@elizabethtai.com (@liztai@hachyderm.io) Thanks! It took us a while to come up with #POSSE too! Both the concept and name.

Roughly conceptually described in a 2010-05-26 interview^1:

 1. Publish on your own site, own your URLs, your permalinks, and
 2. Syndicate out to other sites. Your text updates to Twitter, your checkins to Foursquare, your photos to Flickr etc.

A few months later in a whiteboard architecture diagram^2.

Then *two years* after that @willnorris.com (@will@willnorris.com) and I finally came up with the name/acronym POSSE!^3

Current social media position: Hoping Twitter doesn’t cut off NetNewsWire’s API access before most people move to Mastodon and NetNewsWire implements Mastodon integration in the meantime. While POSSEing anyway. C’est compliqué. #indieweb #netnewswire #rss #posse

@tmichellemoore Oh I see! Man, 100 days is a lot 😅 But interestingly after starting a linkblog using #Indieweb principles, I'm actually posting at that pace. Hmm!

I think sites like #Wix #Squarespace may not be suitable for #IndieWeb folks.

You may own your content, but it'll be really hard to migrate out from these services.

For wordpress.com, all I have to do is download the XML and import it into a #wordpress .org host provider. There's even a program where you can convert XML into markdown files.
There are very few options for web builders, & I think that's intentional. 2/2

Currently moving from #Squarespace to wordpess.com. Instead of using importing my content via XML, I'm copy and pasting.

I know I know! It's a long story, but the Squarespace XML file introduced so much of weird code blocks & doubled all my images. To get a clean export I would have to remove them from the posts one by one. It would be far quicker to copy & paste. This is the last time I use a service that uses a proprietary web builder :blobfoxangry: 1/2

Today, I am continuing reading the Articles on the Webmention page. I am a little tired this evening so I might not get far. This is under the task to:

* Learn About Webmentions a Little More Deeply.

Day 13 of 100 #100DaysofIndieWeb, #IndieWeb, #ProjectJournal, #WordPress (https://tmichellemoore.com/?p=152164)

It's an obvious one but I'm certainly getting some pleasure out of using Webmentions as a way of updating posts or other artefacts when I forget to do some thing obvious such as add a link for something - I've always hated update in place. #indieweb #webmention

Hey #indieweb people, and in particular #eleventy and other static site people, here's a question:

When tagging your own content, do you create and/or follow any standards?

I'm thinking about things like creating taxonomies/vocabularies, formatting your tags, using multiple taxonomies, etc.

I manage taxonomies for some large-ish sites, and I follow some best practices, plan internal governance, etc., but I've always played fast and loose with my own tagging.

Question! Trying to move away from big #email platforms and wanted to know if as anyone has had success with creating a self-hosted #newsletter / mailing list for #EmailMarketing that integrates with #WordPress ?

#webdevelopment #WordpressPlugins #indieweb

@hollie I just discovered #IndieWeb! I'm not sure if I can implement stuff like webmentions, but I definitely can do #posse
Wish I knew about Indieweb earlier.

@christroll People (ok usually SEO gurus) told me to "get over it" and stop "pining for the past". But I am like you - I want to return to the good old days and refused to accept that this is the way it will be for ever and ever. I also started blogging in the 2000s, and I miss those times so much. The difference was our websites were our social media hubs and we controlled it. Now, it's the opposite. But I think using #IndieWeb principles we can somewhat wriggle out.

@liztai Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. I used to jump around from blog to blog thanks to that “narrow your focus” crap - I have dozens of interests, it feels absolutely diminishing to try and whittle yourself to the shape necessary to fit an algorithm.

I got into #IndieWeb last year and it’s been great, I’ve learned so much and I’m finally blogging for myself and the joy of it (though still trying to figure out the technical aspects!).

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!
