Link seals provide a quick soft-check utility for link health on your web spaces.
It's inspired by a blog post from Terence Eden about managing link rot on a website.
It proposes a very simple concept of a seal key, seal function and seal checker.

Capitalist social media is bad, but I will never be nostalgic for the "old web," since I actually remember what it was like. Websites were all slow and shitty, half of them would infect your computer with a virus, there were dead links and broken images everywhere. People were obsessed with posting slurs, swastikas and gore. I witnessed all kinds of sickening things when all I was doing was looking for video game cheat codes and Disney movie fan art.
It's good to promote personal websites, but let's not romanticize the past.

Question: Is WebSub (formerly PubSubHubBub) still relevant these days? And if so, to what extent?

New instance, new #introduction
My name is Mike (a.k.a. "shellsharks”) - I am a security researcher, #IndieWeb advocate, all-things #Fediverse convert and all around #tech enthusiast.
I write about #infosec, #technology and #life over at https://shellsharks.com
Here's some other stuff I like... #apple #sports #travel #battlestations #food #starwars #lotr #pokemon #gaming #space #fitness #nba #basketball #hiking #camping #music #coding #programming #cybersecurity
So what's going on with this instance? Is this my "main" presence or am I still on shellsharks.social? Fair question. The answer is, yes! This is a #GoToSocial instance, on a new fun, shiny, vanity domain. If it works out, I might end up moving all my activity over here and shutting down the Mastodon instance I have at shellsharks.social. Until then, I'm operating out of both spaces. This also means that for now, I haven't migrated my followers (or followed accounts) over here, so don't be offended if I haven't followed you back yet! I don't want to knock this fairly low-spec'ed instance over so I'm taking it slow with how I am using it.
Why am I doing this? Well for one main reason really, I wanted an instance where I could post more than 500 characters at a time. GtS gives me that, and much more. Bonus points for A. being less resource intensive than Mastodon (so cheaper to run), B. more customizable and C. I could get an even more ridiculous vanity domain.
So don't be surprised to see a lot more from this account than my usual @shellsharks account. If you'd like, you can follow me here for now. No worries either way.
See y'all around Fedi!

It's been a while since I've published something I consider a "blog post" on my site. But thanks to @ApisNecros tossing over the "Blog Questions Challenge", this now exists --> https://shellsharks.com/get-to-know-my-blog
Turns out, I've answer much of these questions in various places across the site at one point or another, but this post puts them all together in one place if you want to learn more about the site! May it inspire others to write their own "Get to Know My Blog" post or maybe to get started with a site/blog of their own! #indieweb #blogging

I'm really quite terrible at graphic design (I'm not even fit to sarcastically claim it's my passion), but I finally forced myself to make an 88x31 website button.
It's hard to fit any context into just 2728 pixels, so I'm forced to run on a vague non-sequitur of a domain name, and a drawing of a cute girl.
The URL (in text form) is https://bigraccoon.ca

Finally, a new blog post! Inspired by @kev 's "Blog Questions Challenge", I followed suit and wrote up my answers to these eight questions. I loved these kinds of things back in the MySpace days. I've also tagged @shellsharks and a couple other to hopefully continue the trend :)

Speaking of online communities, is your personal website part of a webring?
#indieweb #webring #PersonalWebsite #internet #TheWeb #community
Yes!
Yes, a few?
I run one or few myself!
Not really
No, but thinking about it!
I don't have a personal website
What's a "web ring"?
Something else?

We should be making more internet forums. Like with Discourse. Or more old school ones.
We need to invest in our communities and build new ones. That's how we get through the difficult times. Together.

There are many good use cases for AI-based solutions.
One use case I find deceivingly dangerous but often discussed is using it in your notes system to automate creation or extraction of notes.
For this month's IndieWeb Carnival, I wrote about why the friction created by writing and reading your notes - also known as thinking - is such an important part that shouldn't be automated.
Thanks @vhbelvadi for hosting this month!

We’re halfway through January and there have been some excellent submissions to the #IndieWeb carnival.
Have you written yet? Do you have a personal website/blog (or are you looking to start one this year)? Do you enjoy writing, and perhaps thinking about interesting things?
The theme this month is ‘on the importance of friction’ and has broad interpretations, so let your ideas run wild.
Here are all the details you’ll need: https://vhbelvadi.com/indieweb-carnival-friction

What a fantastic list made by @robb ! It includes suggestions for standard pages to include on one's personal website.

I finally managed to fix images' links in my personal website RSS feed, in #astro
It wasn't trivial at all! And I have to thank Billy and his post here:
https://billyle.dev/posts/adding-rss-feed-content-and-fixing-markdown-image-paths-in-astro
Still not super happy because I need to find a way to include multiple collections to this set up, which I can't make it work right now...
Also ditched many bad practices like using <br> in md files.
Still need to find a way to deal with <figcaption>.
But for now my #RSS feed looks fine!

Do I brag too much or not enough? It occurred to me that Micro.blog might be on the only platform of its kind that has built-in support for exporting content in several different file formats. And multiple APIs to get your data out? JSON, XML-RPC, Micropub. Our commitment to portability is absolute.
