Ghost 6.0 has been released, adding ActivityPub. Big update. It’s interesting how Ghost now talks about Bluesky compatibility, which works via Bridgy Fed, but they don’t mention Bridgy Fed. This feels slightly wrong to me since I’ve spent so much time working on AT Protocol.

So happy to announce this partnership! I've partnered with Sean Crisden to provide his backstage pass folks with audio recordings of my blog posts! This is how he's able to financially narrate these posts, so pick a slot, and subscribe! The first will be a Sensual Exploration of Chocolate, and then an introduction to my work, so check out https://seancrisden.com/pages/backstage-pass #Audible #Audio #Audiobook #Audiobook #Blog #Blogs #IndieWeb

Especially if you're an #indieWeb supporter, you should consider this feature *essential*, as it's what gives you the ability e.g. to make your #RSS feeds nicely formatted even on browsers that have removed built-in support for them (i.e. basically anything except for #VivaldiBrowser).

Of course, it can be used for more than that. I wrote about this (in Italian) on my website a couple of years ago

https://wok.oblomov.eu/tecnologia/uberprufungslisten/

"The small web is comprised of people, from all walks of life, all races, abilities, genders, orientations, and more.

This corner of the web, though, is where I hang out. I don't visit mainstream websites anymore unless the particular person just can't leave their tech silo, but I stay in the small web. I live the niche web. I champion the good web, because it's one of the best examples of what the web could have become years ago. It didn't, so the good web has been sidelined in favor of endless slop.
(...)
What you'll find in the small web is the communities. These communities continue to build the internet every day. These communities build bridges, introduce people to one another, gather people together to share art and stories, and look out for each other."

What project am I working on right now?

Open Mentions asked, What project(s) are you working on right now?

I'm glad to hear Google found some hard disk space to keep all those URLs.

Sad I had to delete all my Google Drive files to free up space for them, but I'm sure I can remember some of my old documents and spreadsheets if I try hard enough.

Chucked out some quick thoughts about measuring our achievement by what it took for us, not in comparison to others. Maybe somebody will appreciate.

Nothing beats discovering new content and amazing personal websites than browsing bukmark.club. I've caught myself hitting that random button a lot these past few days.

Vous faites parties des gens qui en ont marre de la GAFAMisation / #merdification du Web (c’est pareil : les 1ers sont la cause de la 2e) et voulez retrouver des sites PERSO faits à l’ancienne et surtout avec amour et le goût de partager des choses sans vous prendre pour le véritable produit vendu ?

Also- my #indieweb shirt had its first day out:

A short, simple post, but I just could not get it to come out quite the way I wanted. Writing can be so unexpectedly hard sometimes.

I need to work on my July devlog but am so behind. There has to be a support group somewhere for people with anxiety about writing devlogs. Maybe a subset of #indieweb stuff.
