Manuel:

At the same time, there’s another type of garden on the web, not a walled one, but a digital one. Personal websites come in many shapes and sizes and the digital garden is one of them.

It’s interesting how we’re using the same metaphor—the garden—to describe two completely different things. One is the embodiment of the capitalist mindset applied to the digital ecosystem driven by greed. The other is the digital manifestation of personal expression. Digital gardens are—or at least should be—a welcoming place.

But they should not be a destination. The point of a garden is to walk through it, to enjoy what it has to offer, and to then keep moving while carrying its beauty with you. Ideally, you should come out of that walk enriched, and not enraged.

Recent thing on my website, Introducing the BOOK https://robertkingett.com/posts/6514/ #IndieWeb #SmallWeb

This month's #IndieWeb Carnival is on the topic of accessibility in the personal web.

I wrote about my thoughts on a few bits that I've thought about and worked on in my website.

I’m rebuilding my website in a live environment because it’s more fun breaking things when the repercussions are so high. Anyway, I slapped an ⚠️ Under Construction ⚠️ banner up there today. Feels good. #IndieWeb #WebDev

The internet, addiction, and me

Sometimes it's not okay to look down from the world.

🔊 I have something new in the works - EchoFeed https://echofeed.app/

🤔 What is it? A hosted version of Echo (https://echo.rknight.me/). No more fiddling with JSON configs and all that boring stuff.

👉 I've setup a newsletter so you can sign up to know when it's ready and maybe subscribers will get beta access 👀: https://buttondown.email/echofeed or you can follow me here because I'll definitely be posting about it

Made a new #personalwebsite. One that's not connected to my other life. Just a place to post thoughts and ideas that are hopefully helpful or at least amusing to someone sometime.

Well it's that time of life again...in which I revamp perpetualrandomness.com for the 3rd or 4th time? I haven't kept the all the archives of this site (mainly because I'm lazy), so getting a fresh start is pretty easy. Excited to tinker with #hugo and have a spot to post my random thoughts without wordpress overhead or bothering with literally ANY javascript. thank you, #indieWeb for returning us to our roots! #staticWebpages #lightWeight

Updated the auto-linking code¹ on my website last Sunday to handle a few more @-mention use-cases.

In particular:
* @-domains with dashes/hyphens like @sonja-weckenmann.de
* @-@ with (some) Unicode alphabetic characters like @briansuda@loðfíll.is
* @-domain-and-path for indicating @-mentions of silo profiles that don’t support @-@ syntax, like @flickr.com/people/tantek or @instagram.com/tantek

I also dropped auto-linking of URLs with user:password "userinfo", since they’ve been long abandoned and effectively deprecated because there’s fairly wide agreement that such basic HTTP authentication² was poorly designed and should not be used (and thus should not be linked).

If you’re curious you can take a look at https://tantek.com/cassis.js, which has updated functions:
* auto_link_re() — regular expression to recognize URLs, @-mentions, @-@, and footnotes to link
* auto_link() — specifically the code to recognize different kinds of @-@ and @-mentions and link them properly to profiles, domains, and paths.

This code is only live on my website (testing in production³ as it were) for now, and you’re welcome to copy/paste to experiment with it. I plan to test it more over the coming weeks (or so) and when I feel it is sufficiently well tested, will update it on GitHub as well.

With this additional auto-linking functionality, I feel I have a fairly complete implementation of how to auto-link various URLs and @-mentions, and plan to write that up at least as a minimal “list of use-cases and how they should work” auto-linking specification.

This (blog post) is my contribution to today’s #IndieWebCamp Brighton #hackday!

This was originally a project I wanted to complete during IndieWebCamp Nuremberg last October, however I was pre-occupied at the time with fixing other things.

In this week’s issue of The Curious Engineer, I am covering the #indieweb. Also spent the afternoon working on my website redesign. I am loving #eleventy!

New blog post! I talk about adding an RSS feed, why I like RSS, and some of my favorite experimental music blogs I follow.

Tell me your favorite #indieweb sites and blogs! Go! 🙌🏻

I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week until I don't. So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPH Vol. 8: j3s.sh https://j3s.sh/

Completely overwhelmed by day 1 of IndieWebCamp Brighton. Amazing turnout, of mostly first-time attendees, engaged in diverse discussions that examined subjects like how to memorialise a personal website after death and sharing pain points of hosting, writing and syndicating content online. Clearly there’s an appetite for the indie web, and for making it more accessible, too.

26 people gathered outside a building smiling for a group photo in the sun.

The feed is built on top of the reading list software I've been running for a few years, and it ingests posts from Citation Needed.

I can also write posts in the microblog and automatically crosspost them to Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky, while keeping the original post on my site. Like this (https://www.mollywhite.net/micro/entry/202403091817)!
