It appears that complaining about Elon Musk is not making him poorer. X also remains very popular. Whatever energy we’re putting into the fediverse and atmosphere, it’s not enough, or it’s not channeled in the right direction. I think there’s a lot to reflect on as a community and adjust.

finally joining the #Fediverse
the other day caught myself locked writing a thread of loose thoughts about the current state of the internet, the big-feed-mafia and how the old multi-textured web felt so much better.
when I finished I noticed how much of what I didn't like was right there, on twitter. and if I wanted to keep writing I had to move on to the fediverse and finally setup my own (micro)blogging on an #indieweb -friendly homepage.
I'm half-way and I won't turn back 🚀

J'en rêvais depuis des mois, et maintenant, ça y est : j'ai mon site Neocities !!!
Venez y jeter un œil !
https://ici-sont-les-dragons.neocities.org/
Bon, je ne l'ai commencé qu'avant-hier, donc il est loin d'être fini ( d'autant plus que je n'avais presque pas fait de HTML avant ). Mais j'ai de grands projets pour lui.

Great essay on why it’s important that we support on another on the #indieweb .
‘Charity flows downward from those with power to those deemed "deserving", and on the terms of the giver. Mutual aid flows betweeninstead, it is horizontal and rooted in a recognition that your survival and mine are bound together. When I support you, I am also building the kind of world I want to live in.’

It's been a while since I posted here. Today is the official opening of my #website art-noah-s.eu/index.php
You have a chance to randomly find #stickers when you browse and if you're signed in they're saved in your #sticker #gallery. I recently found out about #webrevival and joined the #indieweb

I was following James’ Search engine shortcuts in Firefox which was very helpful, though I was not seeing this part of step 5 in Firefox on Windows:
“Click the icon of the site in the ‘This time, search with:’ bar. If you haven’t already added the site as a search engine, a small green + icon should appear indicating you can add the site as a search engine.”
I knew that indieweb.org advertised OpenSearch, so I thought there should be a way the browser picks up on that. I found that right-clicking in the address bar gave me the option Add “IndieWeb (en)”.

That worked and the search now shows up under Settings > Search Shortcuts. However, it appears that the edit option is disabled, which seems like it might be a bug. That prevents me from adding a search shortcut like @iw unless I manually add the search engine.

It has become so sad and depressing to me to see that the #indieweb and #smallweb has become more and more ultra #rightwing now many if not most webrings are full of ultra nationalists who started using Linux and the #fediverse because, in their own words "microsoft and social media are goyslop soy develepments" and, apparently, this is the opposite? I want to know what goes on their minds (if they know) about how important #jewish people were for early unix culture.
