In the Beginning was the Website (desmondrivet.com)"Even if the entire IndieWeb consisted of a single personal website, it would still "work", in the sense that the owner of the website would be in control of their own content and would still be able to share that content with their friends"

@manton I’m still not quite sure why it wasn’t a good idea!
Two reasons:
1: The only data in the Pingback payload is two URLs. Wrapping this an an XML container that's also doing RPC is incredibly overkill for sending just two values. That's why Webmention went with form-encoded instead, like regular HTML forms, which is about the most compact way you can send two values.
2: Pingback never went far enough with the user experience of displaying them. At best, you'd see a snippet of the text near the link, which it turns out wasn't really that useful or contextual. Once social media started taking off, the interactions there became far richer than seeing the pingback excerpt, so people abandoned them. With Webmention, we're explicitly focusing on enabling the kind of rich interactions people do on social media instead. -
I've discovered that mf2py not only allows me to parse people's h-cards, but to parse my own website in unit testing to see if the renderer outputs stuff correctly. #IndieWeb has some unexpected benefits!

So beautiful to see @t present @WordCampUS on @IndieWebLife architectural components coming together to allow us to own our content, keep in touch with those we care about, and no longer be beholden to dehumanizing social platforms.

That's got me pondering about what it would take to get @t suggesting that @wordpressdotcom as the best turnkey solution for the #IndieWeb #WCUS

"This is not the web we want." @t after laying out the case against #Facebook and others that manipulate users. #WCUS #indieweb

I'm Officially Part of the IndieWeb (www.jhsheridan.com)"What makes this site different is that it also serves as a repository for other things I post in other places on the Internet. That way, if I’m kicked off of Facebook, or if Twitter shuts down, or if I just can’t stand Instagram any longer, that content doesn’t just disappear. It will always have a home here. The content is mine. I’m in control."

This might be just my personal bubble, but I have never seen such a surge in small personal (micro-) blogs and feeds. No matter if it's level 6 #indieweb'bed or classic old school web – I like it.

You know what I really ❤️ about the #Indieweb is how all documentation and communication between the enthusiasts is so well organised and perfectly made available for future reference and it all is linked up really well together. You can keep up-to-date with the latest info by simply visiting the IRC chat logs from time to time. cf. https://chat.indieweb.org/meta/2019-10-21#bottom
