I’m going to start the process of enabling ActivityPub support for older Micro.blog accounts this week, likely tomorrow. You’ll be able to disable it if you don’t want it. But in the long run it’ll help bridge conversations across the networks.

@axbom @eric I wish we had an #indieweb Technorati. I want to browse and subscribe to people blogging around certain tags again.

Woohoo, my #AstroWebsite now has a proper domain. I decided that it was just easier to create a subdomain, so now you can access my tech blog at http://frontmatter.elizabethtai.com/

I think the SSL certs will take some time to kick in.

I think.

Next ... perhaps ... to figure out how to implement web mentions 😅 Hooo boooy #IndieWeb

#Website

@DerBuddler "Es ist kompliziert".

Falls deine Frage ist ob ich mich noch auf Twitter herum treibe dann ist die Antwort ein klares Nein 😜

Ansonsten halte ich es nach dem #POSSE Prinzip des #IndieWeb.

Today, I read many of the Articles on the Webmention page. Admittedly, there are many that are geared towards non-WordPress implementations. There is also history embedded into many of the articles. Tomorrow, I will update my plan and move on to starting to learn how to build a block editor pattern.

Day 16 of 100 #100DaysofIndieWeb, #IndieWeb, #ProjectJournal, #WordPress (https://tmichellemoore.com/?p=152296)

So visited #Twitter to check up on my friends and saw one of my follows lament the end of Tweetbot by @tapbots which I totally get.

But she says she will hang on cos Twitter is her home.

At which point I had to nag her to join #Mastodon

She's an influencer in her field, so I guess the network effects are hard to let go.

But still? Why hang out in a place that made you so miserable you stopped posting?

We really need to spread #POSSE #IndieWeb principles.

@AnokheeTara@ohai.social indeed “drinking our own champagne” / “drinking your own champagne” was one of the proposed alternatives when the community was renaming “selfdogfooding”, though it had some downsides:

https://indieweb.org/selfdogfood#drinking_our_own_champagne

I like your points about emphasizing where something is amazing, and encouraging more fun and celebration. More positive metaphors!

“taste your own cooking” is an excellent encouragement and variant of “eat what you cook” — I added it to the wiki (and quoted you if you don’t mind!) https://indieweb.org/eat_what_you_cook#Variants

I have finally taken the first step towards implementing my own Micropub endpoint. Only notes (what I for some reason prefer to call posts) currently provisioned for but I can see the attraction of opening up my possibilities for adding content to my own site (and from there to re-posting in the silos). Feels good to bring the dev skills back online (albeit slowly - and wow the code is brittle right now) 😀 #indieweb #micropub

@elizabethtai.com (@liztai@hachyderm.io) either is an excellent and challenging #100Days project.

Join us in the #IndieWeb chat https://chat.indieweb.org/ for tips and help with figuring out the domain thing!
@elizabethtai.com (@liztai@hachyderm.io @liztai) Welcome and good luck with shifting to your domain name!

By “post 1 post a day in the #Indieweb way” it sounds like you’ve started a 100 days of blogging project (which is great!) rather than posting about IndieWeb topics in particular.

Also great if you do plan to specifically write about your #IndieWeb adventures (that’s more the intent of #100DaysOfIndieWeb), like choosing/setting up your domain, your personal publishing flow, how you are publishing on your own site and distributing your posts on Mastodon etc.

Whichever you choose, use your primary domain @elizabethtai.com to sign-in to the IndieWeb wiki and add yourself to the respective subsection here:

Make your own simple, public, searchable Twitter archive

Make your own simple, public, searchable Twitter archive

Found something I wrote in 2009, when Yahoo shut down Geocities:

"It’s funny: the things we expect to disappear from the web often don’t, but the things we expect to be permanent often do drop out of existence. GeoCities appeared 14 years ago. Will today’s blogs, Facebook pages, forums, and wikis still be around 14 years from now?"

https://speedforce.org/2009/10/geocities-rip/

The blog I posted it on is still there. A lot of sites it linked to aren't.

#permanence #SelfHosting #linkrot #Geocities #Indieweb

3 weeks since the 1st, since asking you to own your notes^1

Still tweeting in Big Chad’s garage or tooting in little Chad’s garage next door?^2 What's the delay?

Choosing a domain name?^3
Or a service or other path?^4
Or #TwitterMigration to #Mastodon?

Two #IndieWeb alternatives to owning your notes (https://micro.blog/ or https://fed.brid.gy/, either with your own domain) both support migrating your followers from Mastodon.

For example, I migrated my experimental @t@xoxo.zone Mastodon account to my own site^5, @tantek.com, thanks to the migration support in Bridgy Fed.

If you’re not sure where you’d like to migrate, you can try https://micro.blog/ for 30 days to see if it works for you.

If you’re a #webDev or otherwise like to tinker, it’s well worth the time to setup your own website with an SSG or CMS^6 or your own code, and grow it incrementally as you post and have time to do so.

Either way, drop by https://chat.indieweb.org/ and ask any questions you have.

There’s a whole community that wants you to succeed, that wants to help you own your notes.


This is day 21 of #100DaysOfIndieWeb #100Days, written the night after.

Prueba a comer lo que cocinas en tu propia web (usa lo que haces)

En mi último post de Blogpocket (serie Focus on today)

#indieweb #productividad #minimalismo #slowblogging

https://www.blogpocket.com/2023/01/23/prueba-a-comer-lo-que-cocinas-en-tu-propia-web/

If I want a static HTML site to show up as a followable #ActivityPub actor, what would I have to do to make it happen? 🤔 I seem to remember having seen someone pull off something like that a little while ago. #WebDev #IndieWeb

Today, I diverged just a little bit to test my Micropub implementation using Micropub.Rocks. According to the site it will “** _Micropub Rocks!_** is a validator to help you test your Micropub implementation. Several kinds of tests are available on the site.”

Day 15 of 100 #100DaysofIndieWeb, #IndieWeb, #ProjectJournal

## Project Journal: IndieWeb Webmentions: Planning – Learning Day 6 (https://tmichellemoore.com/?p=152288)

One of our #IndieWeb principles is Use What You Make^1. We use the metaphor Eat What You Cook^2 to more broadly relate to creators^3 of all kinds, the chefs & cooks of the IndieWeb.

Cooks often taste their dishes while cooking, and modify them accordingly. Some even prepare entire dishes or meals to try themselves first, before preparing them for others.

On the IndieWeb, some of us do the same by first testing our own code changes in production^4 on our personal sites, before publishing them more widely. Sometimes we let our changes simmer on our own sites for a while, before serving our code for others to consume.

I myself have been most recently testing in production my at-mention auto-linking updates^5 on my site for over a week now. They seem to be working well, and I haven’t noticed any errors or regressions, so I’ll likely roll at least some of those changes into the CASSIS GitHub repo soon.

While testing in production may be a reasonable & good practice for personal sites, it’s often a bad idea for corporate or critical web sites or services, and there’s no shortage of such examples.

I have been wanting to write about our IndieWeb “test in production” practices for a while, and finally created a separate page on the IndieWeb wiki accordingly^4, organizing content from other pages, and adding examples beyond the IndieWeb as well.

Do you write code for your website that you test there in production before sharing it more broadly on GitHub etc.? Add yourself to the examples section^6

Thanks to Chris Aldrich (https://boffosocko.com/) for the eating what you cook banner image.

This is day 20 of #100DaysOfIndieWeb #100Days, written two days after. I have some double days ahead of me.
