed -(ActivtyPub)-> Mastodon displays post

and then this:

IndieWeb updated post -(Webmention)-> BridgyFed -(ActivtyPub)-> Mastodon displays updated post

This works for replies to toots as well:

IndieWeb reply to toot -(Webmention)-> BridgyFed -(ActivtyPub)-> toot displays reply

and subsequently:

IndieWeb updated reply -(Webmention)-> BridgyFed -(ActivtyPub)-> toot updates display of reply

Thanks to these update protocols in Webmention & ActivityPub, and BridgyFed connecting them, after adding “forward-in-time” links (https://tantek.com/2023/006/t1/forward-in-time-links) I was able to resend webmentions for my previous #100DaysOfIndieWeb posts, and have those forward links show up wherever my posts were already displayed on Mastodon.

Posts interlinked with replies interlinked with protocols interlinked.

This is day 9 of #100DaysOfIndieWeb #100Days.

^1 The ability to edit tweets has literally been the most requested feature on Twitter since perhaps its launch. Last year, paid Twitter “Blue” accounts finally got the ability to edit tweets, sort of: five times within 30 minutes of posting. Too little, too late.

^2 Pingbacks were originally (and for many years) only implemented as one-off cross-blog interactions. One-time, uneditable. Pingbacks (and Trackbacks before them) were notoriously ugly when they showed up on blogs, listed & displayed as a separate thing (never tie presentation to the name of a protocol) with cryptically elided summaries: https://indieweb.org/pingback#Poor_display.

It took over 10 years since being specified (2002) for the IndieWeb community to re-use pingbacks for actual comments across sites: https://tantek.com/2013/113/b1/first-federated-indieweb-comment-thread separating presentation & UI from the protocol.

This separation of concerns approach evolved into the Webmention specification, separating the protocol from the display of comments, likes, reposts, and other social web https://indieweb.org/responses.

https://jhey.dev/ (@jhey@front-end.social) hey! thanks for the kind words.

Two sides to supporting #webmentions:

1. Sending: https://webmention.app/ is excellent, by https://remysharp.com/ (@rem@front-end.social), or you can write your own Webmention sending loop using endpoint discovery libraries, and in that loop you can do other things, like also send each link to the Internet Archive (https://indieweb.org/Internet_Archive#Trigger_an_Archive, what I do on my site) to archive each link as of the time you linked to it.

2. Receiving: https://webmention.io/ (which is what I use) by https://aaronparecki.com/ as recommended by https://mxb.dev/ (@mxbck@front-end.social), or https://webmention.herokuapp.com/ by https://voxpelli.com/ (@voxpelli@mastodon.social) as recommended by https://kryogenix.org/ (@sil@mastodon.social). Similarly to sending, you could also write your own Webmention receiving code.

Then the fun part, once you’re receiving webmentions, is figuring out how you want to display them as comments, likes, reposts etc. on your post permalinks. Do you display people’s icons/avatars, at what resolution? Do you display the entirety of comments or do you elide them at 255 characters (or some other limit)? Etc. If(when) you start storing received webmentions in your own site/server’s storage, there’s a bunch more interesting considerations.

More resources:

That’s a good start. Drop by https://chat.indieweb.org/dev for deep dives into any of the above, and welcome to the Webmentionverse

Today was Day 4 of my #100daysofindieweb project. I am working on migrating part of my twitter archive export to posts on my Hugo blog. Today I came up with a data structure of classify types of tweets.

PMO Advice for a Former Teacher That is Now in a Project Management Office

Introduction

A former teacher reached out to me to ask if there was any advice I would give to teachers that are now in the project management role in her school system's project management office.

The Year of the Personal Website · Matthias Ott – User Experience Designer

Especially if you are a designer, an artist, a photographer, a writer, a blogger, a creator of any kind, owning your work is as important as ever. Social media platforms might be great for distributing your content and creating a network of like-minded people around you. But they will always be ephemeral, transient, and impermanent – not the best place to preserve your thoughts, words, and brushstrokes.
