It’s a very autumnal IndieWebCamp in Nuremberg this weekend.

Looks like some great session topics at IndieWebCamp Nuremberg. I wasn’t organized enough to attend remotely because of the time zone difference… Catching up on the notes and chat now.

This was a test of an entirely new streaming upload architecture for my micropub endpoint now that it uses Netlify Functions V2 (which uses browser Request and Response objects). It’s mixed streams due to how multipart bodies have to be decoded, so I’m surprised that this worked on the first go. You’re seeing it here thanks to a GitHub Actions workflow doing POSSE. #indieweb

Last week, I sent out the first issue of Own Your Web, my new newsletter about designing, building, creating, and publishing on the Web – and the power of personal sites.

Vandaag is Global PSC Awareness Day. Ik schreef er een blogpost over, eveneens in het kader van de #Indieweb Carnival.

every time I try searching for "serverless" (no, not /that/ serverless), I come up with a blank.

so... you can serve a bunch of static content via HTTP (or indeed, via S3 or #veilid or #torrent)

you can build up nice RSS feeds to pull content

but how do you notify a site owner that you'd like them to read messages on your site?

what's the secure, relatively minimal, relatively RCE-free, indieweb/selfhosted way to do that? e.g., no central server

a tor site with just one webhook spot?

dns records?

DHT search?

social network but over S3 and S3 keys?

social network over HTTP-RSS and email?

minimal vuln / attack surface approach would be good.

like, something you'd be okay running on a laptop

the RSS-FTP-upload thing kinda works because it's a poster you upload (see XKCD / CIA defacement)

as long as you have some kind of method for an inbox.... which is the rub.

maybe an HTTP file server with /one/ CGI script?

minimalism... minimal features... SMTP/HTTP/Tor ugh #cybersecurity #p2p #indieweb

GoToSocial

I’ve been playing around the last few days with GoToSocial, which is a federated social media application that implements ActivityPub.

Stop the Linkrot

So, let's join the Indieweb movement and empower musicians to take control of their online presence, foster authentic connections, and celebrate their artistic freedom. It's about embracing ownership, privacy, community, and sustainability. Together, let's build a decentralized and inclusive musical landscape that puts musicians and their fans at the heart of it all. 🎵🌐❤️

In the spirit of POSSE, I just spent 3 hours trying to get some backfeeds from silos like Instagram and Facebook going… I made it work before, but I can’t remember what I did with my last website that made it work.

It’s a real head scratcher. I guess I’ll need to ensure crossposting is turned on here at StarrWulfe HQ then I won’t have to deal with this foolishness again.

If anyone has some experience with Brid.gy and how to do this effectively, please give me a shout. 🙇🏾‍♀️

Publish Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere (POSSE).

The idea is that you, the poster, should post on a website that you own. Not an app that can go away and take all your posts with it, not a platform with ever-shifting rules and algorithms. Your website.
