Thanks to some inspiration from the IndieWeb community (@aaronpk, @capjamesg, @tmichellemoore) I have added Webmention to my site - currently only replies which I'm finding useful for commenting when relevant on my own posts also. #indieweb

This morning I learned about custom block patterns for WordPress. I knew about blocks. I knew about patterns. I didn’t know about custom block patterns. I am going to try to make a custom block pattern for an RSVP. If all is successful I will add it to the pattern library on WordPress.org. I am still reading and viewing videos, so more on this over the next few days.

#indieweb question:

Say one is planning on changing the domain name of their personal website. What's a good strategy to use to prevent links to the website's pages from breaking on popular search engines? Is setting up domain name forwarding from the old domain to the new domain enough? If so, for how long? I'd eventually like to stop paying for my old domain name / not renewing it every year.

Exciting times on the #Fediverse / #IndieWeb …

@chockenberry I agree with your vision of a true social reader and its something we've been thinking about at #indieweb for a while. Anything we can do to help? https://indieweb.org/social_reader

@tmichellemoore messing with this it looks like the h-card shows up on the author page if this is unchecked but its set to on by default for some reason in the #indieweb plugin.

Picking a toot: a short write-up on adding “Share to #Mastodon” links to the Wok via #tootpick

(This is also my first test to see if it works, and it seems to work so far.)

I recall seeing some kind of challenge to publish 100 blog posts in a year, anyone know who 'sponsored' or is 'running' that challenge? They also kept a running list of people who were successful at that - there was some good content there, but I forgot to bookmark it. #indieweb

Edit: aha, just as quick as I posted this, I clicked #indieweb and saw the hashtag #100DaysofIndieWeb which is what I was thinking of.

The IndieWeb event about Webmention just finished, and it was great!

Thanks a ton to James for such an informative talk! I learned a lot! These sorts of presentations are so valuable, especially for us newbies. There's so much to learn and talks like this help so much.

(There will be a recording posted soon! I think he said it will be on the event page but I'm not sure of that: https://www.codementor.io/events/decentralized-website-communication-with-webmention-fwusximcte)

@mcg @geniodiabolico@bookrastinating.com That's exactly how I use the blog. I used to auto-post to FB, bird site, Tumblr, Google plus. Now I just post and it is activity I see herd. I boosted the most recent podcast the other day.

It also implies that the #indieweb #POSSE strategy is still perfectly viable in the #fediverse

RSVP yes to Decentralized Website Communication with Webmention scheduled for 2023-01-15 1pm EST

While we are getting our #indieweb on, I had the urge to explore alternatives to GoodReads. I did the export and imported to #bookwyrm. It was mostly successful, a few stragglers that need manual input.

Because it is #ActivityPub driven, you can follow from #mastodon. I updated my current book and got it here as a standard toot, which I boosted just for fun.

It seems to do all the book tracking I want plus #fediverse ftw!

Thanks to Paul Robert Lloyd’s Indiekit, this post started life on my personal website, and was auto-syndicated to Mastodon. The future! #indieweb #POSSE

Previously^1 I asked "How should we @ someone [on the #IndieWeb]?" & suggested we use @-domain. With some web spelunking, the earliest such use I found was 2013-03-26 (~10y ago!) by @eschnou.com, maybe^2 the first #siteToSite #federated #atMention!

 "And my first ever #indieweb pingback goes to @tantek.com, @aaronparecki.com and @waterpigs.co.uk ! Yes, I can now federate... well.. if I can manage to get it to interop :-)"

Though the original post disappeared in a site update (and was unarchived), you can see it on the Internet Archive of @eschnou.com’s #IndieWeb tag page: https://web.archive.org/web/20130609045145/http://eschnou.com/tag/indieweb#2013Mar26

At the time, Barnaby (@waterpigs.co.uk) did confirm receiving that @-mention on his site via Pingback (this was before Webmention was a thing^3): https://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/1199/ (https://twitter.com/BarnabyWalters/status/316664943820812289)

@eschnou.com also asked in the IndieWeb chat if @aaronparecki.com had gotten his @-domain mention: https://chat.indieweb.org/2013-03-26#t1364333721000000
You can see at the bottom of that chat log that he did.

I myself started using @-domain in my posts ~4 years later in 2017: https://tantek.com/2017/345/t1/aaronpk-paid-thanks (https://twitter.com/t/status/940382393097228288) though only when the same person controlled the domain and the Twitter @-name of the first part of the domain name before the "." (which was/is not many people).

I think that was my earliest use because two days after that post I added @-domain auto-linking to the https://tantek.com/github/cassis (@cassisjs) "auto_link" function https://github.com/tantek/cassis/commit/0e8e6270c0a3b600423c283f59b5d22c3648d59a (https://twitter.com/cassisjs/status/941107922318381057), likely having already tested it in production on my own site with that post.

I’m still #testingInProduction the updates noted in ^3, notably "https:" for all @-mentions (@-name @-domain @-@) and hope to merge them into the repo soon. Aside: both that and the #testInProduction hashtag have hilarious Twitter results^4.

Does anyone know of any other auto-linkers that support linking @-domain in plain text to an https URL of that domain? Extra internet points if they also support @-@ auto-linking.

This is day 14 of #100DaysOfIndieWeb #100Days.

→ 🔮

^1 Day 11: https://tantek.com/2023/011/t1/indieweb-evolving-at-mention
^2 I’m curious if StatusNet, OStatus, or OpenMicroBlogging had an explicit syntax for site-to-site @-mentions, whether any of them resembled @-domain, and is there evidence of their earliest @-mention usage (if any) still visible on the web (or Internet Archive) cc: @evanp.me (@evan@prodromou.pub)
^3 https://tantek.com/2023/012/t1/six-years-webmention-w3c
^4 Navigating to Twitter hashtag results left as an exercise to the reader, to provide a deliberate soft barrier to a potential doomscrolling trap.

As someone who has long waxed poetic about the quirky free-spiritedness and DIY ethos of the early web, it makes me so happy to see more people talking about things like blogs, personal sites, the #fediverse, and the #indieweb. I've loved tech for as long as I can remember, but in the aftermath of the burnout that came from working in the industry, I worried that I might never again find the joy in it. But I'm finding more reasons to be hopeful

@daviddelven@pkm.social self-hosting^1 is plumbing^2, does not impact key user functionality, and thus not required for an #IndieWeb site.

You can switch your site from self-hosted to service-hosted & back and it won’t affect your domain, permalinks, content, readers, peer-to-peer comments, or any other IndieWeb user features.

Lastly, “self-hosting” means different things to different people. Some insist it means you have personal physical control of hardware, like a server in your home or garage, some are ok with a physical server in a personal colo cage under lock & key, or a shared colo cage, or a virtual “cloud” server without a physical location.

Per the IndieWeb plurality^3 principle, people can use a self-hosted (under any of those definitions) site or a service-hosted site to publish & interact with each other.

Looked at the birdsite quickly and saw that people who have been dead silent at all the other shit Elon's been up to are suddenly up in arms over his lack of transparency now that their favorite probably more accessible third-party client is no longer working. Tempted to shitpost about how #indieweb and Mastodon still have third-party client support.
