@hamatti oh awesome! I'm definitely going to make one of these now. I've had a lot of fun adding these types of things recently. My site features a "roadmap", change log, tags page, resume, humans.txt, security.txt, IndieWeb.txt, and all sorts of other fun things.

I've also recently learned of /now, /TIL, /setup which ill be adding soon too. Currently working on an #indieweb notes collection, webmentions, and other IndieWeb features.

@maffeis #ActivityPub is for federation whereas #micropub and #microsub are for interacting with your instance, so they are not really exclusive though.

Micropub is already supported by tools like micro.blog, @ia Writer and such.

Not sure if anyone has implemented it on top of an ActivityPub backend though.

#Webmention, #WebSub and #Microformats would be the more direct #IndieWeb “competitor” to ActivityPub, but eg @snarfed.org and @pfefferle are both showing that the two can be bridged

@maffeis I like how the #IndieWeb is approaching this with #MicroPub and #MicroSub:

* https://indieweb.org/Micropub
* https://indieweb.org/Microsub

Clients can chose to implement one or both of those.

A typical social media app would implement both.

An app that’s meant only for authoring posts picks just MicroPub and an app that’s simply meant for consumption picks just MicroSub.

I find the #Fediverse / #Mastodon focus on #ActivityPub as the one and only API to be a bit lackluster in that regard.

Honestly, I view myself as an example of somebody that a lot of people on in the Fediverse would have probably given up on. They would have probably not considered me as somebody that could have ever joined or cared.

I'm a marketer. So I represent the corporate interests. In many ways. For many people. I am a tech marketer, I've often really enjoyed the corporate social media platforms, like you'd look at me year ago, and you think: "now, like, this person would never join Mastodon, she'd never bother, she would never become an advocate for it". But I did join! I didn't really know what I was getting into. I just wanted to keep up with some people.

And now I care a lot and I keep trying to learn more. And I've taught other people about it and people are listening. You get 100 Mariyas out there, and you know that you're starting to make a difference, right? You get 1000 Mariyas out there, you know, something's actually going to happen. It's a movement.

I want some inspiration, so share your favorite /uses pages from the indie web!

just pouring one out for my twittr

Twitter is being rebranded as X. So, if one “tweets” on Twitter, will one then be “eX-iting” posts on X?
I think it’s a perfect time to eXit the entire platform. #IndieWeb #eXiting

Behold! Themes and a theme toggle on my site (shellsharks.com)! I thiiink all the bugs have been worked outta the toggle (and other changes I’ve made over the past few days). So much work for such a little thing. But I know a lot more about CSS now that’s for sure.

I’m still tuning the color palettes a bit but am comfortable enough with where things sit now.

Speak up. When something doesn't work. When someone is being hurt. When you don't agree. Speak up. Someone has to. It's a burden to see more, it's a duty and a privilege. So take care and speak up. You would be surprised how many people think the same and are equally afraid to speak up. Someone has to be the first.

It’s not always easy to speak up, even more, if you’re the first. Good for you if other voices join yours. But if not, that’s ok too, even though some people might not like what you are saying.
