I really tried making a conventional website, but i still hate homepages. I reverted Z1NZ0L1N to my old “the latest article is the homepage” and “the footer is the header” tricks. I couldn’t explain why it feels so much better. #indieweb

I've read a number of posts about blogging/digital gardens/personal websites recently from various perspectives, mostly about why it's a good thing, and found myself to be in agreement with all of them. This is my attempt to reflect on reclaiming my own creative space and putting into words what it means to me.

the DuckDuckGo search engine has a “lite” version.

https://start.duckduckgo.com/lite

It’s even better than the original early 2000s-era Google front page, they don’t even have the “I’m feeling lucky” feature. It is precisely three elements: company name, query input field, search button.

Here, let me copy-paste the HTML source of this page here:

<body>
<a name="top"></a>
<center id="lite_wrapper">
<br>
<span class="header">DuckDuckGo</span>
<br><br>
<form action="/lite/" method="post">
<input class="query" type="text" size="40" name="q" autocomplete="off" value="" autofocus="">
<input class="submit" type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
<br>
<p class="html-only">
<!-- This is the Lite version.
Get the full-JS version <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/">here</a>.

I watched Local Hero for the August IndieWeb Movie Club. I went into it knowing nothing about it and quite enjoyed it. There was some great, subtle humor in it and a surprisingly young Peter Capaldi (25!). It unfolded slowly but never felt slow or boring. I think it is one I would definitely re-watch sometime. Thanks for the recommendation, Thomas!

Appreciate all who joined #IndieWeb HWC Eastern meeting yesterday. Trying for every two weeks for that meeting: evening in the East Coast USA (10am New Zealand time). A balm in a turbulent time to talk websites with friendly folks. Notes: https://indieweb.org/events/2025-09-10-hwc-eastern

At #IndieWeb HWC we ran VS Code w/"Live Share" plugin. In a few minutes 5 of us wrote a web page. Surveillance tech is an enshittified anti-labour mess but tools—the means of production—to pamphleteer and agitate and samizdat and protest are in our hands. Websites. https://jamesg.blog/2025/09/11/collaborative-web-weaving-coding

🌐 Markdown-powered websites, now live on InlineStyle!

Just drop a .md file in your Website folder and it becomes a clean HTML page at yourname.inli.me.
No build steps. No configs. Just Markdown → Web.

Collaborative web weaving

with Github getting worse and worse, I made a contribution to the #indieweb by adding Codeberg as an authentication provider for IndieLogin.com! :neofox_floof_mug:

if you're not familiar, it lets you log in to other websites with your domain name as your identity, by leveraging GitHub OAuth, email, and PGP keys linked to on your website
