One of my favourite projects has resulted in being my website. Not because of the technical or design party. But ir has been something that has been done for myself.

It gives me something for the future. It celebrates myself. It gives me gratitude when I look back.

Putting it on another platform would probably have resulted in me trying to produce for others. But I am my biggest fan of my website and I wanna keep it like this.

#indieweb

@helge I meant with #IndieWeb, Bluesky and other non-ActivityPub initiatives

Eg the #IndieWeb have documented lots of findings in their wikis and have standards that been standardized in parallel with ActivityPub

One should not do like eg Mastodon did with the fediverse:creator meta tag

Just renewed my domain registration for webshed.org, It's 24 years old this November.

As we keep pushing for new #IndieWeb and #Fediverse movements, let's always remember how any open technology can be used against itself. E-mail, for example, had everything going for it until spam became a huge thing. History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes. Could LLMs be the new silent killer making all kinds of slop out of content gathered from anything with an open protocol?

Yesterday's Front End Study Hall was terrific. Thank you @Meyerweb for jumping into showcase neat design ideas for links using Firefox's excellent developer tools. Great participation from everyone. https://indieweb.org/events/2024-10-24-front-end-study-hall #IndieWeb #CSS #WebDev

This is a post from the #indieweb! (trying out posting from IndiePass and aperture)

I'd like to make my #wordpress site accessible by #gopher #gemini #spartan clients, any ideas? In the official plugin repository there isn't much stuff...

It’s odd how many developers in the fediverse don’t know how Bluesky works. I’ve made it my business to understand a little bit about all platforms, going back 30 years of building for the web. Product design is then finding the right way to put the pieces together.

I'm planning to use #Ghost to host my own MicroBlog. What advice would you give me? My current website runs on #Hugo, and it’s too customized for me to want to migrate the whole thing to another software.

I’ve noticed a few people recently refer to their top-level pages as “slash pages”.
Honestly my first reaction was “Aren’t those just ‘pages’?”, but I’ve come to find the term kinda fun.


But when people started adding a /slashes slash page, I thought “Isn’t that a sitemap?”.
XML sitemaps are common to aid in search engine indexing, but there are lots of documented examples of human readable sitemaps as well.
Apparently others think of them as “index pages”.


The fun thing about websites is that people can use whatever URLs they want.
You could even translate those pages into your primary language.
But I’m going to advocate my preference to stick with the traditional /sitemap path


So I went ahead and implemented my human readable /sitemap page.
I limited it to the top-level pages but added an indicator that there are sub-pages.
I also still have my /sitemap.xml file but that’s just for the bots.
