#indieweb #laravel

My website and my blog is very dear to me and I want to make sure that I can keep it up, running and updated even if any particular service goes down.

I did a self-sustenance checkup to my website, workflow and external dependencies to see how I'm doing and it gave me a lot of peace of mind.

I use some third party services (like Notion as headless CMS) but everything is built in a way that if there's no slowing me down if something fails.

The Smallweb Subway map is live!
It currently consists of 5 lines, each a #webring with one of the following themes:

Blue - #zines
Green - Artists from the Doodle Crew Discord server
Yellow - Members of a DC-based art club
Orange - #comics and #webcomics
Red - #poetry (maybe #microfiction too)

If you post any of these on your website & would like to be included, let me know! You can see the interactive map here:

Do you know of any good alternatives to #Obsidian Publish for people using 11ty (or any #SSG to be fair).

Since I started following #indieweb hashtag has appeared posts or recommendations from interesting blogs.

I would like to suggest to enthusiasts to put hashtags #indieweb and also #smallweb in the dissemination toots of their blogs / websites.

I believe this is a very organic form to find content that pleases us.

Don't you know what indieweb is? Check it out:

- https://indieweb.org/ (in English)

- And Antonio's Blog https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=pt&tl=en&hl=pt-BR&u=https://antonioaugusto.net/&client=webapp

PS: Aiming at a more "universal" and "wide" communication, I even thought of making a second blog, with the same posts in English (Portuguese it's my native language).

That's when I remembered that Google Translator works very well at the current stage.

It is possible to put the site URL and generate another one that already carries it translated. It's big tech, but it's for a good cause (if you know of Open Source alternatives, let me know)

Desde que comecei a seguir a hashtag #IndieWeb tem aparecido posts ou recomendações de blogs interessantes. Todavia, quase sempre de língua inglesa (o que não é problema algum).

Gostaria de sugerir aos entusiastas deste formato a colocar hashtags #IndieWeb e também #SmallWeb nos toots de divulgação de seus blogs / sites.

Acredito que essa seja uma forma bem orgânica e precisa de "esbarrar" em conteúdo que nos agrada.

Não sabe o que é IndieWeb? Eu também não, hahaha. Mas você pode compreender melhor nestes sites:

- https://indieweb.org/ (em inglês)
- https://antonioaugusto.net/ (em português)

PS: visando uma comunicação mais "universal" e abrangente, até pensei em fazer um segundo blog, com os mesmos posts em inglês.

Foi aí que me lembrei que o Google Translator funciona muito bem no estágio atual. Nele, é possível colocar a url do site e gerar outra que já o carrega traduzido. É big tech, mas é por uma boa causa (se souberem de alternativas open source, me avisem)

A new review on Brain Rots!

「Let’s get this right of the bat: Dead Man’s Letters is a masterpiece; one of the greatest movies I’ve ever witnessed.」

When a company withholds a feature from the EU because of the DMA — Apple for AI, Meta today for the fediverse — they should document which sections of the DMA would potentially be violated. Let users fact-check whether there’s a real problem.

Threads has rolled out seeing replies from other platforms, filling one of the biggest holes in their fediverse support. Nice to see the progress. There is still quite a bit to do (replies to those replies, moving accounts) but it feels much closer to complete.

As I write the new scenes for season 3 of Fern River Club, I am also brainstorming about how to connect more like-minded readers with the project.

I just know there are loads of sensitive and curious readers out there who would love these subtly sexy, aesthetically rigorous, unconventional stories!

How can I connect with them? I am open to any and all ideas, fine people of the fediverse!

New tags on Fern River Club!

I have expanded the tags on scenes to include more than just erotic themes. Interested in scenes featuring #bicycles ? Or perhaps #architecture and #decor ? #CityLife ? We have you covered!

My account is a year old so time for a fresh #intro post!

I'm a baby millennial, a retired digital SWer, domestic abuse survivor, and recovered addict. Through the process of slowly reclaiming my life, I have rediscovered what made the internet so beautiful in the #decentralized & #indieWeb movements. A current #peerSupport student facilitating DA groups and church mouse/custodian at my local #postEvangelical parish.

Areas of interest: #FOSS, #Linux, #poetry, #veganism, #PKM, & #allyship.

I published the code for my feed reader.

Love what Ozzyman is doing here. Ditching the algorithm and emancipating his content to live on his own domain.
Not only claiming independence from publications but also from Youtube by serving its own video tag. Love it! #indieweb https://jj.isgeek.net/2024/06/25-004714/
