How and why I added #Webmention and #POSSE to my weblog. https://www.rarous.net/weblog/2024/02/18/webmention-syndikace.html #indieweb
Feel like this is the perfect time to bring back web buttons, what do you think of this one? https://ash.ms/2024/02/18/human-made-web-button/
Recent thing on my website, How to sync Lire with Miniflux https://robertkingett.com/posts/6493/ #IndieWeb #SmallWeb
It has occurred to me that I've had this profile for a good minute now, and haven't done an introduction yet. Soo...hi! I'm Piper.
I'm a professional illustrator and underground cartoonist (who you may know under a slightly different former name), as well as a musician, (former) chef, and resident jazz DJ over on https://datafruits.fm.
You can find my illustration work portfolio over at https://sarahallenreed.com (until I move the domain name over to my current moniker; I'll update this once I've found the time to do so). I also keep a little #Indieweb -esque blog over at https://truckstop.coffee, if you want to read it.
I tend to use Mastodon more for unfiltered thoughts, goofin' about and makin' friends than for promotion, but you'll occasionally see me postin' stuff I'm working on, things I'm putting out into the world, and that sort of thing.
Mostly, though, it'll be things I'm hacking on, food I've cooked, cigars and pipe tobaccos I've enjoyed, records I'm listening to, glamour shots of my beloved typewriter and word processor collection, and cute pics of my even-more-beloved doggo, Polyhymnia.
With that stated, here's a few photos of things I think represent what I'm on about fairly well, as well as a photo of me and my beloved fuzzy idiot. Feel free to say hi down below. I look forward to interacting with all of you!

I'm on Changelog and Friends!
🕺 It’s a new Changelog & Friends!
@www.jvt.me (who has a website) joins @jerod & @adam to discuss the indie web, living with ADHD, sharing his salary history with the world & building DMD – a dynamite open source tool to help you better understand the use of dependencies across your org.

A few things:
* We should stop being surprised by digital algorithms solving digital challenges faster than humans.
* Captchas were being solved by computers back in 2013. Eleven years is a long time for us to then get a tool like ChatGPT that could not solve it.
* Captchas were never easy to solve for humans (and by design impossible for many)
* One reason Captchas kept being pushed was because we were all being used as free labor by Google for training AI, since 2014. Before training AI, we were transcribing books.
* It's estimated that 500 human years are wasted every single day — just for us to 'prove our humanity'.
* Tech progress isn't as fast as everyone is led to believe. It's either heavily misrepresented, or sometimes we're just late at becoming aware.
* An AI trained on George Carlin's material wrote new material. Not. Because actually humans wrote it.
* I've also added a video of Musk promising full self-driving "next year", every year since 2014.
I write a lot about digital ethics and human rights in tech. If you're curious I'd love to see you as a subscriber.
There's a traditional newsletter or you can opt for the RSS feed(!). You actually don't have to disclose personal data to subscribe to my content, which I believe was always what I loved about the early blogosphere.
Also, it's free and open to anyone:

Creating Your Own Website
Building a website can seem difficult, but half the battle is just getting started! We wanted to put this guide together as an easy compilation of tutorials and places to learn exactly what you need to get started.
This is a really useful guide for beginners!
We hope this guide helps make everything feel more accessible to you, because it is! The internet belongs to all of us, so be sure to stake your claim in it.
More on why you should have a website
A website, or anything interactive, is inherently unfinished. It’s imperfect—maybe sometimes it even has a few bugs. But that’s the beauty of it. Websites are living, temporal spaces. What happens to websites after death, anyway? What are you waiting for? …

Making Websites Should Be Easy

@tantek.com A good read, thank you!
One change I’ve been making myself over the past few years in this vein is to switch, as much as possible, to serving statically built sites using JS only as progressive enhancement, and serving them over #IPFS.
IPFS means anyone else can play a part in storing and serving my sites for as long or as little as they want, and I can (and do!) offer to “pin” other #IndieWeb sites on my #homelab 😊 https://byjp.fyi/indieweb-ipfs
Maybe this helps a little!
* Updated MediaWiki install, updated themes, better mobile device support
* New default theme: Vector (2022), the same as English Wikipedia
* Lots of CSS fixes for content, sidebars, etc.
* Home page content simplification and more pleasing design update
Lots more details on the 2024 homepage and design update project page:
* https://indieweb.org/2024/homepage
This was a community effort, with many people pitching in with major & minor contributions, spending weeks, days, hours, or a few minutes here and there helping out. From server work, to PHP coding, to HTML+CSS (re)coding, to testing variants of MediaWiki themes, browsers, and devices.
Huge thanks in particular to @PaulRobertLloyd.com (@paulrobertlloyd@mastodon.social) for both driving this design update (e.g. said project page) and doing the heavy lifting of debugging, patching, and testing the latest MediaWiki Vector theme, documenting before & after screenshots, and @AaronParecki.com (@aaronpk@aaronparecki.com @aaronpk) for all the server-side software updates, PHP/IndieAuth wrangling, and critical devops too.

2023 Blogging Project Recap
In 2023, I attempted to write 100 posts of at least 100 words, inspired by some other blogging projects I saw promoted as part of the IndieWeb revival.
Unsurprisingly, I fell a little short. It’s unsurprising because there were some summer months where I really stepped away from this blog and only got maybe one entry in per month. Then there were weeks […]

an #introduction for the alt account
feel free to call me fami, justin, onemuri; whatever you see fit
i use it/its pronouns (masc pronouns outside of english) and i am a lot of queer mixed with disability
this is my alt account in case my main goes down for any reasons (i'm one of the wavebird.party admins!) -- hence why the intro is also mostly copied, because i suck at intros but feel free to ask me stuff
i am one of the 3 owners of a wii and one of 10 owners of a 3ds on fedi. hit me up if you want some mario kart or smash bros tho :yeah:
i also do art and try to rewrite my website as i no longer like the way it looks. AI/techbros/fossbros DNI i hate you with every fiber of my being.
if youre looking to follow a fellow disabled transmasc-revolving fella who games and draws, or youre into similar things, feel free to follow (unless you are under 18 or post content illegal in my jurisdiction)
fun fact: i love bananas and mangos
also plushie collectors pls interact i also collect plushies, here are my plushies (and other toys) below
#gaming #VideoGames #wii #3ds #disabled #ActuallyAutistic #IndieWeb #pokemon #plushie #art #DigitalArt #ArtistsOnMastodon #furry #webmaster #queer #transmasc #transgender #salmacian #LGBTQ #BoostMe
I made a thing in php. https://social.marisabel.nl still a lot to add like automatic links, callbacks, and images. But once it is all I want, I can try to make it federated. It's fun, but HARD. At least it has rss. #indieweb
