Thanks to the IndieWeb I emailed a stranger. And other strangers send emails to my inbox.

Thanks to the IndieWeb I like emails again. 😍

My website now fully supports webmentions. This is a test in sending them automatically from my posts.

Building all my own tools for posting to my website and sharing content on the internet was easily the best thing I've done in years. #IndieWeb all the things!! (https://crowdersoup.com/blog/post/note-1771616710/)

Tomorrow: indie web livestream @ 2PM CT.

Just surfing the small web, checking out some cool sites and seeing where it takes us.

Requests go first, so if you'd like your site in the rotation, let me know.

"Ei, vocĂȘ, leitor:

Jå esteve navegando no blog, no site, no repo de alguém - até mesmo no perfil da rede social - e pensou consigo mesmo: "Uau, isso é realmente legal". Eu amo o que eles fizeram aqui!

Considere dizer para eles! Alguém aqui fez um post hå algum tempo incentivando as pessoas a fazer exatamente isso, e eu tentei criar um håbito consciente de entrar em contato com os autores de pequenos sites indie e pequenos.

E-mail, livro de visitas, comentĂĄrio; seja ele qual for, considere entrar em contato de alguma forma para compartilhar sua apreciação. VocĂȘ pode se surpreender com o quanto isso faz o seu dia.
VocĂȘ tambĂ©m pode se surpreender ao descobrir o quanto fazer o dia deles faz o seu tambĂ©m.

Proud to present what I've been haphazardly webweaving - WWW.GREENSLEEVES.WEBSITE

It's a real URL and a real website, take a look at it!

I hope this gives a sense of what the Greensleeves collecting project is like - but I'm calling this version 1.0 because there is so much more I'll be adding as time goes on

So is this what it's like to publish a website on the internet? Just constantly thinking of ways I can revamp it and make it better for visitors?

Working on my new Micropub app this weekend #IndieWeb #Dispatch

New on the blog: The one where I am rediscovering my CD collection.

I also changed up some other things, as you can read in the changelog on my
homepage. One of those things are a switch from sans serif to serif body font. I'm not sure yet if I like it though.

LB: Isso Ă© uma boa ideia. É muito legal receber uma mensagem por conta de algo que vocĂȘ publicou.

That determined little bot (likely a scraper) is still trying to access my homepage every ten minutes, still getting blocked every single time. It has been almost a week now, and the bot's owner still hasn't noticed.

Should I give it a name? I should give it a name.

Hey, you, reader:

Ever been browsing someone's blog, website, repo -- even their social web profile -- and thought to yourself "Wow, that's really neat. I love what they did here!"

Consider telling them! Someone on here made a post a while back encouraging people to do just that, and I've tried to make a conscious habit of contacting the authors of neat little indie and smolweb sites.

Email, guestbook, comment; whatever it might be, consider reaching out somehow to share your appreciation. You might be surprised at how much it makes their day.

You might also be surprised to discover how much making their day makes yours, too.

In an ecosystem full of plugins and page builders, it’s worth asking:

Do we really need them all?

Our CEO explains why WordPress core-only development leads to better performance, security, and maintainability — especially for long-term projects.

#100DaysToOffload day 32:

I've been learning about the indie web, and it's not exactly what I thought. I had the wrong impression that it was just a new version of Geocities and similar sites, but it's everyone that has a personal site. It may be a blog, a static site, a gallery, maybe a random app, etc. But with your own domain.

The main idea is ownership, which you get by publishing on your own site. And after that you may share it on any other social media you want.

This is pushing me to start my blog, but I freeze when I start seeing all the possibilities.
- I want a place to share my hobbies and to show my work. Should this be the same, or completely different
- what am I going to talk about, it feels like having an open mic without anything prepared to say
- should I publish on Spanish or English. Or both, here I started on English to force me to practice a bit. But on my personal site I would like it to be on both although that may be too much
- finally how much time am I willing to spend on all this

Hi #indieweb Mastodon community
I'm old timer here and other Mastodon server I was previously @rmdes@mstdn.social and very recently moved to my own #Fedify #indiekit AP instance
meaning I'm the only indiekit user with an AP actor endpoint https://browser.pub/rmendes.net

I'm still testing migration (ongoing) I may have lost some social connection but its okay.

I'm using this account to verify my Fedify AP works as expected

I made a small but satisfying change to the footer of my blog. Previously, it had two recommendation cards for recent posts, but they didn’t provide any context. Since I organize my blog into three main categories: Technology, Family, and Photography, I’ve updated the recommendations to show posts from each category, making them more relevant.
