Discovered this cool post --> https://lu.is/2024/01/after-twitter/ <-- from @luis_in_brief while exploring @molly0xfff 's drop-your-blog thread (https://hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff/111908294962007998). It has some great tips for those still orienting themselves with the Fediverse. Check it out!

Slowly working on a couple of posts for the Shrediverse blog that I'm excited to share with everyone.

Coming soon to https://blog.shrediverse.net.

@accordionpolar Absolutely agree, having a good and welcoming group of people always helps. And the people in the #indieweb IRC channels seem very pleasant. It takes a lot of that "n00b" fear away.

I felt the same way about Discord, too, until I found the right group. Now I run a small private server and I take care to be very welcoming and friendly to new people, especially if they're new to Discord.

Off topic - I could watch your avatar spin all day, it's very soothing. :D

Into the Great Wide Open

Out and about in indie-blogging this week, the always interesting (check the keyboard posts!) bsag is experimenting with webmentions, and has a method of caching mentions locally that takes me way back to my own first implementation. Indieweb rules!

Here's a rough overview about toots to a certain day's or month's challenge or prompt:

( @strangeseawolf, I hope, you don't mind being taken as an example 😉 )

Left: With "base instance" setting filled (using https://mastodon.online/share directly)
Right: Without "base instance" setting filled (using https://sharetomastodon.github.io/ to choose the instance outside the tool)

This would be a few settings, you could configure. It would be all stored locally in your browser and would never leave your computer

So I joined the #indieweb IRC channel and GOD why does it take so damn long for me to get used to using #IRC whenever I use it? I can never remember commands even though I was using this stuff for YEARS back in the day. And I always feel like such a newbie when I get on IRC.

I don't know why I am so intimidated about it, it just seems like some side of the internet that I was not supposed to be on (which is just my imposter syndrome talking, I know).

@robb

Me: greatly appreciating this thoughtful discourse on #IndieWeb privacy considerations

Also Me: relieved to maybe have a reason* to remove at least one technical roadblock to ever making my #PersonalWebsite

*other than my complete & utter ineptitude 🙃

@jefklak

I made a new thing. It's like a now page on steroids. #IndieWeb

Another #IndieWeb brain fart:

Your blogroll is a list of Vouch candidates for your #Webmention-sending code.

https://indieweb.org/Vouch

A related #IndieWeb and #Webmention riff:

Add #IndieAuth to your website and allow others to sign in. They’d be able to view a dashboard of the content they’d posted that made its way onto your website. Maybe add some lightweight self-service moderation controls?

Dipping my toe into The #IndieWeb Discourse…

Nothing dictates that receiving a Webmention means you’re bound to display its source content on your website.

You could…

• forward the Webmention to your email,
• build a private notifications dashboard (with or without a moderation queue),
• add a link to the source page to your website without including its content,
• do something wild like set up an auto responder to the original author thanking them for the like/boost/reply,
• etc. etc. etc.
