On my photo collections I keep each photo as an h-entry so that each photo can have a license

Hello, everyone :)
#
enpo
Been watching Indieweb from afar for a while now. Figured it was time to interact and maybe eventually do something with my site
#
KartikPrabhu
welcome enpo
#
gRegorLove
Welcome enpo!
#
enpo
Thank you :)
#
KartikPrabhu

I did add one thing from the community so far (microformats) to my site
#
KartikPrabhu

#
enpo
Yes ^_^

I've read some pages on the wiki, and as a programmer I'm thinking "Neat! That could be done from scratch given enough time" a lot :p
#
enpo
Just have to bikeshed a plan first

I post content very seldomly, but maybe I should begin with a linkblog where I just post about interesting articles I've read. Then go from there. Maybe add some context/own text to a few articles now and then
#
enpo
That would be a "like" type, right?
#
GWG
enpo: There's bookmark and like
#
GWG
I know I've had a few conversations about that

This felt like an IndieWeb related piece if only in terms of negative space: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/31/technology/blocking-the-tech-giants.html

I like the "digital veganism" metaphor

I'm somewhere around "digital vegetarian". NoScript, no Facebook, and I explicitly log out of Google and redisable their scripts after using Hangouts.

I'm def in the 'flexi-tarian' space right now but working to get towards what Hill mentions

I managed to deactivate FB for six months this year, only activated it again because I wanted to test FB login on something — Google has been difficult to completely get away from

yeah Google is borderline a leech
#
jacky
like I can't even safely flash my phone away from it - the parasite that is Google Apps Services is like everywhere

and WiFi calling doesn't work without it >_<
