After a number of conversations back and forth over the last few months with @samkeeper I finally decided I would springboard off her previous writing and expand a bit on what RSS can do for you!

I think my #Indiekit fork might be one of the very few setups where this happens: You post from Phanpy or Moshidon — regular Mastodon clients, no Micropub support at all. My custom Fedify AP answers the Mastodon client API, turns that request into a Micropub post, writes it to my own site as Mark…

I think my #Indiekit fork might be one of the very few setups where this happens:

You post from Phanpy or Moshidon — regular Mastodon clients, no Micropub support at all.

My custom Fedify AP answers the Mastodon client API, turns that request into a Micropub post, writes it to my own site as Markdown, and then federates it as #ActivityPub.

My blog via that same plug-in answers the Mastodon API.

So Phanpy and Moshidon think they’re talking to a Mastodon server.

They’re not. They’re writing Micropub.

The flow is : Mastodon client → Mastodon-compatible API → Micropub → Markdown file on my own site → ActivityStreams 2.0 → delivered to followers.

Same for edits: editing from Phanpy issues a Micropub replace, then broadcasts an Update(Note).

Plenty of projects do “native post → AP representation” (WordPress, Micro.blog).

What I haven’t seen elsewhere is the extra hop: a non-Micropub client producing a Micropub post without knowing it.

It’s been a fun coding summer 🌞😎

Domain in peril

I’ve been updating the whole website to a new layout page by page!! This layout is a little better for viewing on mobile. I wanted it to be at least mildly navigable on mobile lol #indieweb
The indieweb concept POSSE (Post on your Own Site Syndicate Elsewhere) comes to mind. Also provide Atom/RSS feeds! They let people follow updates on your website without needing an account or such. A lot of CMS and SSG software will generate them for you too.

There's a good reason why I rarely visit websites I follow via RSS, and, instead, choose to read in my RSS reader. While the rest of the #IndieWeb are today saying RSS readers are flawed because they strip out the amazing web design by default, I am here to protest and say, actually, every RSS app that does this is doing you and I a massive favor.

Your web design is certainly not worth putting up with if I dislike it the first time.

If I wanted to appreciate your web design, I wouldn't use an RSS reader.

My before morning tea snark.

Given this recent discourse, before long, the IndieWeb will turn around and say 'actually, ads are part of the human web!'

I need tea before I snark myself into an IRC chat room. :)

How I share links on my blog

Someone emailed me about my link sharing workflow so I thought I'd just document it for everyone to see.

Just moved away from clourflare tunnels to hosting my website back on 1984.hosting. I use Anubis to block ai scrappers and have setup a tor hidden service as a backup.

You can get to it at the normal domain: godfrey.online
And the Tor address: rengrm2kdmv3mwxkvizyupyo3bcol3fhe7dqzydttpgnom6c3yni43id.onion

NOTE: Floatplane and MeansTV RSS should still work and are excluded from Anubis.

Because it supposedly affects the exposure of an "influencer" if they have non-interacting and no activity followers (which Instagram constatly debunked but these "influencers" won't listen).

Keep posting, that's how #blogging and #SNS / #SocialMedia was. That's why I want #Webmention implemented.
