YAY! Got a few offline folk to install an RSS reader and then I hooked them up with YouTube feeds and, of course, my 2 feeds. My Mastodon feed and my main RSS feed. Everyone was stunned they didn't have to login to anything.

I suspect Google will eventually do it's best to kill the YouTube RSS feed but for now, it works well.

It, sadly, doesn't work in podcast apps but anyway...

Find all my feeds at https://sightlessscribbles.com/follow/

The RSS app they all really like is this one. https://www.currentreader.app/

I Do Not Like Voting

I have noticed a growing trend across the Indie and Small Web, algorithmic community-based voting to surface "good" blogs. Is the Indie Web beginning to experience its own voting evolution in the same vein as social media? Is the Indie Web part of an inevitable ouroboros?

“Theres levels to appreciating art” by Nithitsuki

«and I'm definitely on the lower ranks»

#blog #indieweb

Huh. I've never seen that before. In the #snac web interface, it shows up as a #WebMention.

Pity @tut isn't being developed anymore. :'(

To me the problem with #smolweb is that there's isn't a browser that applies these rules. #Dillo comes close, it also has an rdrview plugin, but you have to manually write rdrview: in front of the url in the url bar of every page to see the results.

A better solution would be a #smolweb plugin that filters the entire html page rejecting anything that doesn't pass the smolweb validator.

There seems to be no such thing as a #smolweb search engine either, although points for #wiby, #marginalia, #kagi and #mojeek

A dedicated browser wouldn't require searching for #smolweb / #smallweb / #indieweb blogs, sites, or articles. Just point this browser to any web site and if it borks, display the "errors" or ignore it with a 418 I'm a teapot error: after all it's the web sites author's responsibility to provide clean, readable web sites.


After a few days of design and config work, I've got my devlog up! So far just one main post up about colour spaces, but it feels great to have things coming together. :) blog.goo-grotto.com #indiedev #webdev #virtualpet #indieweb #solodev
