what is getting started?
#
Loqi
Get started on the indieweb by connecting with the indiewebcamp community, getting a personal domain, a place for your content, and setting up your home page and other indieweb essentials https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started
#
[schmarty]

[indienews] New post: "Haven is now available on PikaPods" https://havenweb.org/2022/08/10/pikapods.html

^ thought it looks like an advertisement, their home page does say: "Self-host a private blog instead of using Facebook"
#
[tantek]
what is Haven
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Haven" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Haven is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
also an interesting focus on private-by-default, which is something we've talked about here too
#
[schmarty]
same same. seems relevant if not normally active here.
#
[aciccarello]
Lack of private content is currently a downside of my free netlify hosting. They do have a paid option for authenticated access but I'm not sure how flexible that is.

I still think that use of "private" is incorrect/misleading. friends-only is different from "private"
#
[schmarty]
possibly a discussion for -meta, there, but whatever names we use for non-public posts that we want certain people to see, i feel like we need more good examples of how to do them IndieWeb-style.
#

otoh "private party" is a pretty established friends-only use of "private"

and a door with ‘private’ on it in some store is probably still used by the whole family who might live there

I was working on some stuff and when it is indieweb related I like to have an eye at the Indieweb chat ;)
#
[snarfed]
I ended up on a call with Matt (Haven founder) a couple months ago. He was very interested in IndieWeb, but also fully focused on non-public, which is still more experimental for us
#
[snarfed]
I encouraged him to look into selfauth, ticketauth, etc
#
[snarfed]
I also encouraged him to to look at DNS registrar APIs like [manton] has done w/micro.blog to streamline people getting their own domains

How is that indienews?
#
gRegor
Maybe Hugo theme is automatically adding it? It's a hidden category on the page.
#
gRegor
Maybe not, other posts don't seem to have it
