Love this. IndieWeb is punk:

Nobody’s waiting for permission to have a website. You don’t need a “content strategy.” You don’t need a niche. You need a place that’s yours, and the nerve to hit publish.

HWC Edinburgh - Writing session on Tue 12 August

Love that Jim Mitchell created this new IndieWeb is Punk Manifesto site, inspired by my blog post from 2025.

It feels, to me, that if Mastodon were operating the way I think matches its intent, we’d see servers functioning as like.. discord adjacent communities that also, thanks to federation, connect to the larger #fediverse. But I don’t really see that happening much. Maybe more server centric discoverability, things like channels, or topics or something, might be something that helped?

I’m both here and on BlueSky and I started posting on both around the same time and it does feel like I’ve had more emergent conversations there. It often feels here like I’m just talking to no one.

Maybe that’s because I self host my instance or maybe I’m not “doing it right” Mastodon is where I’d prefer to be for various reasons. But I’ve seen a ton of resistance from others to coming here and I don’t know how to fix it. #fediverse #indieweb

I’ve been thinking a lot today about the obstacles less tech savvy people might face toward being on the #fediverse or otherwise joining the #indieweb, and how we could address those.

I do think federated discovery is worse than on rival platforms, but this seems like it should be a solveable problem. I think there’s a perception that “more people = more of my people” which is harder to address.

I also think ATProtocol and the Fediverse end up competing over a similar audience.

It’s okay to be sensitive, and it’s also okay to fuck up (I’ve fucked up plenty worse myself) but when you’re a creator with a public-facing project like Pagecord, you need to be able to handle criticism, even when it’s unfair or aggressive. This is the Internet. Many marginalized folks face far worse harassment for simply existing.

If you’ve been to my site before—you may have noticed a bit of a change since yesterday.

Last night, I pushed a lot of features and stylistic changes to my site (over 100 commits?!) It was long overdue and I’m feeling happy I got it done (but not too happy...

I'm suspicious of all writing online now. I'm giving your new blog post or manifesto or project the side-eye. Is that AI? Are those the telltale signs of an LLM? It sure reads like it to me. Am I just seeing things? Or am I "right to push back here?" That's not very punk of you.

(This is a subtoot.)

Yo! shadenexus.ca was nice enough to make one of those 88x31 Buttons for my site. Now you can put it on your website too if you want: popufur.vip 😊💜

Hmm… that sounds like a decent #indieweb project. A little static site hosting entries on words/phrases which are also posted to the fediverse and fedithreads as the comments.

I will see if I can remember when I get back in the fall; it fits as a proof-of-concept I have been wanting to do.
