Hear me out: regular plain old boring cold blooded HTML is almost certainly a better format than markdown for just about any criteria imaginable for a plaintext document format

I'm pleased to inform you I don't feel the need to work on a drastic redesign of my personal homepage/blog this year. I'm generally pretty happy with it. https://jaredwhite.com
HOWEVER…
I have a TON of small tweaks and various content updates in mind to add to the site. I also need to get back to my project to make it easier to post from my phone. (Static sites with Markdown files is cool, but very fiddly on mobile!) Hoping to develop a better POSSE habit in 2024. #indieweb

I wish it were possible to create more complex sites just with HTML and CSS — but any aspiring web author learning to create a site that way quickly finds some very common task that’s impossible in plain HTML and CSS.

I’ve decided to dedicate 95% of my #Threads personality to yammering on about #Mastodon / the #fediverse and why people should #joinmastodon (and abandon Threads). As an example, here is my most recent plea to the #infosec folks of Threads to create Mastodon accounts and invest their social time here instead of there. My selfish reasons aside, after spending time in both worlds, Mastodon is *much* stronger for this community than Threads is right now. Yes, I know a federated future means a bridge between worlds but I still hold the belief that certain qualities of Mastodon will always make it a more habitable place for infosec folks than a place like Threads (e.g. posts longer than 500 words, posting exploit code that could be moderated out by Threads, PRIVACY implications, etc…)
https://www.threads.net/@mk3s/post/C1mhs7JL2vo/
*Apologies to those who find any association with or time spent on Threads utterly irredeemable. My own feelings are mixed for sure.
My dream is to get more people to invest not just in Mastodon, but in owning their own land on the Internet, i.e. #indieweb principles. Building a brand or relying on big tech for our identities on the web has been proven to be an awful decision. Even relying on well-maintained Mastodon instances is not without some danger.
Leave Threads ➡️ Build a social graph on Mastodon ➡️ Buy a domain ➡️ Publish your *posts / content / w.e on your blog ➡️ Federate your blog (where possible) or simply expose an RSS feed ➡️ Establish a permanent identity on the web less reliant on others.

Redid the CSS for my personal site by basically throwing away everything and only adding back some global styles.
You might find it ugly, but it's mine. ❤️

Time to begin again: restarting my #100Days of #IndieWeb project for 2024, as a #100Posts of IndieWeb project, and congrats to the IndieWeb community on a fully completed 2023 IndieWeb Gift Calendar!
Last year I completed 48 out of a planned 100 posts in my #100DaysOfIndieWeb project, for nearly 48 days (some days had multiple posts). Instead of resetting my goals accordingly, say down to 50, I’m going for 100 again, however, this time for 100 posts rather than 100 days, having learned that some days I find the time for multiple posts, and other days none at all.
Looking back to the start of last year’s 100 Days project, it’s been one year since I encouraged everyone to own their own notes¹. Since then many have started, restarted, or expanded their personal sites to do so. Some have switched from a #Twitter account to a #Mastodon (or other #fediverse) account as a stopgap for short-form status posts. A step in the right direction, yet also an opportunity to take the leap this year to fully own their identity and posts on the web.
In 2023 Twitter also broke all existing API clients (including my website). I did not feel it was worth my time to re-apply for an API key and rebuild/retest any necessary code for my semi-automatic #POSSE publishing, not knowing when they might break things again (since there was no rational reason for them to have broken things in the first place).
I manually POSSEd a few posts after that, yet from the lack of interactions, either Twitter’s feed algorithm² isn’t showing my posts, or people have largely left or stopped using Twitter.
Either way, when your friends stop seeing your posts on a silo, there’s no need to spend any time POSSEing to it.
On the positive side, the IndieWeb community really came together in 2023, shining brightly even through the darker days of December.
We, the IndieWeb community (and some beyond!) provided a gift (or often multiple) to the rest of community for every single day of December 2023³, the first time we successfully filled out the whole month since the 2018 IndieWeb Challenge⁴, and only the second time ever in the seven years of the IndieWeb Challenge-turned-Gift-Calendar.
By going through the various gifts (more than 2 per day on average!), there are many interesting numbers and patterns we could surface. That deserves its own post however, as does a summary of the 48 posts⁵ of my 2023 100 Days of IndieWeb attempt, so I’ll end this post here.
Happy New Year to all, with an especially well deserved congratulations to the IndieWeb community and everyone who contributed to the 2023 Gift Calendar. Well done!
Let’s see what else we can create & share on our personal sites in 2024 and continue setting a higher bar for the independent web by showing instead of telling. #ShowDontTell

"text": "Time to begin again: restarting my #100Days of #IndieWeb project for 2024, as a #100Posts of IndieWeb project, and congrats to the IndieWeb community on a fully completed 2023 IndieWeb Gift Calendar!\n\nLast year I completed 48 out of a planned 100 posts in my #100DaysOfIndieWeb project, for nearly 48 days (some days had multiple posts). Instead of resetting my goals accordingly, say down to 50, I\u2019m going for 100 again, however, this time for 100 posts rather than 100 days, having learned that some days I find the time for multiple posts, and other days none at all.\n\nLooking back to the start of last year\u2019s 100 Days project, it\u2019s been one year since I encouraged everyone to own their own notes\u00b9. Since then many have started, restarted, or expanded their personal sites to do so. Some have switched from a #Twitter account to a #Mastodon (or other #fediverse) account as a stopgap for short-form status posts. A step in the right direction, yet also an opportunity to take the leap this year to fully own their identity and posts on the web.\n\nIn 2023 Twitter also broke all existing API clients (including my website). I did not feel it was worth my time to re-apply for an API key and rebuild/retest any necessary code for my semi-automatic #POSSE publishing, not knowing when they might break things again (since there was no rational reason for them to have broken things in the first place).\n\nI manually POSSEd a few posts after that, yet from the lack of interactions, either Twitter\u2019s feed algorithm\u00b2 isn\u2019t showing my posts, or people have largely left or stopped using Twitter. \n\nEither way, when your friends stop seeing your posts on a silo, there\u2019s no need to spend any time POSSEing to it.\n\nOn the positive side, the IndieWeb community really came together in 2023, shining brightly even through the darker days of December.\n\nWe, the IndieWeb community (and some beyond!) provided a gift (or often multiple) to the rest of community for every single day of December 2023\u00b3, the first time we successfully filled out the whole month since the 2018 IndieWeb Challenge\u2074, and only the second time ever in the seven years of the IndieWeb Challenge-turned-Gift-Calendar.\n\nBy going through the various gifts (more than 2 per day on average!), there are many interesting numbers and patterns we could surface.

Time to begin again: restarting my #100Days of #IndieWeb project for 2024, as a #100Posts of IndieWeb project, and congrats to the IndieWeb community on a fully completed 2023 IndieWeb Gift Calendar!
Last year I completed 48 out of a planned 100 posts in my #100DaysOfIndieWeb project, for nearly 48 days (some days had multiple posts). Instead of resetting my goals accordingly, say down to 50, I’m going for 100 again, however, this time for 100 posts rather than 100 days, having learned that some days I find the time for multiple posts, and other days none at all.
Looking back to the start of last year’s 100 Days project, it’s been one year since I encouraged everyone to own their own notes¹. Since then many have started, restarted, or expanded their personal sites to do so. Some have switched from a #Twitter account to a #Mastodon (or other #fediverse) account as a stopgap for short-form status posts. A step in the right direction, yet also an opportunity to take the leap this year to fully own their identity and posts on the web.
In 2023 Twitter also broke all existing API clients (including my website). I did not feel it was worth my time to re-apply for an API key and rebuild/retest any necessary code for my semi-automatic #POSSE publishing, not knowing when they might break things again (since there was no rational reason for them to have broken things in the first place).
I manually POSSEd a few posts after that, yet from the lack of interactions, either Twitter’s feed algorithm² isn’t showing my posts, or people have largely left or stopped using Twitter.
Either way, when your friends stop seeing your posts on a silo, there’s no need to spend any time POSSEing to it.
On the positive side, the IndieWeb community really came together in 2023, shining brightly even through the darker days of December.
We, the IndieWeb community (and some beyond!) provided a gift (or often multiple) to the rest of community for every single day of December 2023³, the first time we successfully filled out the whole month since the 2018 IndieWeb Challenge⁴, and only the second time ever in the seven years of the IndieWeb Challenge-turned-Gift-Calendar.
By going through the various gifts (more than 2 per day on average!), there are many interesting numbers and patterns we could surface. That deserves its own post however, as does a summary of the 48 posts⁵ of my 2023 100 Days of IndieWeb attempt, so I’ll end this post here.
Happy New Year to all, with an especially well deserved congratulations to the IndieWeb community and everyone who contributed to the 2023 Gift Calendar. Well done!
Let’s see what else we can create & share on our personal sites in 2024 and continue setting a higher bar for the independent web by showing instead of telling. #ShowDontTell

The draft of the book is in Ulysses, each of the 70+ chapters as sheets, and the web site is hosted on Micro.blog with a couple theme tweaks for the contents sidebar. I wrote a little Ruby script that will push all my changes from Markdown files back up to Micro.blog, via Micropub’s “update” JSON.

I'm planning to participate in Indie Web Carnival (https://indieweb.org/indieweb-carnival) this year.
In short, each month a different person chooses a topic and people write blog posts about that topic and send them to the month's host who then collects all the participating posts in a roundup post.
This month is hosted by @accordionpolar and the theme is positive internalization.
