In a world where publishers are finding that owning their own digital presences and relationships with their audiences is imperative, the #indieweb is more important than ever before. https://werd.io/2024/the-indieweb-is-for-everyone

Last year, I revived a site I had built back in the late 90s as a tribute to Dynamite Magazine. Part of that nostalgia was adding a guestbook, and I even included the comments I received way back then. Even some of the original staff signed it!

99% of the comments now are just bots. It's a struggle to bring back old school web like this without serious moderation safeguards. Using Netlify Forms works pretty well.

I have written too many words on another reason search engines have stopped working: what they are looking for no longer exists.

For the #IndieWeb ideals of independence from intermediaries, not requiring corporate platforms or other organizational intermediaries¹, the best systems we have still depend on organizations. However they are all swappable, at will, by the individual:

1. domain names, depend on registrars, which you can switch
2. web hosts, depend on hosting providers, which you can switch
3. internet access, depends on internet service providers, which you can switch
4. web browsing, depends on browsers, which you can switch
5. personal devices, that have choice of web browser and internet access, which you can switch, upgrade, and use multiples of simultaneously

When you can migrate from one provider to another, one device to another, without disruption, without breaking your people-to-people connections, the providers and devices serve you, instead of gatekeeping you.

This freedom to swap, freedom to choose, depends on practical #interoperability across multiple implementations, multiple services. Open standards are the means to encouraging, testing, and verifying this user-feature interoperability across implementations and services.

The #IndieWeb is for everyone, everyone who wants to be part of the world-wide-web of interconnected people. The social internet of people, a network of networks of people, connected peer-to-peer in human-scale groups, communities of locality and affinity.

These peer-to-peer links should not require corporate platforms or other organizational intermediaries, nor should they require depending on developer intermediaries, nor server administrator intermediaries.

This is the "indie" in IndieWeb, independence from intermediaries, not independence from people. Because the "web" in IndieWeb, is yes the Web of the World Wide Web, and it is also the Web of people.

The "indie" in IndieWeb is also the independent agency to opt-into human-scale groups, opt-into peer-to-peer connections, opt-into communities, opt-into publics. As the POSSE page says: “Figure out how you want to fit into the network”.

The "web" in IndieWeb is also an open acknowledgment and acceptance that regardless of what groups, connections, communities, and publics you opt-into, that they are all interconnected in a larger web, that even without connecting, you can accept and respect from a distance.

The IndieWeb is for everyone, everyone who wants independence from organizations, independence of agency to associate, and who embraces the web of humans that want to interconnect, to communicate, to value and respect each other, whether one degree apart or thirty.¹

Bookmark Roundup – January

In which I dump a bunch of cool stuff I’ve found via my random browsing, the fediverse, or things people have sent to me.

Git stuff, Taxes, Radio Shows, Scrobbling, Cybersecurity Conferences, Books… and more

My /Now page now sports a “Supporting” section which simply lists the organizations, publications and people I am contributing to financially.

Recent thing on my website, We need less objective journalism https://robertkingett.com/posts/6437/ #IndieWeb #SmallWeb

More recently, I've implemented #lunrjs (https://lunrjs.com) which was pretty easy to get set up in my dev environment. It indexes pages by individual search terms so is not as strong at searching for phrases (multiple words) as super-search was, but for what I often need to search for, this is a compromise I’m willing to take in order to get full-text search of everything on the site.

I've wanted to revamp my site’s Search capability for a while now. Up until recently, I've used super-search.js which came bundled with the #Jekyll theme I chose years ago. It’s fast but only seems to index a small portion of each page so if I want to search full-text in longer-bodied posts I was out of luck (I tried tweaking it but was unsuccessful, which isn't to say it can't be done by a more competent / patient tinkerer). #indieweb #webdev #IndieWebChat #ssg

After many weeks of tinkering I'm finally launching my new (and very first) personal homepage + blog + future project showcase: https://tobiasm.dev

I used @eleventy to build it and had a fantastic time: intuitive to use, well documented and easily extended.

In case you're curious, I prepared a little write-up on the process: https://tobiasm.dev/projects/personal-website/

Check out this month's 7th #indieweb carnival submission 😄

It's not an easy topic... Kudos to those of you even *thinking* about attempting it.
