Crap. About to fly and hadn’t synced any music to Spotify offline.

If @LauraKalbag's talk is making you think about your own web presence, go look into the #IndieWeb movement. I'm still new to it because I never have time to work on my blog, but in theory it what I am aiming for! #naconf

I love hearing @LauraKalbag encourage people to avoid using Medium and instead create your own website #IndieWeb #naconf @naconf

There's some sound #indieWeb advice from @LauraKalbag here at #naconf

👉 Self host where possible
👉 Post to your own site first, then publish to third party apps
👉 Your site will be better than Medium anyway 😅

Reminds me of the quote from Teller (of Penn & Teller) – "Sometimes magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect."

The decision of something being a good technical fit and something being a sound investment is often not done by the same person, so it would be a complex obstacle.

I would much prefer support to be a progressive enhancement that can be dealt with in parallel to shipping stuff.
