@leigh @leigh from my experience: #ttrpg is a mixed bag with a good number having jumped to Mastodon and large percentage of others staying over there. In general if they have a game/podcast/convention to promote then they stayed on Twitter due to better reach.

#webdev is also mixed. It seems like the #indieweb aligned folks who like their vanilla html/js/css are all here. The framework folks stayed on Twitter or are doing both.

FediForum is this week! On Thursday I’ll be demoing how Micro.blog fits into the fediverse, and I’ll join in other sessions when I can. You can see the schedule here.

This is probably nothing new to #Mastodon folks, but still an interesting #podcast. Cal Newport talks about the importance of building your online presence on a website you own, #POSSE (though he doesn't quite call it that) and why the promise of #Twitter virality isn't worth it.

Next I'd like to join a #webring. Maybe I'll even set one up myself!

Maybe I'll add some sort of guest book.

I could even create a #website award! Who else remembers giving out and receiving website awards?

I've been working on my "Classic Homepage Project" for a while, and I think it's time to share it.

Visit my website at https://www.shannonkay.com or magically at https://🦄.shannonkay.com

It's handwritten html/css and hosted on my #Synology NAS.

I also want to encourage others to make their own homepages and other personal websites. It's fun!

When it comes to creating content online, we should always #POSSE - Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere

But I also PESOS - Publish Elsewhere, Syndicate (to your) Own Site.

Basically, I turn some #SocialMedia posts into blog posts. I find that PESOS suits me better as I like to come up with posts on the fly, and it's easier to write longer articles from them.

#Blog updated: Some thoughts on the difficulty of getting a #GameDev job at an entry level, how inequality perpetuates itself, and what we can do to help.

#IndieWeb

Seeing the split community between Mastodon and Twitter kind of makes me want to double down on blogging instead.

Be a bit more focused on value over volume and finding my way back to my #IndieWeb roots.

I made a thing! You can find my new homepage at https://daniel.mowitz.rocks
I'm not sure wether it counts as #smallWeb but at least you can access it without JavaScript and everything still works!

Is someone interested in helping me build an #IndieWeb and/or #fediverse #wapuu (my first draft is a bit amateurish https://github.com/pfefferle/indie-wapuu 😂 )

Heck yes. Upgraded to latest #Pixelfed release and now Pixeldroid properly reports boosts.

The speed with which new features and bug fixes are being shipped in fedi software is a joy to experience. All the more so since these folks actually publish release notes and change logs.

I'm finally dipping my toes into an auto-poster setup using the Share on Mastodon plugin:

Fingers crossed that this works as-expected, although I'm sure I'll end up with some formatting oddities in the short-term. It'll be worth it, though!

New blog scrap: Sadness - Making and Receiving

This scrap is a brain dump of overcoming one of my worst habits, making myself sad.

#IndieWeb #Blog #MentalHealth #Depression
https://www.vzqk50.com/blog/scraps/making-myself-sad/

really excited for next month's #queer #tech meetup in #bristol - we'll be talking about what leadership looks like for queers.

It's a topic I've become really interested in lately - I feel corporate environments often fail those who don't fit the expected profile of a "senior" person.

Hello, internet | Sam O’Neill

I have been reminded time and time again of the utility of writing. How it is a way to turn messy thoughts into coherent ideas, and how – as we all know – practice makes perfect. So I’m going to give it a go.

Welcome to the indie web, Sam!

How to sell the fediverse and decentralization to the masses:

“Imagine doing all the stuff you do today on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter…but doing it without battling some random corporate algorithm, minus all the advertising and tracking, and knowing you aren’t making a billionaire billionairier.”
