Ça fait un bon moment que je n'ai pas fait de #linkdump ! Et comme je suis en train de travailler un article sur le sujet, je vous propose ce fil 🧵 de liens par lesquels découvrir des sites et blogs personnels, indépendants, humains. De quoi commencer son voyage, (re)lier le web, et défaire le Dead Internet.

Last week I published my first Cybersecurity Friday post with three key steps for indieweb cybersecurity. In summary:

1. Email MFA/2FA. Add multi-factor authentication (sometimes called two-factor authentication) to everywhere you store or check email. Do not use phone/cell numbers.
2. Domain Registrar MFA. Add multi-factor authentication to your domain registrar account.
3. Web Host MFA. Same for your web host and any intermediate name servers (DNS) or content delivery network (CDN) service accounts.

Next time: entropy is your friend in security.

Every two weeks I proctor a Zoom where we look at #CSS and #HTML and solve #FrontEnd problems as best we can. We call it Front End Study Hall on the #IndieWeb next one? Tomorrow! Join us! https://events.indieweb.org/2025/02/front-end-study-hall-022-Ml4JWHiZeiVt

i think i will scrap it, so here is a fancy star background i made. the layers here are ordered from bottom to top:

  • colorful noise ("light"): bottom layer. should be fixed if the others scroll, or should scroll if the others are fixed.
  • mostly black ("pinpricks): this layer reveals only some of the pixels from the light layer, creating stars of a variety of shades.
  • black blobby texture ("voids"): this layer covers up even more of the stars, making them less repetitive.

the final image is what the background looks like put together.

if implemented correctly, the stars should twinkle as you scroll!
i like to display all the images at 2x scale, which makes the stars both softer and brighter.

example usage in css:

background:
url('./star-voids.png') center 0 / 146px,
url('./star-pinpricks.png') center 0 / 262px,
url('./star-light.png') fixed center 0 / 146px,
#000;

sorry if mastodon butchers the images somehow. i wouldn't expect it to since it's presumably made by people who are actually smart.

If not self-hosted, what email providers do people like on the #SmallWeb #indieweb ?

Something I'm really proud of: a CSS-only toggle to enable a "Game Boy Color screen filter"

```
:has(#gbc-filter:checked) img[src*=".gbc."] {
mix-blend-mode: multiply;
filter: saturate(0.8) hue-rotate(-2deg);
}
```

The page background is based on a real photo of a GBC.

🆕 Simulating JS await with generator functions

💬 Did you know that before async functions existed in JS, we simulated them with generator functions? Come with me on a code journey, in which I reveal the relatively short helper function that made it all possible.

Le web indépendant souffre d'un problème de découvrabilité de nouveau contenu. Voici deux outils pour découvrir du contenu indépendant de qualité :

- 5 liens de blog #IndieWeb aléatoires dans votre terminal :
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43148408
Cette commande retourne 5 articles aléatoires du catalogue https://indieblog.page/

- le "RSS Discovery Engine", un moteur de recherche qui permet de découvrir les flux RSS de blogs similaires à un site en particulier. https://quakkels.com/posts/rss-is-wonderful/

He visto peña hablando de RSS y quiero aprovechar para recordar que tengo este artículo con una guía para usar RSS (a nivel consumidor).

https://diegologs.com/guia-rss

Si no sabéis que blog seguir también tengo una página de Blogroll en la que recomiendo varios blogs, entre ellos algunos en español (si tenéis blog os animo a crear vuestro propio Blogroll).

Forever a work in progress, I fixed some broken pagination links on my website, added some fantastic art from Olly Costello on the frontpage, and polished it up a bit... take a look! <3

Today is one of those days when I wish I had a permanent, full time design/illustration job, a part time job, or even a few jobs with a retainer. Just something regular that I can get my teeth into! Something that has real world impact on sustainability and wellbeing a bonus! (examples of such work in portfolio)

Anyone in the market for a skilled designer with 18 years of industry experience, and is kinda nice as well 😅

Of course, if you don't know what "VPN" means (or if you can't be bothered because it reminds you of work too much) that's cool too!
Just pick an instance you feel fine about and remember moving your account to another fedi instance is a thing, and it's not hard to do, so if you no longer feel at home where you are, it is no big deal.

Software/IT professionals/enthusiasts/curious: do you have a handful of bucks/quids/euros to spare a month? Can you find your way around ssh?
Then you should consider running your personal fediverse instance, just for yourself: it is honestly pretty damn simple.
Get yourself a tiny VPN (1 cpu/2 GiB RAM is plenty), a domain name if you're felling fancy, and deploy your own @gotosocial server: it's incredibly light, super easy to install and update, and perfectly tailored for single user/tiny instances (and consider sparing some change to the devs, as they really do an awesome job!)

Do you want a sustainable web that's independent from big predatory platforms? Because that's how you get a sustainable web that's independent from big predatory platforms!

Surprendido de que nenhum leitor RSS suporte #webmentions (e, em particular, #FreshRSS).

KrautPress Website Club



@simon hatte eine Idee:

Wir starten Ende Februar eine neue kleine Veranstaltungsreihe: den KrautPress Website Club. Gemeinsam mit Matthias Pfefferle werden wir uns einmal im Monat treffen und ganz im Sinne des WordPress-Mottos „democratize publishing“ zusammen über persönliche Websites sprechen.

...und fand die perfekten Worte um mich zu umgarnen 🫶:

Matthias ist im deutschsprachigen Raum, aber vor allem in der WordPress-Welt, eine der Instanzen zum Thema IndieWeb. Mit […]

I see the personal website as being an antidote to the corporate, centralised web. Yeah, sure, it’s probably hosted on someone else’s computer – but it’s a piece of the web that belongs to you. If your host goes down, you can just move it somewhere else, because it’s just HTML.

Sure, it’s not going to fix democracy, or topple the online pillars of capitalism; but it’s making a political statement nonetheless. It says “I want to carve my own space on the web, away from the corporations”. I think this is a radical act. It was when I originally said this in 2022, and I mean it even more today.
