After a few weeks of work, I *think* my website is at v1.0 status! I threw in a few flourishes, like occasionally displaying the site title in Aurebesh and a theme changer with certain icons. Play around, and please tell me what you think!

Threads has entered the fediverse

Threads is enabling more of their fediverse support today. To be clear, you can follow Threads accounts from Mastodon or Micro.blog, but you can’t follow those external platforms from within Threads. According to Meta’s blog post, getting outside content into Threads is an “in the future” thing.

And before the libertarian tech bros jump into the comments and say "just delete instagram," let me say that it's not always that easy.

Advocates and activists relying on voices willing to speak up. Instagram, Threads and Facebook which has billions of people on its platforms. And now, those activists will be suppressed in the name of wealth and corporate interests.

And there are people pretending to be liberals and leftists who are cheering this on.

Yeay, akhirnya kesampaian juga. Sekarang (seharusnya) situs saya (https://kekavigi.xyz) akan menampilkan pemberitahuan kalau pengunjung tidak memasang/mengaktifkan adblocker mereka. Terima kasih kepada Stefan Bohacek (https://stefanbohacek.com/project/detect-missing-adblocker-wordpress-plugin/) untuk ide seru ini.

#IndieWeb

I have made a simple tool for "integrating" #GeminiProtocol capsule gemlogs (blogs) into the #Fediverse using #WriteFreely. It is called gemfreely, and written in #Rust. It primarily does one way sync from Gemini -> WriteFreely. The next major step is to implement a comments sync system, which is a bit difficult since WriteFreely does not store incoming replies from #ActivityPub.

crates.io: https://crates.io/crates/gemfreely
Main Repo: https://git.agnos.is/projectmoon/gemfreely
GitHub: https://github.com/ProjectMoon/gemfreely

The primary way of handling comments will probably be to take a second account with a
#Mastodon compatible API behind it, and listen for replies mentioning the second "CC" user (Which I think is the recommended workaround from WriteFreely).

gemfreely is already in use for gemini://agnos.is. The blog is directly available at https://blog.agnos.is, and the Fediverse user is @projectmoon@blog.agnos.is.

People in the #indieweb webring who break it by not including the links are my actual pet peeves. Like you exhibit no restraint and you take and you take and you keep winning anyway

New page on my site for bookmarklets inspired by a post from @adactio . I've got a few there that I've used off-and-on over the years, and in general I find them to be a really neat concept that doesn't get much attention.

Jatan Mehta blogs about the noisiness of most social networks, and how Micro.blog takes a different approach:

Micro.blog is the only Fediverse-compatible platform I know of which truly does away with likes, boosts, follower counts, and hashtags. I wish all social networks removed these pointless stats by default.

Some people like the extra activity of boosts and notifications, and that’s fine too. I do think it can help with discoverability. But not every network needs to work the same way. If every network was a clone of Twitter, the social web would be much less interesting.

Threads opt-in vs. fediverse migration

Not all platforms are based in the USA. But, in part, this is why #ActivityPub, #fediverse, #IndieWeb, and #selfhosting.

But the oddest thing about the concept of a TikTok ban is: many states including the USA try to facilitate working around blocking/banning parts of the internet as censorship. Such support would certainly be used by #usians to circumvent the USA's censorship of TikTok.

Personally, I look forward an ActivityPub-based platform alternative, just to see.
