What domain registrar should I move my domain to when I shutdown my Squarespace site? Hover.com?

And for hosting my new #11ty site I’m thinking about Netlify.com (free) or Neocities.org but still open to suggestions.

#eleventy #domainname #webhost #SmallWeb #IndieWeb
(Edited for clarification)

I hate that I can't follow #Gemini for the application-layer protocol because Google took over the name for its LLM so fast. I mean.. the zodiac sign, the constellation and the NASA project all had their fair share, didn't they? 😉

Dear SmallWeb fellows - we have to use #GeminiProtocol to keep it visible! 💙

Twenty years and two days ago, @KevinMarks.com (@KevinMarks@xoxo.zone @KevinMarks) and I introduced #microformats in a conference presentation.

I wrote a long retrospective last year: https://tantek.com/2023/047/t1/nineteen-years-microformats

Since that update nearly a year ago, here are the top three interesting developments in microformats:

1. Growing rel=me adoption for distributed verification:
 * Wikipedia: https://tantek.com/2023/139/t1/wikipedia-supports-indieweb-rel-me
 * Threads: https://tantek.com/2023/234/t1/threads-supports-indieweb-rel-me
 * omg.lol profile links by default: https://home.omg.lol/info/profile-items

2. A proposal to merge h-review into h-entry, since reviews are in practice always entries with a bit more information:
 * https://github.com/microformats/h-entry/issues/32
 
3. #metaformats adoptions, implementations, and iteration
 * There was growing practical interest in metaformats, so I updated the spec accordingly
 * A half dozen implementations shipped: https://indieweb.org/metaformats#IndieWeb_Examples
 * Active discussion for evolving metaformats to support more real world use-cases: https://github.com/microformats/metaformats/issues

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years of iterating and evolving microformats, to #microformats2, growing adoption as #IndieWeb building blocks, distributed verification (those green checkmarks) in #Mastodon and across the #fediverse, and implementing metaformats parsing to standardize parsing various meta tags for link previews into equivalent microformats2.

From last year’s activity, it’s clear there’s more use-cases, implementer interest, and community activity than ever.  Looking forward to seeing what we can build in 2024.

Anyway if your #fediverse instance has already blocked the brid.gy root domain I suggest bugging your #MastoAdmin / #FediAdmin to change that to only block atproto.brid.gy (and maybe bsky.brid.gy as well, though I'm getting conflicting info on which subdomain is going to be used) and nostr.brid.gy.

web.brid.gy which actually works right now is perfectly fine, and you're just doing a disservice to your users who would want to interact with the #indieweb. ​:seija_coffee:​

For the past month, I've been tinkering with my blog like it is 2005 again… And I love it!

If you are replying to a remote post and that instance supports BOTH ActivityPub AND Webmention…

Which protocol should be used/prioritized?

#activitypub #indieweb

ActivityPub
Webmention

Almost there

OK I’m 90% satisfied with the look and feel of the site now. Archives and single notes and links are exactly what I want. Posts archive and single posts don’t feel quuuite right yet… It’s enough that I can stop spending all my free time messing around with it, thought. Right? Right?! …

Extending our Mastodon social media trial

Moving all my newsletters to #rss has been great so far, minus a few drawbacks here and there. Has anyone else run into any issues not outlined here?

New blog post on The Shrediverse blog!

The Rise of Sleep Token (Part 1)

https://blog.shrediverse.net/posts/the-rise-of-sleep-token-part-1

#SleepToken #metal #music #indieweb

Obviously, I'm approaching bridging from an #IndieWeb angle, and a belief that people should have the ability to move their data around the web without losing their networks in the process. I **like** the idea of interoperability, and that's one of the key benefits of the Fediverse in my mind. In the same way that #RSS enables people to access posts on these services, I'd like that to apply to the social interactions as well.

Perhaps there is a way to make that opt-in versus opt-out...

How Machines Took Over the Internet, and Why We Need to Take It Back!: AI makes things worse because now we have machines generating SEO-friendly articles to talk to machines. The cycle is complete—machines talking to machines. What we need is people talking to people, discussions, the web as the big enabler. We need more human curators instead of automated curators. Astute observation from Maho. Machines…

I will spend an hour or so catching up on articles I've saved or left open in tabs.

I'll be bookmarking the ones I find interesting to my website, you can follow along with the feed, https://flamedfury.com/bookmarks-feed.xml, it'll refresh sporadically!

@homegrown @mastodonmigration Brid.gy is a popular #indieweb syndicator. YOU SHOULD NOT DEFEDERATE IT, as the IndieWeb has stronger ethical values regarding bigtech than the fediverse. The main purpose of the website is to syndicate content from a website to both Mastodon and Bsky.

@janboddez I just came across this post, and wanted to chime in that I've been thinking about the exact same concept. Plug and play with full #indieweb compatibility. I think there's a market for it in the current climate!
