To further celebrate #2026, the almanac section of my site got spruced up - lots of interesting events that revolve around #fandom, #maker, the #paranormal, #libraries, and #witch stuff (including space and astronomy) to note for 2026.

Would love to hear about some of yours to add too! What are you putting down for special things happening this year? Cheers!

Happy New Year! 🥂

I’ve only drafted a few posts since my last update ten days ago, but I’ve still put a lot of work into my blog.

I added a resize button you can maximize the content window with.

I also wrote a custom #pelican plugin so I can use callouts like in #Obsidian markdown. (I already used it in my last post to create a content warning.)

With the days being mostly dull and dark, I wanted to make reading my blog less eye-straining. So, I added a dark mode toggle and a dark theme based on a cherry cola palette. (I love cherry coke! 😋)

To keep my blog static while still allowing comments, I’ve added a backlink on each article’s statusbar to the toot I shared about them. You can comment and like there.

Hi Frens I'm looking for where I can find a massive array of clip art like this?

#clipart #indieweb #webdev #frontend

Indie Web Carnival posted their December 2025 round-up of user submitted responses to the prompt, "where you see the #IndieWeb in 2030".

Some really cool posts to check out. I think some are more technical than others.

Just in time for the IndieWeb Hackathon, you can now install Omnibear from the Firefox Add-on store! It’s also available for Edge and we’re working on Chrome. Please try it out if your site supports Micropub and consider contributing!

Having a blog of my own on the #indieweb was first in my bucket list for a long time.

A few weeks ago, I discovered omg.lol and realised that was exactly what I was looking for: an easy and painless door to the my little piece of the internet.

Today, 1st January, and I took the step and created my address: yvan.omg.lol. It is a WIP, but I am really looking forward to creating and posting some stuff 😄

Thanks @adam for making it so easy!

Let's start this new year with a new blog post. This time about my journey into Emacs as my main PKM tool.

Looking for something interesting to read today? Here’s a round up of all the entries from last month’s #IndieWebCarnival reflecting on where the #IndieWeb will be – or where we all want it to be – by 2030.

Finished my December Adventure with an unfinished project, as is tradition. I'm in the process of extracting a standalone IndieAuth client atop the OAuth2 crate. Full adventure log:

The IndieWeb in 2030 - https://l.prry.uk/articles/2025-12-31-the-indieweb-in-2030/

Having discovered that 2025 marked the 10 year anniversary of my return to the indie web, I've spent the last six months making small, incremental improvements in just about every part of my web life.

Felt like the right thing to do, on the final day of the year, to write something about these little side quests: https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/the-ad-hoc-10

Here's to an even more productive and independent 2026 🥂

Thanks for your contribution, Jeff.

I agree that by the strict definition of the term #IndieWeb most of us aren’t even on the IndieWeb. I too see it much more loosely, and in line with how you describe your own site: domain, hosting and a handful of pages. Can’t go wrong with that.
