Someone Told Me Once

#Wisdom #IndieWeb

https://mihobu.lol/words-of-wisdom

Yesterday https://last.fm/ (@lastfm) emailed their year in review reports, which they called #Playback24 and Last.Year.

Kudos to them for waiting until the new year to do so, and breaking with the pattern of services prematurely posting year in review summaries.¹

They’re also available on the web, without requiring a native mobile app to view.

Mine is here: https://www.last.fm/user/tantekc/listening-report/year

You can find yours (if you’re a last.fm user) by going here:
* https://www.last.fm/user/_/listening-report/year

The page title calls it your #YearInMusic, and the URL your #ListeningReport.

It has many interesting elements, from various top listened lists (artist, album, track), to what percent of 2024 listens (which they call scrobbles) were new artists, albums, and tracks.

Their “Top Tags” time chart is quite cool. Fascinating to see the differences in music listening over the seasons and the whole year.

The report has many interactive features, so it will take me some time to figure out how to save, export, and/or republish my listening report on my personal #indieweb site.

For now I used Firefox to save the page as an .html page to my laptop, and was quite impressed with how much of the information was available in that one file. Much more than #Spotify’s #Wrapped.

That’s step 1. Step 2 is figuring out a good way to blog at least some of it.

Today’s shout out is… me

I figure it can’t hurt to promote myself just this once. I’m the geek that runs isBrill and a whole lot of other stuff. I really do like making websites.

2024 in numbers

Alright folks. Struggling to find recent and good documentation on how to setup Mastodon with Docker.

Any recommendations?

Current status: in _theory_ it's running, I see the Docker images running and I even got a welcome email to my admin user, but attempts to pull up the web interface from the server throw a 403, and attempts to pull it up from my reverse proxy throw a 502.

Finally seeing this covered in the news.

"This should be illegal and everyone should be upset about this. If that alert was for my child and tons of people couldn’t see it because they don’t have a stupid X account, I would be beyond infuriated."

#news #SocialMedia #OpenWeb #indieweb #X #twitter

Still, the sting and pangs of longing are inevitable in both ways: that it was always going to come to this, and that it now has and will only be as it is

And so, in that spirit, I finally arrive at my point: does anyone know any good alternatives to #wordpress_com ?

Youpi, encore un gros pavé à venir sur le blog, que peut être 5 personnes liront 🤪😅

#indieWeb #blog

Is there a tool/website that I give it a link, and it gives back social media posts by author that contain that link? Or at least gives links to author profile on various social media sites?
I mostly read through RSS. Sometimes I read and think "wow, I would like to share/boost original author post on social media, too!" And I wonder if there is something that would make that last part easier.

I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week unless I fall behind this schedule. 😉 So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPH Vol. 33: "shen.land" https://shen.land/

#SmallWeb #indieweb #smolweb #PersonalSites #homepage #blog

Been working on a little #IndieWeb project; importing some of my online life into my own domain.
Currently I have Swarm checkins creating notes on my site. Got music and films coming in from RSS feeds, saving these locally feels like overkill but the end product is my Activity Feed.

Year End Retrospective 2024

#Weeknotes #IndieWeb

https://mihobu.lol/weeknotes-week-52-2024

My first implementation of showing webmentions is up! Think I'm gonna tweak it a little it the next days. Tell me what you think!

#indieweb #webmentions

There's so many indieweb protocols to discover and learn, and so many more that can still be invented I think. Let's try harder.

#indieweb

The #indieweb is more than #independence. It’s also a web, of both personal sites and “third place” sites like aggregators, bridges, proxies, directories, indexes, and other community sites.

Broadly speaking, such “third place” sites include places we collectively contribute to, and which license our contributions for free use by others. While open source projects come to mind, perhaps a more obvious example is Wikipedia.

Similarly, the most obvious “third place” in the #IndieWeb community is our community site and wiki https://indieweb.org/ as well as the heterogeneous chat https://chat.indieweb.org/.

We also have many services run by individuals (or small teams) in the community, for the benefit of the community, like:
* @snarfed.org’s https://brid.gy/ and https://fed.brid.gy/
* @aaronparecki.com’s https://webmention.io/ and many others
* @martymcgui.re’s https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/ (IndieWeb Webring)
* @gregorlove.com’s https://indiebookclub.biz/
* @mat.tl’s https://libre.fm/
and I’m sure many more I’m forgetting.

All these services respect your data and your ownership of it. #ownYourData

All these services are swappable. Many (most?) are open source and self-hostable in case you want to run your own personal instance or another shared instance.

The web part of the indieweb complements, connects, and strengthens the indie part.
