Inspired by Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic) , I've been thinking about the IndieWeb idea of POSSE (Publish on your Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere, see https://indieweb.org/POSSE) and how to extend the reach of my blog posts. So I'm trying something new and syndicating blog posts to dev.to.

dev.to makes this quite nice with native support a "canonical URL" for posts originally published elsewhere. It's also pretty easy to repost existing content to since it supports Markdown (my posts are written in reStructuredText for my website but can be easily converted to Markdown using pandoc) and future posts can be automatically shared to dev.to via an RSS feed.

So, assuming I don't find any reason to cancel this experiment, you'll be able to read my writing at https://dev.to/pbarker as well as here on Mastodon and on my website.

My blog (https://decodedHTML.com) is built using Rust's 🦀 mdbook. Which is a tool to build books using markdown.

Moving into the indie web, I was too much concerned about the design and other features, that I forgot what I should use the indie web space for.

It's now a kind of devlog. Is indie web a fancy word for devlog? 🤔

Webmention for WordPress 5.0 Released - April 9, 2023

After a bit of break, I'm back at it with #webmentions. I am now wondering, if it is possible for someone to reply to a comment on a post?

This sounds a bit stupid because obviously that has to work. But I've never seen a webmention-powered comment section that actually has threads. Are there any examples out there on the #indieweb?

So on the day that my 16 year old bird site has been consigned to oblivion, I have taken my first baby step into #indieweb by publishing my own notes site as a canonical home for all of my content that isn't proper blogging or main website stuff. You can find it here: https://rustyniall.com .

It'll be a proper home for drafts, ephemera, anomalies and abominations going forward.

It still needs plenty of work but the BBC Micro text adventure aesthetic is completely intentional and will remain that way until another retro-fad-infatuation turns my head.

I’m honestly very excited about the possibility of a revival of blogging and so forth, but I’d love to see the word “content” thrown into the dustbin. I don’t create “content”. I write (occasionally). And my writing isn’t just the grist for some corporate mill; my blog isn’t just a source of inventory for some ad network to monetize.

Thinking about starting a personal blog soon. This article really spoke to me 😍 #indieweb https://manuelmoreale.com/unsolicited-blogging-advice

After a 4-day session, I deployed a complete refactor of my website. All remnants of bloated frameworks, such as Bootstrap, are gone. Most classes in my markup are for Indieweb purposes.

I have reduced the homepage size to 63 KB uncompressed, with 0.01g of CO2 produced.

I've also added a credits page with links to the people who inspired me with ideas and tools, such as: @silviamaggi @lkhrs @zinzy @chris @jefklak @tdarb @ru @kev @rubenerd

I've published indie-org.sh, a demonstration site for my Emacs package indie-org, which helps you put Org Mode static sites on the Indieweb. #emacs #orgmode #indieweb (https://www.unwoundstack.com/blog/indie-org.sh.html)

The Fediverse Report continues their great summarization of recent hot topics. On trademarks, Eugen is certainly within his right to trademark Mastodon. I chose not to trademark Micro.blog because it’s too close to microblog, which is a word everyone can use. I also prefer “social web” to fediverse.

I see potential with this #IndieWeb #WebRing implementation. Still a bit dev-elite with the whole GitHub as admin tool thing but it does offer an alternate route for non-dev participants.

Adding this to my long list of things to fiddle with.

Thanks @mxbck

hi 👋​​​👋​​​👋​​​

My name is anova, new to sovereign.lgbt but quite old to the fediverse. I like writing code that's ideologically and/or intellectually insulting to computer nerds, recording over recycled cassette tapes, going on bike rides and disrupting power structures.

excited to meet you all!!

Twitter is shutting down API access weeks before the deadline they announced and sent to developers.

#IndieWeb service #Bridgy got hit. Just a few minutes ago, #ThreadReaderApp announced their access was terminated as well.
