This blog is also WebMention powered

My social node blog is powered by WebMentions. I agree with Matt Steele that WebMentions are cool. I’d like to see all indie blogs using them.

My project, OpenMentions, was built around WebMentions. All of the shrine pages and mini blogs on isbrill.com support WebMention. I’ll skip mentioning the rest of the stuff I’m connected to. If you want the full list ping me with a mention.

Give all your pings to me (what song’s tune did you read that in?)

This blog is also powered by ActivityPub (because I can)

Is WebMention dying?

No, I don’t think it is. I do think that we WebMention users need to find each other a little more.

Reflected about how I define #Blogging after being featured in People&Blogs.

I have been an avid reader for years. This needs more publicity — even if it's only on YouTube.

@fasnix Also, have a look at https://indieweb.org/ I just learned about it a few weeks ago.

I've been spending a lot of time on blogs and personal websites lately. Each one is unique in its own way. So much fun getting to know you bloggers out there. Keep blogging!

One good feature #Marginalia has is that it tells you before hand about "anti features" of a website.

Like in the attached screenshot, this website has got Tracking, Javascript and Ads.

It also has features to remove results which have got ads or Javascript. These features come very handy in the "modern" world wide web.

I really appreciate the developer's efforts. I hope #FOSS #SearchEngines could one day excel. And I hope support for languages other than English will be added soon enough.

To one who recently achieved his Masters (in sustainability and adaptation #ClimateChange ) the hard way this is both fascinating and frightening.

As with the #ClimateEmergency it is so hard for the individual to make a difference with the onslaught of algorithm driven social media and AI.

Hopefully my #IndieWeb attempt (not yet past the domain registration stage) will add a grain of sand to the beach of truth 😹

Had a burst of energy and got my uses page up!

I used to have a tools page, but it became unwieldy and I dropped it

This version requires me to keep track of a lot fewer categories and links

A little surprising, Meta is expanding the Threads API. Might be time to consider doing more with it. Micro.blog can cross-post but only retrieve posts if the fediverse is enabled. Downside of doing more is jumping through the hoops of Meta’s approval machine.

i started throwing some of the stuff from us organizing the Philly HTML Day event together in a @kinopio space. it's a place to gather together artifacts to fine tune it later. In its current state, it's not as good for permanent archival purposes or structure, and I don't expect it to be.

Another new #blog post!! I know right!! My only two modes are "never update" and "push out a bunch of updates in a row," I'm sorry! Anyway these are some #Eleventy plugins I recommend and how to add them to your site. It follows directly from the guide I posted earlier!

It's Friday so as told by the prophecy I return with Scraps, my little human-curated #roundup of links to some great #blog posts and other interesting content. The #indieweb, the #humanweb and the #infosec & #sysadmin worlds collide in this week's Scraps: https://fyr.io/scrap/2025-07-25

We're six (6) editions deep with no signs of slowing down. Take a look if you wish. You might find something you like!

Agent for book brainstorming

Trying ChatGPT Agent to sort of cross-reference blog post ideas with my Indie Microblogging book chapter topics.

Went through my personal site and removed/replaced relevant deadlinks with wayback machine references.

Notably made updates to my "spaces" page and my blog post about how to make your own handcrafted site. There are still some spaces I participated in over the past three years that I never added and can't quite remember lol. I'll figure it out.

BTW I am looking for terms as an alternative to web "bloat". Maybe web "churn"?

Thanks @synchron for sharing https://www.deadlinkchecker.com/

Most of my site links are good, but there's a folder of images and a handful of links to indie web blog posts that I'll want to review
