Rebuilding the indieweb one tendril at a time.
This is what we need to do. Rebuild the internet, reclaim the word social in social media and put people before platforms.
We must uncouple our attention from the tech-bro, elitist, narrative-controlling monopolies1 and get back to building individual, independant website presences. The indieweb.
Sites that are shared and aggregated by RSS feeds, collected into like-minded groups by webrings, boosted with decentralised social media platforms such as Mastodon, and cross-pollinated with interlinks and cross site conversations from individual posts.
Subvert, bypass, and starve the big platforms of their attention oxygen. Let them suffocate in a circle-jerk of AI generated slop.
There is now a growing movement of people dumping the scroll-gatekeepers, and building their own cheap, simple (often retro looking) independant websites.
Here is an example: Daryl Sun has a simple site that is packed with information and interesting links for anyone spending a little time to click rather than scroll (just like here).
In the spirit of re-wilding the web and creating interesting tendrils, I have updated my own ABOUT PAGE to let you know far more about me than you ever knew you wanted to know. It is a work in progress and will grow over time.
Another great example is Brennan, who writes some really interesting stuff and has recently begun moving his focus from posting on Medium to growing his independent site.
He always has tons of interesting outgoing links, is a member of a heap of webrings, as well as including a slash page of all his interests and projects.
I am gaining a lot of inspiration from this movement and urge you to consider dropping out of the shittosphere of big social media and spending that newfound scroll time creating your own independent online presence.
Let us tear the whole thing down and rebuild it fit for purpose.
If you already have a indie website drop me a link in the comments….I would love to follow and share.
I have just updated my about page. This is why.....

Treating your personal website like a garden you tend continuously, not as a finished construction, but rather cultivated, authentic fragmented of web. #blog #Hugo #IndieWeb: https://gagor.pro/2026/01/digital-gardening/
I'm collecting url patterns for RSS/Atom feeds on websites for some sites. There are other pages which collect these, this is mine. https://smorgasborg.artlung.com/feed-patterns/ #IndieWeb

Stumbled over #IndieAuth again and am once again reminded that I (badly?) chose all my domain names that I like them, but not have them as my "handle" on any platform. I don't want to be @f5n.org - so this is something of a problem for adopting that pattern.
HI HELLO, I have started work on my fan site for one of my favorite manga series, #Hirayasumi!! It is still VERY much a work-in-progress but I would be quite chuffed if you checked it out (and also check out Hirayasumi!!)
TIL that <small> in HTML does not like inline style parameters. I had to give it a margin and couldn't. So, the element above had to be styled instead.

I don't have to tell you that if i share a video and you like it, you can find more similar videos on the creators YouTube channel, right? If you're logged in, YouTube will recommend other videos like it to you in any case.

Thank goodness for independent media! Still too many people plugged into the #murdochmatrix and their ilk - time to unplug!
