Well I'll admit that I stayed up a little bit later than I intended but I managed to hammer it out. Some thoughts on the #indieweb #smolweb #personalsites movement (whatever you want to call it) and, incidentally, the first update to my personal website in 6 months.
I don't know if the world needed another one of these think-pieces but for me, at least, it's a sort of statement of intent. At the very least I hope to put some more effort into my personal site.
My homegrown static site generator (https://git.ussenterprise.xyz/huw/gohuw) and my personal website (https://huwfulcher.com) are slowly taking over my life.
Having loads of fun creating my "homestead on the internet" to share my thoughts & what I'm interested in.
I'm thinking of writing something about the #indieweb for my personal site and it feels appropriate that I'm making notes longhand. (Though I swear it's not for hipster cred. I'm just tired of staring at my monitor after 8 hours of work.)
I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week until I don't or unless I fall behind this schedule. đ So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPH Vol. 15: yyzkevin https://www.yyzkevin.com/

It would be much harder for a 15-year-old today to View Source and understand the code structure that built the website theyâre on. Every site is layered with analytics, code snippets, javascript plugins, CMS data, and more.
This is why the simplicity of HTML and CSS now feels like a radical act. To build a website with just these tools is a small protest against platform capitalism: a way to assert sustainability, independence, longevity.
Hm - how popular and/or useful are #webmention #webmentions and #indieweb ?
We recently came across them, and they would make for a great fit to our own website!
The H-Format is a little odd of a data format, but seem reasonable to parse, and rather trivial to add which is good, and we'd love to see what people can do with it - not to mention seeing comments on our pages without needing to worry about account management etc.
It seems very... Comfortable

I (almost missed and) really enjoyed the first-ever #11tyConf last week.
https://cssence.com/2024/11tyconf/
It had it all: From â_you_ can to thatâ to âyou can do _that_â˝â
I built a prototype for client-side, fully distributed search for the #IndieWeb, predictably called #IndieSearch â check out the short demo & explainer. Your site may even support it already (if you use the awesome #Pagefind static site search!)
I'd love to hear what you think!

An #IndieWeb community member is doing a survey to better understand sentiments on social media and how personal websites and IndieWeb-like philosophies can help people who are dissatisfied with social media.
The survey is being done as part of an academic assignment.
If it interests you, Iâd encourage you to help by filling out the survey!

Perhaps we need to do better.
Weâve decided to make our mini services available as individual subscriptions instead of only as part of a plan. So you can now get the form spam bot blocking service on its own for $3/month!
