@admadlad @mmasnick I'd just follow the #fediverse hashtag plus any interesting and adjacent tags (I'm a big fan of the #indieweb which shares a lot of the same concepts and ethos) as a starting point and then build out a following list from there.

well that was unexpected! I have a "secret" hashtag in the post, so the post shows up on the #indieweb hashtag page even though I didn't mention #indieweb in the post at all!

WordPress and ActivityPub

@tchambers Huge congratulations to @pfefferle! This is awesome for the #IndieWeb and #Fediverse.

A table of 0 border thickness and simple CSS1 text styles - web design in the late 90s and also the basis of my #neocities site. If you want to go all #retroweb, you gotta experience the tech of the time. No CSS Grid here. Still, not an animated GIF, nested table, spacer, or iFrame in sight - I never went in for them in the 90s anyway. #yesterweb #indieweb

Blog as if there’s an #AI being trained¹ to be you based on your blog posts.

And what if it was trained on your Universal Outbox²?

@wjmaggos @tchambers Would this be possible with simple HTML sites? WordPress seems very dominant already?

I'm very happy for @pfefferle : he's been working tirelessly on lots of #IndieWeb and #Fediverse open-source software over many years. Now Automattic hired him to better integrate Wordpress with ActivityPub, and he got a Techcrunch article to boot! https://techcrunch.com/2023/03/13/wordpress-com-owner-automattic-acquires-an-activitypub-plugin-so-blogs-can-join-the-fediverse/

@aswath : So you are proposing to 1) have a personal website #IndieWeb-style, and 2) use it to #IndieAuth into all #fediverse accounts you have on various Fediverse apps, and 3) somehow (rel=me, maybe?) claim ownership of all of them, so people can understand that's all you "elsewhere"?

What about people who don't have or don't want a personal website, for whatever reason?

New server, new #introduction

Hi, my name is Coby and I like to play videogames, make music and write words and code!

Non-coding stuff:
Lately I have been trying my hand at some casual #speedrunning of Metroid Dread and looking for other games to learn glitches for.
Sometimes I write about nothing in particular on my blog which you can find in my bio.

Coding stuff:
For work I am working on tools for decoupled #JavaScript / #TypeScript front ends for headless CMS solutions aka #Jamstack things. At home I have been working on #IndieWeb things like #Webmentions and a blog engine built on #Obsidian.

I went through a coding bootcamp in 2020 and I'm interested in helping underrepresented people get into the industry, please don't hesitate to reach out!

I feel all fuzzy seeing a younger generation embracing all the fun of making a Web 1.0 #neocities website and just completely geeking out over animated GIFs and stuff like I used to back in the day 😁 #yesterweb #retroweb #indieweb. The web was fun and not boring back then! I really miss that vibe.

I don't normally waste time thinking about Elon Musk, but when I read about Meta working on an ActivityPub-compatible social media network, I did, just for a brief moment, wonder whether it's finally dawning on him that Mastodon's not his real enemy.

That what he's up against is an idea, about a better web, free from people like him. Hm.

IndieWeb Plugin Testing and Suggestions Project

I am testing some IndieWeb plugins and finally decided on how I could go about this. I am going to get the description and all of the features. From there I will test the features if I can. I don’t use the classic theme, therefore there are a few things that I won’t be able to test.
