I think this month's IndieWeb Carnival blogging challenge will appeal to a lot of people here.

@jonmsterling I use the #IndieWeb #micropub and #microsub standards for an interface I created on top of the FreshRSS reader's API. This allows me to, from inside my reading flow to post to my blog / other sites I have, my local notes, my hypothes.is annotations and Mastodon (and do so simultaneously or separately)

Should an RSS reader look like an e-mail client? Believe it or not, i have some (contrarian) thoughts. #weeknote #indieweb

Iโ€™m building ElseWhere, a community-driven map where people pin places, moods, and music.

No ads. No algorithm. Just wandering.

Recent updates: night mode, filters, multi-image uploads, and Spotify embeds.

I did a writeup of my re-watch of โ€œAlienโ€ (1979) for this month's IndieWeb movie club. I talk about some of the sound design, and a portion of the score that I noticed sounds surprisingly like Bartรณk.

Thanks @alabut for hosting this month!

Digital Self-Reliance: News & Information

The freedom to share information world wide is what made the internet great. So, why do we allow tech bros, social media, and AI to limit or even control what news and information see. It's time to we rely less on these predatory platforms and curate our own news and information experience with RSS.

Question for folks into #SSG and #webdev, what's a reliable+stable option these days?

I will be updating a website with weekly content updates by someone not tech-savvy at all. They are only comfortable with Word, unfortunately.

I was thinking a static site generator with automatic deployment when pushed to a repo? But I can't settle on a CMS that is super easy to use. Are there options that are really simple to use i.e. - add new pages, edit existing page contents, add PDFs and images??

What would you suggest?
