Another new blog post in my People series: Breaking Bread With a Pagan.
Recounting the one of the earliest times I can recall having my beliefs challenged.

What he said (about the indieweb)

The internet has always been made of people, but it has not always been people-first. The indieweb reminds us that humanity is the most important thing, and that nobody should own our ability to connect, form relationships, express ourselves, be creative, learn from each other, and embrace our differences and similarities. …

"The vital thing is not webmastery, but what the websites people make represent: the democratization of information, the empowerment of the individual and the ethos of digital citizenship."

"The web is so much more than a tool or a list of applications. It is so much more than a network. It’s us. And how we use it, access it, and what we say and do on it increasingly defines us."

Reflections on what the web was and what it may be yet:

The recent chatter about #microformats turning 20 reminded me I’d re-found this book by @johnallsopp when I was clearing out the loft a few years ago.

I kept putting microformats into my markup for years, even though I was convinced no one was using them any more. Then I discovered people had moved on to v2 in #indieweb circles and I had some catching up to do 😂

If you're able to see this post (on the Fediverse) yay! That means your admin hasn't blocked Bridgy Fed which I use to bridge my website with the Fediverse so I can chat to y'all.

This is likely due to recent discussion around the upcoming BlueSky bridge and opt-out being the default decision.

I don't dispute the freedom or choice to block Bridgy, and am definitely taking some time to think about how I feel about the varying thoughts, but the main thing is that it looks like several admins have blocked Bridgy altogether, resulting in not just the blocking of the upcoming BlueSky bridge (at a separate domain under brid.gy) but also classes Bridgy as Tier 0:

Tier 0 is a combined blocklist of only the worst actors, and it exists to provide one blocklist to which surely no one can object as a baseline for others. It's the perfect starting list for any new mastodon admin.

So it could be my time interacting with the Fediverse is going to be cut short, and I'll be screaming into the void very much moreso 😅

@luis_in_brief That’s their service to the community to remind you that WordPress (or any other blogging platform) is just for publishing blogs, but that authoring should be done locally, because that’s the place where your valuable content should stay. And when you get there, you recognize that static generators are actually a good idea. ;) #indieWeb

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 post nearly a year ago, here are the top three updates & interesting developments in microformats:

1. Growing rel=me adoption for distributed verification (✅ in Mastodon etc.)
 * 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.

If you’ve been following the Bridgy and Mastodon drama, consider that many Mastodon users don’t want a bridge that allows Bluesky to federate with Mastodon, but they do want Bluesky to support ActivityPub so Bluesky can… also federate with Mastodon. 😜

What, in your opinion, is the correct way to implement dark mode on a website?

#ux #uxdesign #ui #uidesign @ux #IndieWeb

Respect OS setting/Don’t provide a toggle
Toggle switch independent of OS
Three-way toggle: light/dark/auto to respect OS

After 18 YEARS (bruh) Nerd Listings, an #oldweb link directory, is shutting down.

http://nerdlistings.info/

It was run by Deanna. Since becoming a mother of 2, she's lost the time and motivation to keep the project going. Consider sending her some appreciation and love over on her site 💌:

Hey #IPFS! Is there a distributed search mechanism that stands out for indexing particularly HTML sites pinned on local IPFS instances? https://admarus.net looked interesting, but it seems to have gone quiet.

I want to offer free pinning for (static) #IndieWeb sites on my #homelab, and would love to offer “IPFS small-web" search too.

(If anyone knows of good guides for getting PersistentVolumes working on #Talos with #FluxCD, I'm all ears — that’s my next chore on this path!)

after watching doug block's Home Page (1999) documentary a half-dozen times over the past year, i realized how much i missed having a personal home page.

not an itch.io page. not a github repo. not an imgur album.

an actual personal home page full of links to interesting places and people, and a little blog area to write personal stuff in. i haven't had a personal blog since the early 2000s.

i wanted to have some fun, so I hauled my dusty ol' iMac G5 out of storage and installed Macromedia Dreamweaver and Fireworks. i hadn't used any of them in almost 20 years.

i thought it might take me a week to build a home page...

... it took me a year 😅

so this is my little attempt at rebuilding what we lost in the 90s. let me know if you've got a little homepage i can link back to in my hyperlinks area.

I posted a while back about the need for a Google-like search engine for the #IndieWeb. Something simple, clean, and privacy-focused. I think this is it.

I haven't been on mastodon lately but I see people talking about bridgy and consent issues, and I'm not sure the context.

Some folks (like me) copy the replies made on their own blog posts posted to mastodon to their own blogs as webmentions. Is that bad, should I not be doing that?
