Did a total redesign of my site recently, including a new banner, retro web icons, background patterns, and more. Late 1990s web inspired.
Have a look: https://pixelglade.net😊
For a long description of the banner see: https://pixelglade.net/artwork/webgraphics.html#pixelglade-banner-longdesc

I have a question for the IndieWeb community: What can we do against Webmention spam, except filter it out, when it fails validation? I receive hundreds of invalid Webmentions a day, and even using a filtering DNS server doesn’t seem to help much. But I also don’t want to waste network traffic to access all those spam sites. Is there any good block list I can check first before doing the request for validation? I thought about Akismet, but the API has no such option to only check the submitted URL.

Exciting news! We are introducing the Federation Advocacy and Advancement Initiative (#FAAI).
FAAI aims to promote federation in apps, improve existing features and standards, foster collaboration, and provide informational resources.
We've proposed federation for Apache Answer and plan the same for AnswerOverflow!

The problem with redesigning your personal website is that it looks great for about a week, and then you start to hate it.
I've been struggling to organize the variety of side projects I've made.
Does this make sense?

Well, I am pretty excited about the upcoming IndieConnector release. This is a huge one. Will need some more time to test everything, but I guess there will be a release soon:

Thinking forward about the "democratic web" forum (or should it be for general free web? #fediverse, #indieweb and #smallweb and #p2pweb included), we went on to set up Discourse today.
We need to write a plunging for signing up using ZK proofs.
While my mate Ahmad went on to set it up on our server, I tried to install it locally. And failed. and failed. and failed!
.. 8 hours later turns out that a simple rename of a folder would solve my strange problem. #Ruby can be annoying.

On and off for a few hours here and there over the last year, I’ve been working on a way to post updates and photos to my site (which is federated). I’m using Hugo (static site generator) as my CMS but the process was never super fast - especially for things like status updates (that you’re looking at now).
I had the crazy idea a while back that I could use a bat file to help in the process, ultimely to:
- Quickly make a page in hugo with the right categories and tags .
- Build the site.
- Deploy it.
- Send a webmention.
This morning after a complete overhaul of the BAT file, this is my first automated post. If this doesn’t work, then I’m going to walk away until next weekend and bang my head some more then. If this makes it out there, then I’m going to work on a post on how I pulled this all off. (Its long overdue)

New post and old Roblox thing!
I published the script for that old Roblox video tutorial I plan to make, so even though there's no video and it's still a pretty solid resource. Not much info on this stuff online, so hopefully I can change that one drop at a time?
I also published it for motivation reasons - releasing bits at a time encourages me to keep going. Because I know if I start working on an actual video I will get lazy and stop.. oh well.
Enjoy!

@oligneisti@linux.pizza @jsit That last paragraph really resonates! From a solo creator's POV, even with bulk scheduling tools that can post across platforms, it's a headache to manage and detracts from content creation. I'm also pro- "own your content on your site", à la #indieweb #POSSE (Publish on your own site, syndicate elsewhere).
That said, an #RSS reader lacks the ability of, say, #activitypub to comment and interact directly with video content, creators, and other users. (1/4)
