Been trying to convert IndieBlocks’ “Location” meta box to a “proper” block editor sidebar panel.
Slowly getting there.

IndieWeb Carnival: Accessibility in the Small Web

Finally updated my homepage at https://rscottjones.com.
Boy, do I need to rework the whole site!
But I am really looking forward to getting it all in order and getting back to #blogging on the #smallweb #indieweb instead of posting everything on social media.

Here’s my weekly update on Scribbles.
This week I talk about losing my favourite hen Chewy, migrating from microblog to KirbyCMS and Mastodon, and about Darren England and Chelsea v Burnley.
Tomorrow's the official start of #30DayFOSSChallenge! We've got a few people chatting in the #matrix already: https://matrix.to/#/#30DayFOSSChallenge:mozilla.org
Feel free to join us. Don't know what I'm talking about? Look here: https://nullarch.com/30DayFOSSChallenge.html
I just updated my website.
I added some links to the ever growing links page. Among others I am linking to the websites of @lostletters@cutie.city, @deathkitten, and @tansy@wandering.shop. I hope that is ok!
I also finished copying all of my Discovery thoughts from here to there, except for the Short Treks. They are coming some other time.

April's #IndieWeb Carnival is hosted by Aaron on the topic of "Good enough".
I love the topic! So many ideas popping into my head about how to approach this.

Why a lot of my content is now gated
I'm gating a lot of my content on my website these days. The reasons are numerous, which I detail in this post, but namely - I want #AI companies, #Google & other corporations to "work for it" if they want my content to boost their profits, and also: I want to keep some stuff more private.

Readers of my regular blog are probably wondering why a lot of my posts are now gated. Meaning, you need to subscribe to the website (ie give me your email) so that you can access them. I totally understand why some people may think “screw this” and scroll away, but I have many reasons to do what I’m doing.
Gated content are for those who are truly invested in my content
I still share ungated content. You don’t have to subscribe to my blog to read what I write. But the ones behind a “gate” or a subscribe box is for those who want to keep updated with what I write. I create exclusive content for them.
I don’t want to keep newsletter content on just Substack
I am currently mirroring my newsletter content on both Substack and my website. I believe in owning my content, but I also believe in tapping on the platform’s networking abilities. Yes, as I’m not a programming whiz, it’s not automated. I have to copy and paste this. I often publish on the blog first before Substack.
I want to stick it to Google
These days, I don’t really care about Google. I have more or less have given up on the Google SEO train and am relying solely on the power of networking and recommendations, which feels more fulfilling and wroth it. If I do get SEO juice, great. If I don’t, I no longer car. I just do not want to dance to the algorithm anymore.
AI, baby.
Since Google slyly said that it would scrape all content on the web to train its AI apps, I decided to give it the middle finger and put most of my valuable content behind a gate and my archive and most personal writings behind a paywall (coming soon to this website once I get off my butt to set it up). Sure, the protection may be illusory, but if Google or other nefarious corporations want to take it, they’re gonna have to work for it.
I want a sense of privacy
I’ve grown increasingly protective about my personal life and thoughts. I’m especially conscious of those “checking me out” for reasons that I’m not comfortable with. So, having my private and more personal thoughts behind a paywall or subscription form helps to ensure that those who bothered to hand me their email and money are not simply trolls.
Not guaranteed, of course. But again, if they want this content, they’re gonna have to pay or give me their emails to get it.

.@capjamesg I've been thinking about blogging about coffee (and getting a bit distracted thinking about representing coffee with #microformats/ #gohugo content types). But my actual decision tree is probably less complex than yours.
