Jeff Veen: I still feel like literally anybody with an idea can start hacking on the web or making apps or things like that. That’s all still there. I think the nucleus of what we started back then still exists on the web, and it still makes me really, really happy. https://www.wired.com/story/we-were-wrong-oral-history-hotwired/ #indieweb

📝:ivory_boost: Use cURL and jq to Send Webmentions from Hacker News

Hacker News doesn’t send Webmentions when a post is created like Lobste.rs will, and there’s not currently a service on sites like Brid.gy that will provide them for you. Even the Hacker News API doesn’t provide search or filtering by site. Luckily, there is a service provided by Algolia that ...

Hey bloggers and #WebDev if you want readers, if you want to make it easy to share your new thing, seriously stop hiding your RSS feeds. If I can't find your RSS feed, I just won't bother with following you or reading future work from you. If I absolutely need a blog in my life I will hunt it down but you get 5 minutes. If you hidden it so well I can't find it, your publication will never be read or shared again by me unless it crosses my path again and the chances of that happening are far slimmer than you think. Make it easy to follow you. Make it easy to keep up with posts without giving you my email. At least 99% of the stuff I share comes from RSS feeds. If you want more readers, wave your RSS feed like a banner! #RSS #Blog #Blogging #IndieWeb

It seems popular to mention ones Blue Sky account on social media locales that are not Blue Sky so here's my Blue Sky account: https://bsky.app/profile/artlung.com. -- The planet is chaos and I'm glad to also have my personal website with its blog and contact form chugging along fine since ~1999 and will outlast any silo that I happen to live longer than. So far https://artlung.com/ has defeated Friendster, Yahoo!Groups, MySpace, Google+, Del.icio.us, Orkut, etc etc etc etc etc etc

LONG LIVE #INDIEWEB

Organising content by theme

At one point in life, I realised that I could either spend 8 hours a day working as a software developer writing code - or I could spend that same time inspiring and helping other people from different walks of life to get excited about technology and learn development.

That's been my guiding principle for almost a decade now.

I wrote about it for this month's #IndieWeb Carnival, hosted by @xandra

@smsm1 @cryptadamist @cybeardjm That way you pay for your hosting and your consumption separately, so if Bluesky the client goes nuts that only disrupts the consumption part, not the publication part, and you can swap to a new consumption stack that’s run by someone else

Whereas in Mastodon – if you change your consumption stack you also need to swap your publication server

#IndieWeb is like Bluesky and handles publication and consumption separately

@smsm1 @cryptadamist @cybeardjm Whereas Mastodon is:

- One instance that’s data store, lookup service, aggregator and client all in one and which third party clients talk to through a non-standardized API

So Bluesky is more like the #IndieWeb in that you can easily self host your own “web site” / profile without having to also self-host the aggregators etc needed for consumption.

Hey @evan check out https://libre.fm when you get a sec.

All the top users on the homepage are on the social web :)

Just added recent tracks across the site and top-users (by scrobbles) to the homepage. Some improvement to the query would be nice to show top active users, but for now this is nice.
