I’ve kept a fairly regular links section going on this site for a few years now, but I’ve been neglecting it recently, mainly due to posting directly to Mastodon. Relatedly: been trying to get POSSE-ing again, so good to see how posts from the site appear elsewhere (i.e. am testing).

A question for the #ActivityPub #WebMentions #IndieWeb experts: We used to have WebMentions displayed as comments on @osi blog. Now the mentions only show up as icons, without the content of the mention and no direct link to the #Mastodon mention itself
Why this changed? How to get the full comment in #WordPress again?

Folks, my teenager is interested in starting his own weblog so he can write about video games. He does not necessarily want to start out with learning HTML and CSS, so a hosted service might be best. What’s a good place for a beginner?

Hello #indieweb, #writing and #webdev. Do you know stretchtext (aka telescopic text, aka expando)? Ever seen it in action? Has any thoughts on it?
Example: @tectonic's page: https://andrewcantino.com/
Doing some field research before consolidating an opinion and a blog post on it. Maybe.

Because however much I do really like the fediverse – conceptually and practically, it turns out – just providing me with a box to type shit in and then have that shit starred and “boosted” (or not) is not a good thing. I knew this first time round. I miss good writing. I reload the page a lot. I need the feedreader and the website back.

I'm setting up an #indieweb website to "own my voice" via federation and self-hosting. I'm not sure how it all works but i'm following along some tutorials at indieweb.org and following in the footsteps of our fearless "leader" @david . you can check it out at https://norcalgeek.com.

What do you all think about low-data / low-energy ways to implement replies to messages in a relational database, that are resilient long-term? You can see the app in question here: https://groundtalk.land/feed (and code here: https://github.com/sbutler-gh/coop-media)
The app currently gets all messages from the database, returns them as HTML, and caches them in localStorage. On subsequent page loads, it gets messages from localStorage first and then only checks the database for newer messages.
Thinking about how to implement replies on top of this this (also, welcoming input on the overall architecture as well).
Hacker News/Reddit nested replies is what's coming to mind, for informational architecture at least? I don't know how heavy it is to implement finding all the replies at each nested level and then rendering them in HTML. Probably much simpler technically with Twitter/Mastodon style (no nesting display), but kind of feels like nesting is the right direction for informational longevity (which is part of the idea)? Then again, not necessarily assuming that nesting a la HN/Reddit nesting always leads to better discussions.
What do you all think?

As the fediverse grows, new people will hear about Micro.blog and send us feedback about how we can improve. Always good! I listen to everything. On the other hand, the fact that the fediverse is so big means we can do things differently and still be successful. Not all platforms should be the same.

@ademagic Same here. It’s an interesting concept but really hard to execute. It would be nice to have a chart for the #indieweb rabbit hole. OTOH we don’t want people pointing fingers to a website and saying “that’s not as indie as I am”, hence the difficulty of making this work without levels or hierarchies.
I daydream something akin to a skill tree common in RPGs, where people are free to diverge on their “builds”.

Came across the idea of the IndieMark metric not long ago. Sounds so good at first, but the deeper you go into the levels I wonder if it's still worth the effort?
I realise it's an early stage concept but in any case, a great list of things you can do for your #personalsite
