I'm loving this month's IndieWeb Carnival blogging focus, museums (https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_Carnival) with @capjamesg hosting it. His introduction is quite good: https://jamesg.blog/2026/03/01/indieweb-carnival-museum-memories
This took me down a bit of a rabbit hole as I have an affinity for museums (I initially was thinking just art museums, but I disabused myself of that quickly). I may have more than one post on museums, but the precursor is up https://vanderwal.net/random/entrysel.php?blog=2137
First vouched webmention
Yesterday I received my first vouched webmention!
Jeff Bridgforth wrote a post for the IndieWeb carnival, where he links to my post.
His website sent my website a webmention.
Normally this would go into a queue for verification. But, because I follow James in my blogroll, and becaus…

When there have been repeated investigations that show that engagement is driven by negative emotion, how can you trust the algorithm to show you content you like, instead of content that will keep you clicking more?
Switching to subscribing to RSS feeds is not a definitive cure. But it’s a step towards a more independent digital consumption.

#ActivityPub support in #Madblog
https://blog.fabiomanganiello.com/article/Madblog-federated-blogging-from-markdown
I am glad to announce that Madblog has now officially joined the #Fediverse family.
Madblog has already supported #Webmentions for the past couple of weeks, allowing your blog posts to be mentioned by other sites with Webmentions support (WordPress, Lemmy, HackerNews…) and get those mentions directly rendered on your page.
It now adds ActivityPub support too, using #Pubby, another little Python library that I’ve put together myself (just like Webmentions) as a mean to quickly plug ActivityPub support to any Python Web app.
Webmentions and Pubby follow similar principles and implement a similar API, and you can easily use them to add federation support to your existing Web applications - a single bind_webmentions or bind_activitypub call to your existing Flask/FastAPI/Tornado application should suffice for most of the cases.
Madblog may have now become the easiest way to publish a federated blog - and perhaps the only way that doesn’t require a database, everything is based on plain Markdown files.
If you have a registered domain and a certificate, then hosting your federated blog is now just a matter of:
mkdir -p ~/madblog/markdown
cat <<EOF > ~/madblog/markdown/hello-world.md
This is my first post on [Madblog](https://git.fabiomanganiello.com/madblog)!
EOF
docker run -it \
-p 8000:8000 \
-v "$HOME/madblog:/data" \
quay.io/blacklight/madblogAnd Markdown files can be hosted wherever you like - a Git folder, an Obsidian Vault, a Nextcloud Notes installation, a folder on your phone synchronized over SyncThing…
Federation support is also at a quite advanced state compared to e.g. #WriteFreely. It currently supports:
Interactions rendered on the articles: if you like, boost, quote or reply to an article, all interactions are rendered directly at the bottom of the article (interactions with WriteFreely through federated accounts were kind of lost in the void instead)
Guestbook support (optional): mentions to the federated Madblog handle that are not in response to articles are now rendered on a separate /guestbook route
Email notifications: all interactions can have email notifications
Support for quotes, also on Mastodon
Support for mentions, just drop a @joe@example.com in your Markdown file and Joe will get a notification
Support for hashtag federation
Support for split-domain configurations, you can host your blog on blog.example.com but have a Fediverse handle like @blog@example.com. Search by direct post URL on Mastodon will work with both cases
Support for custom profile fields, all rendered on Mastodon, with verification support
Support for moderation, either through blocklist or allowlist, with support for rules on handles/usernames, URLs, domains or regular expressions
A partial (but comprehensive for the provided features) implementation of the Mastodon API
If you want you can follow both the profiles of my blogs - they are now both federated:
My personal blog: @fabio (it used to run WriteFreely before, so if you followed it you may need to unfollow it and re-follow it)
The #Platypush blog: @blog
Es gibt eine neue Slash-Page (und ein paar aktualisierte Inhalte). Na, wer findet die neue Seite? 😆
I was recently interviewed by the wonderful @Sam@ethicalrevolution for NHAM about music, the indie-web, The Kalimera Show, spirituial vampires and such like. Was an absolutely plesasure!
NHAM do brilliant work bringing attention to indie music makers and very happy to have been asked to contribute.
Also be sure to check out the archive and other features, it's a very cool site.

Greetings, folks
A new button arrived
to celebrate the oldies of the Wild Wide Web
Two versions are available — neutral (here since) and for rightfully opinionated ones (complaining since) ![]()

AND it's a GIF by default. I tried uploading here but each time it was in crappy quality ![]()

I am not opposed to this phoenix cycle, so long as it is building on the previous work and not redesigning the UI.
Yes, it would be great if someone financially backed a dedicated FLOSSy team project for decades. France and Germany have begun to do so; maybe it will become stylish again.
In the meantime, the #indieweb encourages us to tinker, to build our own if we want, and to share, collaborate.
Citizen! External consequences got you down? Looking for a smaller circle or results? May we interest you in Jurisdictional Responsibility, the latest moral advancement from the Institute of Responsible Autonomy.

Simplified my blogroll a bit. It is no longer a periodically updated list of posts. It is now just a static list of websites. It may sound like a step backward but it removes a few moving parts and simplifies the website setup.
My blogroll is perhaps the only page on my website where every link is purple for me. I visit them all.
There is also an OPML file at the end that provides a feed of all the websites in my blogroll.
