@tchambers @newsmast Three cheers for such a great community!

The #IndieWeb is strong. And people who like the indie web have chosen a server that represents them. More thank 12k! Wowza!

@gugurumbe I personally use the #Rust scraper crate to do this: you basically tell it to extract sections by CSS path, and it always does the right thing. I think sometimes lax standards are better than rigid ones, and that current HTML/CSS serves the #indieweb very well. X{HTML,ML} is all too finicky for the casual web producers like me.

[ps. there is also a Rust microformats crate, but that's been rubbish in my experience.]

You probably never knew you needed the Little Fermat Theorem, but if you were decent at maths at school and would like to tickle your little brain cells, you will be pleasantly engaged by this blog post: Baby Steps for Adults to the Little Fermat Theorem. Enjoy!

After 4 months of working on Jottit I've decided to start over. I was using it for my own site and kept blogging, but Jottit was built around pages and wiki-style editing. Blogging was an afterthought. And the tech I was most excited about (git-backed, everything as files) was stuff 99% of people would never care about. I was building for myself, not for them. #indieweb #jottit

Right now I like the #indieweb #webmentions / #microformats more than #activitypub / #jsonld, because the author chooses which replies appear below their post. I think it would be better if there was an expectation to regularly validate the webmentions (we have HTTP caching for that), and also for #xhtml instead of html. I’m not familiar with the LD markup languages, but maybe there exists something more interoperable than microformats (with proper URIs for properties).

> I think we should almost always take a CLI-first approach to our application development, Then, if the users really need a simpler, more graphical way to interact with your software, create a TUI, and only if the TUI couldn't satisfy the needs of your users, because of the nature of the application or the nature of your users, create a GUI.

Right now I like the #indieweb #webmentions / #microformats more than #activitypub / #jsonld, because the author chooses which replies appear below their post. I think it would be better if there was an expectation to regularly validate the webmentions (we have HTTP caching for that), and also for #xhtml. Activitypub forgot that we are humans talking, so we need a markup language. When we get microformats-in-html-in-jsonld, see whether the json developers will claim it is human readable.

After some experiences in my past years and seeing ythe trends in tech, software and politics, I can firmly say that "We need apocalypse-proof" software.

I explained it further here, and also introduced some software tools that might be ueful in dire situations

Wow! I've got 23 new blogs I am subscribed to now. I've put them all in my feed reader (FreshRSS) under a "MastoBlogs" category.

I'll follow them for a while and if I like what you folks are saying I'll keep them around... if it's not my cup of tea (not everything is) I can always unsubscribe.

This is the Indie Web we all need to keep building (and, bringing back, to some degree.)

#IndieWeb #web #RSS

Built and am still improving a public web tool to explore music as a graph instead of a list.

Artists, bands, albums, instruments, collaborations — all navigable as an interactive node network on top of MusicBrainz data.

Music isn’t linear. It’s a web. So this lets you wander it.

Check it out and let me know what you think, all feedback is welcome :)

I’m curiousâ€Ļ If you have a personal website or blog, do you share it with your “in-person” close friends and family? Why or why not?

#IndieWeb Homebrew Website Club / Pacific will be on Wednesday 6pm PST: https://events.indieweb.org/2026/02/homebrew-website-club-pacific-Bj9jWBNYSpTG

What do we do? Talk websites and how to keep our websites our own.

Switched from ZNC to Soju as my IRC bouncer recently. Followed a little curiosity about it. Here's a little note that came from it: https://susam.net/soju-user-delete-hash.html

Had a friend beg me to get on Substack, again. I tried to say I will not do so for a whole, heh, host of reasons. So to all, here is my RSS feed. Share it with someone that likes blogs about living an anxious life as a blind person. Fiction and creative Nonfiction. I have a podcast with blog post narrations for those that cannot, or choose not to, read. https://sightlessscribbles.com/feed.xml #RSS #IndieWeb

Moving servers is probably as good as a time as any to finally make an #Introduction post.

Hello! I'm Michael, I'm from NW Indiana (#RegionRat), still in Indiana, and I'm an audio engineer. I'm primarily in corporate audio, but I freelance around with bands and venues in Indy. I have an #IndieWeb website up in my bio that I blog at from time to time. Big physical media nerd with #Vinyl & Blu-Rays and love pretty much anything #Music or #Film related.

Moved here from mastodon.social in 2026.
