šŸ”– Bookmarked RSS blogrolls are a federated social network (https://alexsci.com/blog/blogroll-network/)

Robert Alexander explores the potential of RSS feeds and blogrolls to create a federated social network that revitalises the small web, similar to what the fediverse has done for social media. Think of a network of connected blogrolls.

šŸ”– Bookmarked dealing with rage bait in the indie web (https://blog.avas.space/rage-bait/)

Ava discusses the concept of **rage bait** on the indie web. Bad actors amongst our spaces intentionly drawing out strong emotional reactions from others, hiding their true nature. What moderation options exist, especially when these messages of ill will exist on their own websites?

Lately, I’ve been rethinking what matters for me design. Too much of it fights for attention instead of serving a purpose.

For me, design should be:
āœ”ļø Simple, clear and useful.
āœ”ļø Honest—no tricks, no noise.
āœ”ļø Calm, not overwhelming.
āœ”ļø Built to last, not trends.
āœ”ļø Information upfront, no digging.

I got severe hives unexpectedly, so the blog's release might be delayed a bit šŸ˜“ Rest assured, though, that the blog is already 97% done. I've gone in a different direction from when I started, so here's an in-the-works screenshot of what you can expect from the final blog.

Does dot com still have the pull that it did?

Because I’ve never really felt like it’s inherently better

I don’t own any dot com domains, I’d rather use one that’s more in line with the actual site

I use dot me for personal sites, dot app for my apps, dot dev for my dev business, and dot social for my old mastodon instance

@octade are you familiar with the #IndieWeb movement? There are folks in it that have sites with this vibe. Some of them are even bringing back web rings.

Made a few new changes to The Digital Renaissance's website:
- Accent color is less prevalent (less obnoxious, IMO)
- Links to some of my more prominent tags
- Featured articles

New post on The Digital Renaissance: On: Choosing How You React

"Sometimes people like to conflate ā€œchoose how you reactā€ with ā€œignore the problemā€ but that’s just not it"

Ok #indieweb, what's everyone's favorite looking indie sites out there? Looking for some #webdesign inspiration 😃

I'll start, 4 of my favorites are...

Trying to tweak my color schemes, font and maybe general spacing on the site... maybe tune up some of the structural stuff too, just not quite sure.

Whatcha got?

As someone relatively new to #indieweb and creating a proper #blog, are you more content with #rss or do you prefer a #newsletter as well or both? Or something else?

Something else (explain)

Woke up early this morning and have been reading many interesting blog posts from the #bearblog community.

Made a new online friend today through email from over there.

Tweaked my blog with some new ideas I read from these blogs. Busy morning.

@zenbrowser has made some great progress with the latest update, it's really nice to use

On a very related note, I've been encouraging folks to create their own websites and blogs, which can help us create communities, regain control of our digital lives, but also counteract the efforts of our governments and institutions to erase our shared history and culture.

Here's a few tools that might help.

I've just published my first article on my security research;Ā starting things off light with a fun little content injection. :)

(This also happens to be the debut of a basic site generator I whipped up in Lua — long live the #IndieWeb, long live static HTML!)

... and if this doesn't sound like you, maybe it sounds like a friend of yours? Please pass it along.

Also, next week there will be an #IndieWeb Zoom event where the topic will be writing.
