The idea that there could be a part of the web that is usable by smaller browsers and without any JavaScript support, without hitting walls of JS web apps (which currently also excludes the majority of annoying and intrusive ads, much of the tracking, sites with AI generated non-information, etc.) is one that keeps coming up in my mind.
It would be so nice if the web, or a sbset of it, could be used with sensible use of the possibilities of existing technologies.
It's the web. Hyperlinked text, images, even arbitrary file downloads are possible. There are better ways to implement chats, email, live street navigation, image editing and all the other applications that exist in the web today.
What's the right tag to use for this topic? #SmallWeb #Smolweb #FreeWeb #IndieWeb #OpenWeb ? I guess I'll have to follow all of them to get many posts about this. What else should I look at or follow if I'm interested in seeing such an accessible web become more relevant and usable?

@trey I wish there were more overlap between the #DIY web and the interactive web. I think one formidable entry barrier for interactivity is the sheer aggressiveness of #spam. Put anything at all on the web that gives the public read/write access and spam account creation, spam comments, spam wiki articles, etc. will outpace legit contributions by orders of magnitude. The #IndieWeb folks are onto something with #WebMention, but downside is it becomes a conversation between netizens who self-host. No good answers in the age of the commercial web.

@hack13
Most users tend to pick a side of things, but recently I chose option 3: write it on my website then syndicate it like a weirdo lmao
I do this because I believe in connecting not so much to the social network platform, but to the people themselves. The social graph is more important than what or where it is.
Incidents with Twitter and Reddit have demonstrated how users are driven away, so I make a conscious effort to stay connected with the friendships I’ve made across the networks that I believe in (or at least don’t actively hate). This way everyone knows where to find me if one day either network collapses, or if a new one appears that people really want to flock to.

I could probably use a source of income. If anyone has job leads on things like:
• Sound design
• Music composition
• Video editing
• Software engineering (C++ and Python in particular, especially for #IndieWeb type stuff)
I'd greatly appreciate it.
I have a resume available at https://beesbuzz.biz/resume and of course you can see my website for creative outputs and so on.

What I’m learning from writing notes and syndicating it to social networks is that because it takes a bunch more time to do, I’ve found myself writing longer and longer notes.
Here’s what this process currently looks like:
- I compose a new note on my website with whatever I want to post, and save it. This includes:
- The title
- If I’m replying to someone, link to the post I’m responding to
- The content
- Images if needed
- Tags
- I create a shortlink that can be shared on the social network.
- A title (this is internal to the CMS and only for organisation)
- Link to the note
- A URL slug
- I syndicate the post across to the social networks I want, including the backlink to my published note on my site
- For ActivityPub, I can copy the content across with minimal changes since I have an extremely high character limit, and it supports Markdown so it’s usually one and done.
- For others with a character limit (like bsky), I copy as much of the content as I can, including tags, then truncate the rest with the link back to the original.
- I then edit my note to link to all the syndicated copies.
So yes, it’s a lot of work but it seems that by doing that I force myself to think a bit more before I write or reply to a post, which is better for those kinds of things.
At other times I just wanna write a quick reply so it’s less good at doing that lmao

If I ever do “roll out” https://www.indie.lol, it’s going to be fairly minimal and block-based, and … well, it’s all there:
1. Sites support IndieAuth and Micropub—and, thus, posting from Micropub apps.
2. There are plans to eventually add ActivityPub. And Markdown support. And a built-in feed reader. And (optional) cross-posting to Mastodon.
3. Use of a custom domain is highly encouraged!
It’d be WordPress + a minimal but customizable block theme + very few plugins, YET #IndieWeb-ready

Hi #fediverse and #indieweb - is there a #microformats #activityPub (maybe via #rss?) bridge of some kind to push content to mastodon? Any link or advice that would work for https://hroy.eu/blog/ (not WordPress)?

It took me quite a while to figure out all the steps to connect the fediverse to my hugo blog but it seems to have worked. I wrote my experiences here: https://omaramin.me/posts/fediversecomments/
I'm not sure I want to go all the way with Indieweb as it seems exponentially more complicated unless you are an experienced webdev or the theme you use supports it out of the box but I will tinker and see how far I get.

@benpate @YurkshireLad I agree, and I can't personally decide how I feel about it. On the one hand, the way I see the #indieweb, it's trying to revive the vibrancy of the early internet, which was built on homespun websites that people owned and actively experimented on. The ol' thousand flowers blooming model of invention and creativity. People collectively find what works and then share those ideas.
But, as you say, that makes it much harder to bring in newcomers.
