@flaki@flaki.social no cross-posting at all, that post, and this reply are federated directly from my personal domain. If you look at the top of my post in your Mastodon client / reader you can see that it’s from @tantek.com — no need for a username when you use your own domain.

Regarding “why the expanded link preview is to one of the (first) hashtags and not to one of the links in the post”, that’s likely a #Mastodon link preview bug with how it treats hashtags.

If you view your reply in your Mastodon (client), you can see that the first hashtag in my post #webDevelopers is correctly (re)linked to your Mastodon’s tagspace: https://flaki.social/tags/webDevelopers, so Mastodon is at least getting that part right, recognizing it as a hashtag, and linking it correctly for your view.

However, Mastodon is still for some reason using the default link for that hashtag on my site (where I am using https://indieweb.social as the tagspace¹) as the link for the link preview.

Since you use Mastodon, perhaps you could file an issue on Mastodon to fix that bug? Something like:

If Mastodon recognizes a hashtag and converts it to link to a local tagspace, it MUST NOT use that hashtag’s prior/default hyperlink as the link for the link preview shown on a post.

Thanks!

Made a breakthrough in how I think I can make this digital garden work. It always comes down to finding the right tool for the job, and I may have an idea of what might work for me.

For displaying webmentions on a static site, I went with using webmention.io as my webmention endpoint and fetching responses in the browser using https://github.com/PlaidWeb/webmention.js


To send webmentions, I have an automatic process in my Netlify build to check my feed and send mentions, but you could also use https://webmention.app/ to do the same.

Followed the steps on https://indiewebify.me/ to integrate #webmentions on my #blog and made some real good progress after plenty of commits.

No clue though how to actually show them using @astro but that's Tomorrow Steve's problem not mine

I definitely want to add more pages, and once I add dropdowns within the menus, that'll be easier to organize. My main thing is that I don't know how to strike a balance of "personal" and "portfolio" in the content I put on my site.

Does anyone else have experience/thoughts on this? (2/2)

I'm at an odd place with my personal website. Before Dec. 2023, it was a "professional portfolio" for my compositions. Now that I'm interested in the IndieWeb community, I want to make something more personal. I don't *think* I want to make two sites, but I do still need a portfolio for my composition work.

I just read @maggie's post on "digital gardens" and I really like that idea. (1/n)

@huwfulcher Lots of services to integrate with - several static generators have libraries one can use to capture and interact with web-mentions. See https://indieweb.org/Webmention - I don't recognize your flavor of SSG but it looks to be in Rust? Peruse https://indieweb.org/Rust and if you see missing pieces feel free to login and update that page. #IndieWeb

The first update from Ghost about ActivityPub has a screenshot of their early experiment. There’s also a lot about timing:

In 2024, for the first time, it finally feels like we have a critical mass of people and platforms who are interested in rewilding the internet to bring back what we lost, and create something new.

Not sure about “for the first time”, but that’s a minor nitpick, mostly selfish on my part. I’m glad Ghost is doing this and look forward to following their email series.

Help me out here #indieweb I currently have a statically generated site. How much of a headache is it going to be to integrate more IndieWeb features like reactions, mentions, etc? Am I better off going server side or using calls to endpoints on page load?

Comin' into day 10 of #weblogpomo2024 (~1/3 of the way through!) with some songs of the past 🎶

Setting up a web server on your home computer is a rite of passage that everyone does once, realizes what a pain in the ass it is, and then never does again.

Back home from a great week in Bluestone. Excited to do more work on my “personal internet” this weekend. Looking at #indieweb #selfhosted #fediverse stuff

Sometimes sparking creativity requires doing something else for a while. It's hard to force it.
