Inspired by all the #indieweb blogs I've been reading lately, I decided to spin up a Grav instance and an accompanying code server instance for remote file access and markdown editing.

I'm excited to start posting about some of the tech I use, things I'm into, and things I'm working on, among other random thoughts and ideas. I'll start posting about some things there rather than here going forward.

# Hier bloggt der Chef noch selbst

Vor ein paar Tagen schrieb Tantek Çelik (@tantek.com) auf deinem Blog:

No large language models (LLM) were used in the production of this post.

Inspired by a subtle but clear sign-of-the-times one-line disclaimer at the end of RFC9518’s Acknowledgments (https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9518.html#appendix-A-4)

Ich weiß nicht ob „inspiriert“ hier der richtige Begriff ist… ich weiß was er meint und verstehe seinen Punkt, finde es aber auch sehr beängstigend. Ist es wirklich schon soweit, dass man explizit erwähnen muss, dass ein Mensch einen Text geschrieben hat?

Es fühlt sich ein wenig so an, als würden wir hier gerade wieder den gleichen bzw. einen ähnlichen Fehler begehen, den wir schon zweitausendirgendwas mit dem Social Web begangen haben.

„No large language models (LLM) were used in the production of this post.“ scheint das neue „IndieWeb“ oder „Fediverse“ zu werden. Man fängt an, das was eigentlich die Norm sein sollte, zur Ausnahme zu machen und neue Begriffe/Beschreibungen dafür zu finden.

Es gibt gereade verschiedene Diskussionen zu dem Thema „Social Web“ vs the „Fediverse“ und auch @Gargron (der Gründer von Mastodon) spricht im dotSocial Podcast mit @mike (der Gründer von Flipboard) vom Social Web!

Ich werde also weder das „Not By AI“ Badge, noch den Text „No large language models (LLM) were used in the production of this post.“ irgendwo auf meinen Blog packen, in der Hoffnung, dass die Nutzung von AI/LLM irgendwann kennzeichnungspflichtig wird!

Ich schreibe hier um meine Gedanken (mit euch) zu teilen, nicht für irgendeine Suchmaschine, das heißt wenn ich irgendwann nichts mehr zu scheiben habe, dann wird es hier eben einfach ruhig PUNKT

…und weil es so gut passt: Happy Birthday Ma.tt! And happy blogging forever!

@scottandrew have a look at micro.blog and omg.lol for more #indieweb friendly on boarding
@scottandrew xoxo.zone/@scottandrew

I genuinely enjoy articles like this and the discussion that follows. UX/onboarding is a huge barrier of #indieweb uptake. Substack has this figured out.

@jeremy And I think this is an important issue holding back the #IndieWeb - it's like a skunkworks for great web ideas. But, because it's sooo decentralized, there are many different Proof-of-Concept implementations orbiting an empty space where professional products should be.

I think the next stage is for individual developers to stop tinkering on their own sites and bring IndieWeb products out to the market for regular people to use.

It's a race, and I'm coding as fast as I can.

✍️ New on the blog: some musings on the weird traps you can fall into with "drafts" folders, specifically on the web. I'm particularly pleased with the title here (being an ex-Geologist and all 😅)

(also yes, that is back-to-back posts. 2024 energy or something)

A bunch of #IndieWeb blogs are participating in this #AppDefaults trend. I thought it would be interesting to see what people on the fediverse are using. So tell me, what are your default apps on your devices?

“Websites offer an adaptable canvas for self-expression and sharing, … beyond the conventional structure of a blog. Sure, they could be smashed into blog format, but they would lose appeal and charm.”

yes! i totally agree with @flamed here—folks can get caught up in the idea of #blogs being the way to get more ppl into the #indieweb but diversifying the #web (to me) means having more *webpages* that celebrate your hobbies, interests, etc.

Well, since my personal website is live and published (https://philipptemmel.com) I thought I should update this thread again, since I haven't done it in a while 😅 This will also become my personal and public update thread now in which I share what I am working on regarding my website. 👍

Therefore, I also updated the initial post to reflect the change. 🙌

I run a small web directory for tabletop RPG generator websites. I've also been neglecting it a bit. This year I plan on tending it much more frequently.

Does anyone know of other hand-curated web directories out there?

@devnull I was under the assumption that e.g. #wordpress or @textpattern entering this space would result in lots of federated single-author / single-actor sites.

So the receiving backend doesn't have many targets to parcel delivery but rather just one.

How do you expect this situation to turn out?

Bridgy Fed now supports all web sites! You can now use it from the fediverse to see and follow any site, regardless of whether it has microformats2, webmentions, or WebFinger. Bridgy Fed extracts as much profile info as it can, generates fediverse posts from Atom and RSS feeds, and so on.

Web sites start out bridged to the fediverse as [domain]@web.brid.gy. For example, to see new nature.com articles in your fediverse feed, follow @nature.com@web.brid.gy. And as always, if you have a web site, you can upgrade Bridgy Fed to use its domain in its fediverse handle, like mine at @snarfed.org@snarfed.org.

(I’ve loved seeing other similar bridges recently too, including @twilliability@genart.social‘s RSS Parrot and @dave@podcastindex.social‘s pi-activitypub-server. We’re all pulling in the same direction!)

This is one more step toward making Bridgy Fed support people wherever they are, on any network, fully bidirectionally. Stay tuned for more!
