What does it look like I\u2019m doing over here, anyway? Oh, no, it\u2019s not good enough to post one\u2019s opinion on the web.

I\u2019m doing it here, on my own website for all to see, in the best IndieWeb tradition. And you are talking to me if you quote me on your own website or email me.\n\nI don\u2019t consider my post a reply to Matthew\u2019s post. I do not see his post as an invitation to conversation. I read it as a \u201ctake\u201d - an opinion piece intended to make the reader feel a certain way and then close the topic, complete with clickbait headline.\nI shouldn\u2019t have to point out that bloggers-blogging-at-bloggers has a long history of unproductive conversation. Reducing the impact of unproductive conversations is part is why there\u2019s not an IndieWeb mailing list. It\u2019s easy in these formats to go hard on the abstract, and to spend time constructing arguments instead of asking questions.\nThat\u2019s not to say that posts can\u2019t inspire change. In the past day or so indieweb.org/discuss has been updated to mention right in the opening sentence that the IRC, web, Slack, and Discord chats are all bridged. Discussions have also kicked up (not for the first time) around making the homepage more welcoming, focusing on principles first, etc.\nThose changes are being decided in the real-time chat, where you can meet and talk with the individuals (all volunteers!) who make up the IndieWeb community.
