That said, there has never been a better time to join the #IndieWeb and http://Micro.blog has made it easier than ever before. I can’t recommend it enough.

The service itself isn’t, but it’s built entirely on top of open standards like RSS, JSON Feed, Webmention, Microformats 2, Micropub, and other #IndieWeb tech. It’s the open web as it’s meant to be!

Shoutout to @indiewebcamp #indieweb from @jeckman. Smaller communities like this pushing for an open web. They need help bridging the gap w/ non-technical users. #wcpub

Says @t: “just start”. Start posting on your own site. #indieweb readers and platforms are available. I helped build one publishing platform: Known can be grabbed at https://github.com/idno/known #dwebsummit

We thought the web would be peer to peer, but we wound up being clients on a small number of servers. The #indieweb is part of the answer: use your own site as your social and identity hub instead, says @t. #dwebsummit https://indieweb.org

I’ve been really enjoying the focus on personal websites that Vi Hart and M Eifler aka blinkpopshift have been putting into their recent Patrons-only VIM LIVE streams.
In addition to some great discussion about subscribing to RSS feeds of personal sites, I have really enjoyed the homework-slash-games like “post something on your website” and “collect what you might have tweeted into a blog”.
I think there’s a lot that the IndieWeb can learn from discussions like these as folks from different backgrounds are (re-)discovering what the web can be.
You can find previous and future VIM LIVE streams by supporting blinkpopshift or Vi Hart on Patreon.

XRay, the library that I use to parse URLs to show comments, now supports parsing direct Microformats JSON, ActivityStreams 2.0, as well as finding a
rel=alternatelink and parsing data from that instead!This means I now get great results when parsing Mastodon or other ActivityPub links, and this is also the first step in what I hope will result in fixing the Microformats situation for WordPress, since a WordPress plugin will be able to generate Microformats JSON and advertise that in a
rel=alternatelink.Next up is updating Aperture to take advantage of these new features!

The #indieweb movement (which I love and support) gets marginalized by this 'only makes sense if it's a viable company' metric. Early internet was crazy, I get it (Aristotle/Gopher/Web/etc) these things are never easy. Just surprised so few WANT something more open

Kill Process was an extremely satisfying read and it’s definitely going on the will reread pile. I’m going to go work on the indiewebification of my websites now. Open and decentralized social networking is going to win. #indieweb

By golly, it's working. Here's me using Cellar Door to login to #IndieWeb's #IndieAuth page to add my implementation to the list of available implementations. ☺️ https://indieweb.org/IndieAuth#Implementations

I absolutely ❤️ the idea of the #IndieWeb. Take control of your own content! watch @adactio explain it: https://vimeo.com/265121482 https://indieweb.org

Microsub and the new reader evolution (skippy.net)"The other great thing about Microsub, the technology behind Aperture and Monocle, is the separation of “feed collection” from “feed display”. I don’t have to use only Monocle to read my feeds. On my phone, I use an app called Indigenous. I could also use Monocle from a mobile browser. Or I could use Together. Or I could write my own reader interface, if I so chose."

OAuth for the Open Web
OAuth has become the de facto standard for authorization and authentication on the web. Nearly every company with an API used by third party developers has implemented OAuth to enable people to build apps on top of it.continue reading... -
I don't completely agree with this sentiment, but it was still a fun read: https://stackingthebricks.com/how-blogs-broke-the-web/ #indieweb
