People say content is being locked up in proprietary silos but look all I had to do to get an RSS feed of articles on a certain site was install a mitm proxy to intercept their mobile app's requests, fake an SSL certificate to inspect them, reverse engineer their internal APIs, then write a script to discretely query aforementioned APIs and generate an RSS feed file on a schedule. Simple! 🙄 #indieweb #rss

#coding this #neocities site makes me remember why I stopped advancing with coding...

Now I also regret not advancing with it 🙄😂

Any #indieweb folks have a recommendation for a good #Micropub client? Quill is the best I've tried so far but doesn't support image alt-text without a media endpoint, and seems to be in maintenance mode.

Current personal project: blog consolidation. I currently have three blogs (!!!) and I’m tired of putting my likes and hobbies into silos. You can either take all of me or none.

My plan is to have ONE personal blog, old school. Easy management, no fancy templates, very #indieweb focused. I’ve spent almost all weekend looking at 50 bazillion CMSes and SSGs and…I never thought I’d feel decision burnout for a dang website.

So, the ol’ standard of #Wordpress it is!

@flockofnazguls this is cool and/but it's also worth mentioning that, if your #band already has a #WordPress site, you can easily add a free audio player to your site and be your own #bandcamp / #faircamp / #soundcloud. No 3rd party platform necessary.

Now that I have a band with a site, I'm (slowly) disinvesting in #streaming platforms and making my own site central to our distribution strategy.

FWIW your #WordPress site can also be your #Mastodon server!

Unless I'm missing something, Google seems to have deactivated the "www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml" endpoint that is unofficially used to generate RSS feeds of YouTube channel video content. Now returns 404. Going to break a lot of feed reader and website/widget content pulling if so. #rss #indieweb #youtube #google

its that time to scream into the ether to introduce myself
i am syrup, trans gorl who plays #videogames and likes to write
i am a participant in the #indieweb though im not too active in maintaining my site
i like looking at the #weather and nature in general, and i am a CoCoRaHS member
if you like seeing #cringe posted infrequently, i can provide it and maybe more unique things as well

In 2019 I started my blog but knew nothing of the #IndieWeb or #SmallWeb. Thanks in large part to the awesome #Mastodon community I was introduced to these concepts and have been diving in ever since, adding IndieWeb capabilities to my site and exploring the Indie World in its entirety. To help introduce others to the IndieWeb as well as catalog useful/interesting things I encounter I decided to write a post about it.

That piece features a few cool lists like a list of webrings, blogrolls, IndieWeb search engines, indie site hosting providers and more!

To further help “score” my site on its “IndieWeb-ness”, I also wrote the following post about #IndieMark which includes my site’s score.

Ghost Atlas - "Dust of the Human Shape". A Short Review. — Shrediverse Music Blog

@zachleat Thinking about it from an #IndieWeb perspective, is this a use case for a linkblog and syndicating that post from your own website out to your various social accounts?

Trying the Old Reader, and while not as clean as Miniflux, to me, it was very accessible and syncing to Lire was a breeze, apart from a few unlabeled buttons. I hope it sticks around for a while even if I detest the social features in it. Now who can recommend some audiobook blogs to follow besides the Libro FM Blog, Audible blog, and Lovely Audiobooks since I already have those. #IndieWeb #SmallWeb #RSS

Anyone know of a fedi or at least free-ish alternative to SoundCloud? I like posting my stuff for archival and for whatever folks might enjoy listening to my brand of self indulgent improv, but I just have no desire to engage with that site anymore. What are the cool Indieweb kids using these days?
