Hamattion why they have a website rather than just a social media profile

Can any Wordpress folks give me some advice? I don't like my website reaching out to Gravatar to provide a profile picture; both for myself when I post and for anyone else using my website. Is it possible to stop this? And if so, is it possible for my site itself to provide the profile picture, so that it can still be available via Activitypub? Many thanks! #wordpress #indieweb #activitypub #selfhosting
I've made some updates to my links page, https://flamedfury.com/links with a new section menu and added a couple new web directories that I was missing
And the voting is now open!
are there any other services like stolen camera finder that search for photos that include the camera’s serial number in the exit data?
years ago my new canon g7x mark ii camera was stolen and i still hope to one day find it, though the possibility is so remote.
i want to enjoy photography again! i have a blog to post to now!

Back down the rabbit hole of HTTP signatures + ActivityPub today. Fixed an issue, and reviewed the new community group draft. Don’t feel great that my code mostly resembles the make friends and verify requests blog post from 6 years ago rather than newer docs.
The list of sites nominated for this year's https://tinyawards.net is now online, and the public voting will open tomorrow!
Thanks to @researchbuzz for the heads-up!

An Open Mentions idea: A small web tag
I have an IndieWeb META suggestion for OpenMentions.com. I was thinking that there should be a topic tag for small web aka smolweb. Should it go under IndieWeb or somewhere else?
OK, so I updated the repos at https://github.com/janboddez/indielol and https://github.com/janboddez/janboddeznet.
These are the “base” theme for this site and a couple others, and the child theme for this site specifically.
Mind you, these were created for, I think, WordPress 6.4, and before I’d even looked at block hooks. Don’t think they represent, you know, “best practices” or anything. I’m planning to still update them. One day.
Like, in my child theme, I define this “Post Meta” block that I actually use twice in most of my templates; I then output just the one occurrence for certain post types and the other occurrence for, well, all other post types.
The code I use to dynamically populate this Post Meta block’s innerBlocks is very similar to … what you’d do with block hooks.
Let’s see, what else? Oh, the child theme has this activitypub folder, which is where my Add-on for ActivityPub plugin goes looking for certain templates. (While the ActivityPub plugin has since added support for extra “actor profile” fields, I still like my implementation, haha! Plus, there’s all these other features, of course.)

Hi Fediverse, I’m Alec! As for an #introduction, I’m a technology professional who works in the public sector.
My interests constantly change, but I always come back to #linux and #BSD, my #homelab and #selfhosted things, #python, and recently, #golang.
I love small, simple things, and I’m especially interested in the relationship between tech and humans. I’m on a journey to understand how to make and use the internet better, and the #indieweb community seems like a good starting point!
@KentNavalesi @academicchatter Though I am pretty much but one more of those "tech-focused" indieweb blogs you speak of, I have made an effort in the past few years to start writing about non-tech things. As someone who has embraced the idea of the #indieweb, I feel my site/blog is a space to write about all things me, and not just my professional/other-techy pursuits. I file all of these under the tag "life" on my site, the list you can peruse here!

Today designed a very simple landing page for this app: https://www.thoughttonote.ai/
Took longer than I expected (designing was easy. Did with #claude ; hosting took time.) But glad at least a placeholder page is up and running
