Buying independence beyond platforms.
👇
"Relying on any single platform—no matter how writer-friendly—means ceding control over the stability of our audience. Our solution is not to abandon ship, nor to retreat into isolation, but to prepare. Preparation means taking agency to build an independent presence: A home for our words no algorithm can bury, a way to stay connected even if the digital tides turn."

Currently indulging myself by reading about the enshittification of Substack lol.
It's sad, but predictable, how if you bring social media dynamics to a once-cosy platform of writers, things go to hell.
A well-known writer I follow who has 39k followers wrote about how things have drastically changed the last few months. Journalists, celebrities are now dominating the platform and small fry writers are no longer seen.
For me, I've seen an uptick of outrage content and reply guys and debate bros. It's sad how the moment one writes a narrative that the mob doesn't agree with, they pile on you.
This is the opposite of what Substack stood for in the past.
I will still use Substack, because I'm a practical person nor do I choose platforms based on its morality or ideals, but how it serves me. But it's sad because I remember how it was before the bigwigs tried to change it to the next Twitter.
However, this is a very good reminder for me to double, triple down on my website and remember NOT to "build a presence" and do more digital sharecropping than necessary on Substack.

Here's my entry for this month's IndieWeb carnival, hosted by @immarisabel!
I was excited for this prompt since it gives me the opportunity to talk about “color” as it relates to musical timbre, and how I like to emphasize those aspects when I write music:

I've been prevaricating recently with my #indieWeb workflow. Here I talk through my current setup, options that I have been considering, the latest update to @mauricerenck indieConnector plugin, and why I will probably end up changing (almost) nothing at all.

I'm still trying to remember what site it was I had an account on where I did checkins but was NOT dodgeball/swarm. https://artlung.com/elsewhere/ - it may take a while before I feel like this page is complete.
In an #IndieWeb sense, my website has outlasted a whole bunch of these.

Remember webrings?
I made Webring Studio to bring them back — and it’s live now. 🌐
Take a peek:
WP site → https://webringstudio.com
App → https://app.webringstudio.com
Sale details → https://webringstudio.com/app-for-sale/
Here’s the twist → my life’s shifting gears, and this indie web project is looking for a new owner.

Can I ask a small favour from anyone with a few moments to go look at a web page?
The #WebMention on this #WritingPrompts page came with pictures. I added some CSS to tidy up the images in the layout. Does it still look good on whatever you used to view it?
Page in question: https://openmentions.com/topics/art-and-literature/writing/writing-prompts/

I’m coming around to build what you need
I recently encountered a good counterpoint to my rejection of build what you need. Maybe it is okay after all.
