In the #indieweb chat there’s a helpful bot named Loqi that answers questions from the wiki and lets us add countdowns. Sometimes the bot seems like magic and there’s jokes about it gaining sentience. To that end, I apparently added a countdown in 2018 for 6 years out: “Loqi can drive.” It was something I set and forgot, so it gave me a laugh to get the countdown notification today.

You can also “give” Loqi things and it will respond with random things, so this funny exchange happened afterward:

gRegor gives Loqi a car
Loqi laughs at the car
gRegor gives Loqi a cybertruck
Loqi gives back the cybertruck

See, smart bot.

Hi all! Time for another regular (ish) Bridgy Fed status update, with big news: we’re bridging web sites to Bluesky!

We’ve supported this on the fediverse for a while, and we’re now doing it for Bluesky too. You can use Bridgy Fed to automatically generate a Bluesky presence for your web site, and you can follow any site that has microformats2 or an RSS or Atom feed. Bridgy Fed extracts profile info, converts blog posts to Bluesky posts, etc.

As examples, check out Nature and Electrek. To get started, enter a web site here.

Beyond that, lots more happened over the last few weeks: Continue reading

I'm looking at moving my Nextcloud and Matrix servers to my home network.

Folks with servers on your home network: any suggestions of guides you found helpful, or machines or storage solutions you recommend (or advise against)?

I have started a little #sideproject or #hobby. It is an #blog and #website focusing on #rss #rssfeeds and #rssfeedreaders

I am working on content and posting often. Eventually, I will spotlight different blogs, feeds, and feed readers.

Feel free to check it out:

I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week unless I fall behind this schedule. 😉 So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPH Vol. 17: SinusPL https://sinuspl.net/

Long post

Agreed! Honestly there are some real folks in the #IndieWeb that care very deeply about accessibility and I throw money at them whenever I find them or sing their praises loudly when finances are low @JonathanMosen @overcastfm

Anyone on the #indieweb / #smolweb that has written a comprehensive comparison on bitwarden vs 1password

Just a friendly reminder: if you want organisations and people to stay on the Fediverse it can't hurt to remind them that everything is discoverable through the users. We are so used to algorithms doing that for us, it's easy to forget that adding something like a hashtag will help someone find your post.

Posted my 4th #JulyReply2024 post :) I enjoy just waking up to RSS posts which I can react to. I might keep this up even after July, not as often but at least once a month.

So I kinda wanna make a #indieweb search engine of my own. Even though some others like #Wiby already exist.

@dpom
That sounds good

For now, the web seems to go that way

More people are migrating from X to Mastodon, more blogs self-hosted, all the #indieweb wave
