Shameless plug: My newest newsletter issue is out!

You can read it on my website: https://dominikhofer.me/newsletter/006

And you should totally subscribe to it*, so you never miss another one: https://dominikhofer.me/newsletter

*I might be a bit biased. On the other hand, a whooping 4 subscribers can't lie ;)

I decided my newsletter will in fact be an exploration of the old web!

Im calling it "I Miss The Old Web" and we'll discuss all the treasures, histories, and lores that cyberspace of yesterday had to offer.

I still have a lot of stuff to do to get going. For now, check out the new website and let me know what you think: http://imisstheoldweb.com

@m2m @chris @grueproof What advice would you all give to individuals without deep IT skills who would like elegantly coded, resource-light, understandable websites for:
- booksite
- archiving text+image articles originally published as social media threads (ideally with comparable ease of use for image sizing & consistent layout)
- web version of talks, words+slides
- permanent personal sites for academics & independent scholars
Searching for 21 months, still stumped...
#IndieWeb ?

This is a product of this very-old-school LOTR fan site: https://www.lotrfanmb.com
(It’s got a banner!)

This site is mostly to host the fan forums but it also hosts an archive of fan works like the above. There are some other good “sung to the tune ofs” on there to check out

Gotta love the home grown, creator-owned fan works on display… this was before the “Web 2.0” social media companies centralized and devoured fandom interaction

Hoping the #indieWeb keeps on bringing that spirit back!

Back in June I wrote about an exciting confluence of digital auth tech:

(1) The commodification of #OIDC infrastructure, (2) the emergence of #FedCM, (3) and the compatibility of both with #indieauth .

In short, it is now easier than ever to log into web applications using your own website as an identity provider. Or at least, it would be, if your favorite web apps supported these agency-enhancing technologies.

Thanking my RSS readers

Found a cool message on Kev’s blog about appreciating RSS readers, so I decided to add something similar to mine. This WordPress snippet displays a random welcome messages to all RSS readers.

Taking a short break from Threads and Bluesky. Nothing against those services, but I started over-thinking the post length differences. I need to focus on work and blogging first. Because my blog natively uses ActivityPub, Mastodon folks will still see my posts.

static website with rss

WordPress is way too ambitious for a very simple website that lists cool blogs like blogroll.fr and I'd like to turn the current website into a static website, using ideally only HTML and CSS, or a tiny bit of something else if really needed.

The only thing that really worries me is that I would like to keep an RSS feed so that it's easy to follow when blogs are added (an

Hosting your own content is the core of the #indieweb, says @shellsharks

"f you are reading this, or you have a personal site, you are already part of it. Full stop. You don’t need to be shy. You have things to say and people WANT to listen, they want to read, they want to connect. You don’t have to be an “influencer” or have a big following. Your writing doesn’t need to be AMAZING. You don’t need to write to an audience. Write for yourself. Then share it. "

Fediverse is a bust on tiny instances

If even long-time production-tested complex systems frequently fail, why do some people still maintain the illusion that a newly developed complex system, with each component created by a different developer, will function flawlessly when its parts assemble in production for the first time within the expected deadline?

Thinking again on learning enough HTML to pass making a neocities site has been pretty rewarding so far, but I cannot stress enough that I have to be in "focus and problem solving" mode, which is sometimes not easy to be in, or stay in. (ADHD WOOOO)

https://www.w3schools.com/html
, and the neocities reddit have been great wells of knowledge for things that I know are simple, but still struggling with so far.

That being said. I fixed all the links from opening new tabs, THEN I set up a comment for myself in the future so I don't make the same mistake!

I'm liking this a lot so far, and even if I did have to rebuild my artist website, it suddenly doesn't feel so out of reach....

Bei Heise-Online (und in der c’t) kann man diesen schönen Artikel über Kirby und das IndieWeb lesen (heise+). Jo Bager beschreibt in der Reihe, wie man Kirby Schritt für Schritt ans IndieWeb anschließt. Im aktuellen Teil geht's um die Installation von Kirby und meinem Komments Plugin. Später soll es dann mit dem IndieConnector weitergehen.
Freut mich sehr!

I'm talking about Aliens! But why aren't they talking back?

Read my blog summarizing a really cool hypothesis to the Fermi Paradox that was shared on the ArXiv last month.
