www-man tim berners-lee identifies an „issue“ with today‘s web:

„…the extent of power concentration, which contradicts the decentralised spirit I originally envisioned. This has segmented the web, with a fight to keep users hooked on one platform to optimise profit through the passive observation of content.“

and publishes it on medium 😀 #web #indieweb

This weekend I added the ability to click links on my website using a penguin avatar.

Learn how it works (and try it out) on my blog:

I've just tried #Publii

It's a static site generator. Unlike many others, Publii is a graphical application, very easy to use. It manages content edition with 3 different methods:
- Wysiwyg editor
- Block editor (inspired by Medium IHMO)
- Markdown editor
Adding images is simple, you can select one as featured for Organic data, put one in the header for the site or for each post.
It runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Collaboration, compassion and creativity. I think the 3 C’s nearly describe the #IndieWeb. https://medium.com/@timberners_lee/marking-the-webs-35th-birthday-an-open-letter-ebb410cc7d42

A lot of great points by @louie on the merits of self-publishing.

“Every new thing that I add to my website works to regain my internet presence away from companies that do not have my interests at heart.”

Another great issue of “own your web”

I think I need to change my portfolio website into some kind of personal blog and start learning all of this

You have a voice and a choice to move away from a walled garden to create your own digital garden that's welcoming. If you have one, drop a link and I'd be happy to visit often.

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.
