Seeing as I've thought of some other things I didn't manage to squeeze in last time, here's another #introduction - Lately I've been #writing tiny generic #fantasy #horror adventures in #pocketmod format for #ttrpgs. I plan to put these up on Itch. And maybe I'll put together a #neocities page since I come from a #retroweb era and find the resurrected #indieweb movement very interesting. That dovetails with my ongoing interests in #politics #psychology and #philosophy. Proudest sport moment: I once took a brilliant hat-trick in indoor #cricket, Warne-style, with my legspin bowling - completely bamboozling the batsman. From #australia. Also: #markdown #libreoffice #Obsidian and #pandoc and occasionally #linux

While my posting frequency isn't very high most of the time my lurking frequency is. No matter how busy I am I always scroll through just to see what everyone is talking about. I like the little pond I swim in here at twit.social. I love the fediverse because of the energy it has for things that I am interested in like #indieweb #wordpress #photography and a few other topics. I enjoy the people I've discovered here too. This truly has been the best social network experience for me yet.

@KelsonV There is a sub discussion going on about how there are very many diff platforms are there that make up Fediverse. Which prompts this theorem: in the limit Fediverse is #IndieWeb!

Instead of posting on a personal #IndieWeb site (& POSSE copies), some post primarily to a #fediverse instance and syndicate to Twitter, or vice-versa. How to reply^1 to such posts, e.g.:

Reply to a toot (& POSSE tweet): https://tantek.com/2023/019/t4
* @-@ (Twitter @-name)

This is a variant of case (2) in https://tantek.com/2023/018/t1/elevate-indieweb-above-silo.

We can update the directive and two questions in that post accordingly:

* Elevate #IndieWeb domains above @-@ addresses, and those above any silo identities

1. Do they have an #IndieWeb domain? Then @-domain mention them^2, like you are speaking to them at their domain identity. This will notify them there, or at least reinforce their domain’s importance.

2. Was their post only published on a #fediverse instance (and/or silo), or was it POSSEd to a fediverse instance (and/or silo) and do you plan to federate (and/or POSSE) your reply^3?
Then use their @-@ address or silo @-name, or @-@ (silo @-name) for both, or (@-@, silo @-name) parenthetically following their @-domain if (1). This will notify them on that instance (or silo), and may help thread your POSSE reply.

When posting a reply, you (or your CMS automatically) should explicitly link with u-in-reply-to markup^4 to the post your are replying to, and any of its syndicated copy permalinks on destinations you plan to POSSE your reply (see also multi-reply^5).

"...a part of me has been resisting blogging. In fact, each time I thought about writing a blog post, I felt tired. Really tired."

When I wrote this post, I didn't understand why I was so turned off and depressed about blogging - something that gave me joy.

On #Mastodon I discovered people who missed good ol personal #blogging like I did.

2023 is the year I embrace #IndieWeb principles.

rolandtanglao.com (@roland@devdilettante.com) thanks for the kind words and yes I was at W3C TPAC in Vancouver, would have been nice to chat!

You’re right, neither ActivityPub, Webmention, nor h-entry for that matter have any explicit length limits.

You can run “an experimental 10,000 character limit AP implementation” on your existing site rolandtanglao.com with a few webdev steps:

Setup Bridgy Fed support on your site:
* https://fed.brid.gy/docs#setup (SSL, /.well-known/ server redirects, homepage h-card)

Add h-entry + h-card markup to your post template:
* https://fed.brid.gy/docs#how-post

Then send Bridgy Fed a Webmention when you publish a post.

Presto, you’re running an AP implementation without a character limit!

Happy to help with any of those steps. Drop by https://chat.indieweb.org/dev!

Today, I have read up to Articles on the Webmention page. If you are a developer there are many ways for you to implement Webmentions. If you are not a developer, you are not left out. There are plugins or website that provide the functionality. On this WordPress site, I use the Webmention plug-in by Matthias Pfefferle and David Shanske.

Day 12 of 100 #100DaysofIndieWeb, #IndieWeb, #ProjectJournal, #WordPress

@swart@mastodon.cloud my #IndieWeb site https://tantek.com/, which runs its own software, doesn’t have any explicit length limit, nor does https://fed.brid.gy/, the service I use to federate to ActivityPub followers such as Mastodon instances.

Both client & server as it were. I haven’t seen it cause any problems with other instances yet.

I am using a Shortcut to post via #Micropub to my website, which automatically syndicates to Mastodon. I wish I read, post, reply, and interact from a single app.

"Personal stories on personal #blogs are historical documents," said this Verge article.

This is so true for Christopher, who left behind a treasure trove of thoughts, a record of his brilliance on earth. I feel privileged to have found his #blog.

And that's why we need personal #blogging to return, #algorithms be damned. We can't let these stories disappear into the ether.

The answer to “How should you @-mention someone you are replying to?”^1 can depend on many factors or a few. Context matters somewhat, sometimes.

We can simplify it to 2 questions, based on 1 directive:

* Elevate #IndieWeb domains, above any silo or @-@ identities

Two questions and answers:

1. Do they have an #IndieWeb domain? Then @-domain mention them^2, like you are speaking to them at their domain identity. This will notify them there, or at least reinforce their domain’s importance.

2. Was their post only published on a silo (or #fediverse instance), or was it POSSEd to a silo (or fediverse instance) and you plan to POSSE (or federate) your reply^3? Then @-mention their silo @-name (or @-@ address), in parentheses if (1). This will notify them on that silo (or instance), and may help thread your POSSE reply.


Examples:


If the author has their own domain:

Reply to an IndieWeb post (& POSSE toot): https://tantek.com/2023/008/t1/
* @-domain (@-@)

Reply to an IndieWeb post (& POSSE tweet): https://tantek.com/2023/016/t1/
* @-domain [that matches their Twitter @-name]

Reply to a toot: https://tantek.com/2023/008/t4/
* @-domain (@-@)

Reply to a tweet: https://tantek.com/2023/002/t2/
* @-domain (Twitter @-name)


If the author does not have their own domain:

Reply to a toot: https://tantek.com/2023/002/t4/
* @-@

Reply to a tweet: none since this series, though it would be of the form:
* Twitter @-name

#IndieWeb #fediverse #100DaysOfIndieWeb #100Days

Tonight, I had some success in my #IndieWeb journey - adding #WebMentions to my blog. I took some shortcuts, but it did help me understand the concepts. Now I can go back and #POSSE it up. 💪

https://www.box464.com/indieweb/2023/01/18/indieweb-webmentions/

I’m not entirely certain when I was turned onto this phrase, but it has stuck with me for quite some time. It’s been sitting as a mobile bookmark for me for at least as long as I’ve owned an iPhone, so maybe going back to 2015-ish. Hapax legomenon – it seems so exotic, and definitely hard to pronounce in casual speech.


Hapax legomenon: a word or an expression that occurs only once within a context: either in the written record of an entire language, in the works of an author, or in a single text. (Definition courtesy of Wikipedia)


I think I may have been alerted to this phrase when doing a nostalgic look at Googlewhacking – trying to find a search result on google that only returns one result. Oddly enough, I do remember the first time hearing (and trying) the sport – it was the night before starting high school, and some friends and I learned about it and ended up finding a few.


I always thought the term would be a good name for a musical side-project, or an album title, but it looks like someone beat me to it.

Managed to mess up links on my blog while changing something else. Some RSS and ActivityPub posts might be wrong while I sort it out.

Today, I am reading the Webmention and Webmention-Developer pages on the IndieWeb.org website. This is going to take a couple of days to review the examples. This is under the task to:

* Learn About Webmentions a Little More Deeply.
