Es geht wieder zurück in die wilden 90er (mit dem IndieWeb)

Es geht weiter mit meiner frisch erwachten Begeisterung, genau wie damals in den 90er Jahren einfach Webseiten ohne Sinn und Verstand (und vor allem auch ohne Kommerzdruck) zusammenzubasteln. Denn auch den »Happy Coder« Kevin Workman hat es erwischt: In seinem letztjährigen Seminar »Intro to Web Dev – Fall 2024« setzte er noch auf Glitch 🎏 als Spielplatz. https://kantel.github.io/posts/2026051201_indieweb_cont/ #IndieWeb #Neocities #StatischeSeiten #Webworking

כיום לכלוך יותר מאשר הגסטאפו, יכול משטרת טורונטו לרענן את הדימוי שלהם עם גיוס של מסאקוט חדש וסנסציוני? https://jungyulkim.com/free-press/he/articles/דמוקרטיה-קנדית-בסיכון-בעת-שלטונו-של-טונטו.html #News #Art #Canada #NewYork #Toronto #Mob #Crime #Indieweb #Headlines

So, uh, what's a good Creative Commons license to use for my personal website and blog?

I'm inclined to use CC-NC-SA, but, like, wouldn't that allow some asshole to copy my website, change words and make me look like a bigot or something, as along as they give credit to me? I mean, I'd rather not take credit for someone's gross mischaracterization of me.

Or... do I understand that correctly? Is there some clause in that license that restricts impersonation and targeted harassment? Wouldn't something like CC-NC-ND be better, then?

Or is this another instance of me being paranoid and thinking people are (1) out to get me, (2) more cruel than they are, and (3) that I'm a more important and consequential figure than the rational part of my mind believes?

Okay, I think I underestimated Mastodon.

I joined a few hours ago, posted a little #introduction, mentioned Linux, handwritten HTML, blogging, and missing the old internet…

…and apparently that was enough for the Fediverse to collectively adopt me like a stray HTML goblin.

My notifications are chaos.
People are kind.
Nerds are everywhere.

I may have finally found my corner of the internet. 😄

Experimenting with drop caps on my blog, straddling the line between text-focused minimalism and whimsy!

The drop cap font I'm using on the desktop version is called Medieval Alphabet Font. I was originally using Nouveau Drop Caps, which is a little more readable, but not as stereotypically "medieval." I decided to use Nouveau Drop Caps for the mobile version of my site, as the more ornate styling of Medieval Alphabet Font doesn't really work on smaller screens.

I added a simple API for consumption in case anyone wants to play around with it.

My migration from gitlab to codeberg is almost complete. If only the Forgejo Actions weren't down, I'd be able to test my release pipeline.

The earlier problem that my repo was way too large for codeberg was easily mitigated by just removing the entire history. 300 megabytes i really didn't need.

I accidentally turned a love letter to a protocol into a love letter to honest, human connections. I thought you might like it. 🌻

There’s a new podcast all about the IndieWeb — thoughtful conversations with makers, practical tips for building your own site, and inspiring stories from the community.

Wonders of Web's first episode, with Adam Newbold: web-weaving.jamesg.blog/1

#podcast #indieweb #technology

(and if you’ve never built a website, you absolutely should give it a try!)

Seria mesmo fixe montar em Portugal uma pequena célula de web responsável e funcional.

Algo simples, que circule à volta dos valores da #smallweb e da #indieweb.

Para além de ser uma directoria de websites bem feitos em Portugal, teria também uma festa IRL e um prémio anual para os websites mais improváveis.

Inspiração: https://tinyawards.net/

Alguém se anima, @sdsantos @rlafuente @teclista ?

Como todas temos poucos projetos por aqui... /s

Oh wow.

I just wanted to quickly sign up here, leave a small first post, and then slowly start building things up.

My HTML document is still open. I’m literally still working on a blog post right now.

And somehow the Fediverse welcomed me within minutes like I had been here for years.

I love this. Honestly.

But… my HTML code is waiting. 😄

New Blogroll Post

“You Need to Binge-Watch This!” by Hritika

I joined Mastodon expecting a quiet little corner of the internet.
Five minutes later the Fediverse kicked in the door, handed me coffee, and said: “You live here now.”

Not gonna lie… this is kind of lovely.

#Mastodon #Fediverse #OldWeb #SmallWeb #Blogging #IndieWeb

Well then… I’m officially on Mastodon now.

Still allergic to Meta.
Still blogging like it’s 2003.
Still writing HTML by hand like a digital cave goblin with principles.

Hello Fediverse. 🖤

#Introduction #Fediverse #OldWeb #Blogging #IndieWeb

I stumbled across a really neat directory that catalogues the lighthouses of the world.

Link to the directory: https://www.ibiblio.org/lighthouse

You can tell the amount of love and passion its authors put into it. Even the design (or the lack thereof) shows where their focus went.

Sites like this warm my heart, though in this case it wasn't without sadness; all the lighthouses of this country were destroyed recently https://www.ibiblio.org/lighthouse/pse.htm

Not sure if #indieweb but def. feels like it. #lighthouse
