I love any opportunity to tell others about my taste in music, so I appreciate the tag 😄

So it goes, I'm tagging @cashmere_crypt , and @thraeryn to follow suit.

A throwback to a design experiment I played with 5 years ago:

How might a visual layout tool work if the only interactions with it were "edit text" and "split canvas?"

As you can see from https://cathode.church/fedi-scraper-counter.html they don't respect the #NoBot #NoAI etc. Tags. And in my experience, especially online, people are rarely searching in good faith, they want someone to pick at, but the bigger issue is the above violates consent, so if I have the #NoBot tec tags on my profile, everyone of those would scrape my content anyway. The other half of this is refusing to comprehend that there are a large number of people that don't want to be other's content and want to post among their federated circle and value organic, human, growth over someone just randomly finding them. While this isn't fully me, for example, anyone can see me, but I don't wanna interact with everybody, which is why I don't have #WebMentions on my blog for example. In truth, I don't want any data of theirs on my website, period, and this includes social media replies. I'd like a one way web mention instead, where they know I linked them but interaction is on my terms not theirs, but going back to the above, the above gives examples where consent is violated. Not everyone is worth interacting with online. @miturian

"The #internet was made for connection.Today, it has been colonized by corporations. The #network itself is under attack. Many people spend the majority of their time online using silos that block outbound links to the indie web. Google’s voracious greed is undercutting the value of participating in the #openweb by transforming the labor of writers into generated “answers” rather than connecting readers with websites."

I'm looking forward to today's Homebrew Website Club - Writing Edition

I really struggle with creating interesting content. I've got a lot to learn and I'm hoping to find some inspiration as well.

Heyo Fedi folks! Today I'm announcing the launch of my "newsletter"-ish thing I've dubbed "Scrolls". Scrolls is a weekly #newsletter / link roundup / information digest at the intersection of the #IndieWeb and the #Fediverse, with a splash of #Cybersecurity stuff thrown in there just for fun. Check it out!

Let me know what ya think, and if there's anything you'd like to see covered in the future, etc... Would love to see it get boosted about so others can check it out too!

Yet another way to find blogs and feeds, and even lists of blog posts to try! It's very fast too and I just love browsing directories like this! https://minifeed.net/about #Blog #RSS #Blogging #IndieWeb #SmallWeb

In reply to Webmentions Testing Tool – beatonma.org.
Currently experimenting once again with adding Webmention support to my blog. I think maybe I figured it out this time. #indieweb 👍 https://beatonma.org/webmentions_tester/?#
