I link to my own tag pages. I figure that'll show reasonable results and I can always link out to Twitter/Insta hashtags there if I wanted. #indieweb -
Facebook is now so monopolistic that Zuckerberg thinks Interoperability means consolidating the different startups he bought to prevent competition #indieweb

Pushed a new release of Indigenous with the Checkin and Geocache post type. All info is passed as additional properties in the Geo URI. Oh, and I will fix the stupid spelling typo in a next release :) #indieweb

Emoji Avatars for My Website
My previous avatar was almost 3 years old, and I was getting tired of it. I decided to replace my avatar on my website for my IndieWebCamp Austin hack day project. But if you know me, you know I can't do anything the easy way. For my hack day project I made the avatar on each post in my website change depending on the emoji I use in the post!continue reading... -

Pretty pleased I managed to have this entire conversation with @lsanger on Twitter using only my own website and tools! Never had to visit Twitter or use any Twitter apps! Our #indieweb tools have come a long way! #ownyourdata
and here is my previous post pushed out to Twitter and visible on Mastodon! #indieweb #ftw #distribution

I think I’ve figured out the broad strategy for how to decentralize social media. How do we get people using new, better networks? Here’s how!

You should come check out what we're doing on the #IndieWeb, it's basically exactly this, built with many W3C standards! Here's a writeup about my current social media experience, I stopped using Twitter ages ago:

<me> why is this space so fucking toxic sometimes though
<@rhiaro> because the social web is made by antisocial peopleOMG
That's one of the reasons I appreciate the #indieweb's focus on in-person events! -

And from a consumption perspective, every RSS feed reader I’ve used on iOS/macOS/web is still a far cry from what you get at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. Once we make consumption easy, the creators will move. And RSS could continue powering the open web.
Totally agreee! We've been working on stuff like this in the #indieweb community for a while! It's getting there, still a long ways to go, but here's my current reading experience using Open Web technologies: https://aaronparecki.com/2018/04/20/46/indieweb-reader-my-new-home-on-the-internet -

@aaronpk Hey, sorry, me again. I just can't figure this out and hope you can help. I'm trying to use OwnYourGram with my site (Jekyll + Github pages + Micropub endpoint). But the post gets pulled in like this, so it doesn't show the photo. Are you aware of anyone who got this to work? It needs to add a reference to the photo in the post itself.
I'm not familiar enough with Jekyll to know what's going on. You might try asking someone in the #indieweb-dev channel in chat! https://indieweb.org/discuss
