Joining the gang at Homebrew Website Club Europe/London
Spending the evening hanging out with the welcoming and curious folks at #IndieWeb Homebrew Website Club Europe/London https://events.indieweb.org/2024/05/homebrew-website-club-europe-london-HJs8USwnq2Ie. Lots of demos of recent website updates and projects. I got some useful clarification on the difference between cross-posting and syndication. We went down the webmention and micropub rabbit hole. I’ve come awa https://benjamin.parry.is/collecting/thoughts/2024/05/homebrew-website-club-europe-london/

Hey! I’m reviving my long-dormant #podcast, “The Shellsharks Podcast”. Exciting right?! In addition to the usual topics, i.e. "Infosec, Technology & Life", I'd like to spotlight awesome people from the #infosec community here on the #fediverse and discuss #indieweb and #personalweb topics. If that sounds cool or interesting, check out show page on my site where you can learn more.

Organisation was haphazard and last minute meaning attendance was low, but it was a good opportunity to meet and catch-up with other members of the community.</p><p>The first day of an IndieWebCamp is used for discussion and for the final session of the day <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/2024/D%C3%BCsseldorf/Principles\">I proposed a discussion around principles</a>. The IndieWeb has <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/principles\">11 principles</a>, but having faced scrutiny and <a href=\"https://darthmall.net/weblog/2024/indieweb-is-for-devs/\">criticism</a>, I wondered if now was the time to review their relevance and composition.</p><p>I was curious how they originated and whether they still match the aspirations and goals of the community as it stands in 2024. When people ask what is the IndieWeb, and who is it for, do its principles hinder more than they help?</p><h2>First principles</h2><p>The first principle states:</p><blockquote><p><strong>Own your data.</strong> Your content, your metadata, your identity.</p></blockquote><p>There are few issues with this. Firstly, the language (data, metadata, identity) speaks a narrow audience. Furthermore, while owning your identity is mentioned, it could be considered a separate principle, not least because having your own domain name makes owning your data online possible.</p><p>The second principle states:</p><blockquote><p><strong>Use and publish visible data.</strong> For humans first, machines second.</p></blockquote><p>Again, this addresses a narrow audience, appealing more to spec authors than people who want to publish online. Principles 3 to 10 continue in a similar vein.</p><p>It\u2019s only when you get to the final principle that you\u2019ll find something a little more creatively-minded:</p><blockquote><p><strong>Above all, have fun.</strong> When the web took off in the 90\u2019s people began designing personal sites with tools such as GeoCities. These spaces had Java applets, garish green background and seventeen animated GIFs. It may have been ugly and badly coded but it was fun. Keep the web weird and interesting.</p></blockquote><p>If the IndieWeb was only about designing a set of standards, then maybe the principles as they currently stand would be fine. Yet there\u2019s a mismatch given the aspiration for the IndieWeb to be a place for all.</p><p>At IndieWebCamp Brighton, when somebody mentioned that they still didn\u2019t know what the IndieWeb is, <a href=\"https://adactio.com/journal/20968\">Jeremy responded</a>:</p><blockquote><p>It\u2019s having your own website.</p></blockquote><p>There\u2019s a beautiful simplicity in this message, but it can get lost in discussions about adjacent yet totally optional technologies and protocols that are more focused on social networking and the underlying plumbing.</p><p>This isn\u2019t an unknown issue. Since 2018, the organisers of IndieWebCamp have <a href=\"https://indieweb.org/2018/Organizers#IndieWeb_principles_split_and_reorg\">recognised a need to make the principles more accessible and applicable</a> to a broader audience.</p><p>Yet at the same time, principles should be opinionated, which means some people will disagree with them. Principles should stand for something (a good rule for a design principle is that, when reversed, it can be applied to a another organisation with different priorities).</p><h2>Core principles</h2><p>I spent the second day at IndieWebCamp looking through the current principles and researching how they came about. Tantek gave me some background about why and how they evolved. I attempted a unilateral rewrite, which is the absolute worst way to design a set of principles, but I wanted to get my head around them and explore some ideas first.</p><p>Thinking through the problem a little more over the last few days, I\u2019m forming the opinion that, by moving the more developer-focused principles into a separate list, the core principles could be reduced to 3 that encapsulate the core and more widely applicable themes of identity, agency and creativity:</p><ol><li><p><strong>\ud83e\udd78 Own your identity</strong><br />An independent web presence starts with an online identity you own and control. The most reliable way to do this today is by having your own domain name.</p></li><li><p><strong>\ud83d\ude0c Own your content</strong><br />You should retain control of the things you make, and not be subject to third-parties preventing access to it, deleting it or disappearing entirely. The best way to do this is by publishing content on your own website.</p></li><li><p><strong>\ud83e\udd73 Have fun!</strong><br />When the web took off in the 90\u2019s people began designing personal sites with garish backgrounds and animated GIFs.

Looking for an incremental journey to the #indieweb, embracing #smallweb & delaying the domain name purchase barrier:
1: Enter email address on found.as → get login link
2: Pick an existing or new handle like pcarrier
3: Import a linktr.ee by name OR enter a few named links, some with rel="me" OR edit plain HTML OR redirect to your own domain
4: Enjoy simple HTML being served as https://found.as/$handle
5: Having redirected to your own domain, move off found.as
Thoughts?

Really enjoyed this post by @shellsharks on #PersonalSites being for YOU rather than for OTHERS.

The previous host for the indieblog.page mastodon bot unexpectedly shut down last week. With the host completely gone, there is no way to transfer followers to the new host.
This means, unfortunately everyone has to subscribe again manually.
If you followed before, I'd be happy if you'd follow the new account again. New followers are of course also welcome 🤗
♻️ Please retoot to spread the word.

@shellsharks EXCELLENT EXCELLENT POINTS. I’ve had my own feelings about this - even lamented at times that I didn’t always feel as if I was part of the #indieweb bc my site is built in Wordpress and not handcoded. Of course, I got over that real fast.
There have been some FANTASTIC people in the groups I’ve chatted with who are more than willing to share knowledge and help me grow. But I know there are gatekeepers, which pisses me off to no end.

As the #indieweb continues to grow in popularity and mindshare, more and more folks new to the scene have shown apprehension, shyness, disillusionment and alienation with respect to being "part of the community". This seems to stem from a fundamental misunderstanding of what the IndieWeb is. It's not some fancy protocol or construct on a website, it's just you being you on a site you own. The following note is a response to one such lamentation
