Loqi 🌱🪴 A digital garden is a particular practice of creating & growing an online and public IndieWeb presence that focuses more on topics & relationships than a timeline like blogs, has content of different levels of development, is imperfect and often a playground for experimentation, learning, revising, iteration, and growth for diverse content, perhaps interlinked with other digital gardens https://indieweb.org/digital_garden

Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "greyscaling" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "greyscaling is ____", a sentence describing the term)

[schmarty] i find the AI relevant. particularly as i see folks choosing to make more stuff non-public to prevent it being scooped up as training data. i feel a lot of helplessness about it for my site.

Loqi An algorithm in general is a series of steps used to to automatically perform computations and other operations to produce a result; on the IndieWeb many standards have user-centric algorithms for peer to peer site interactions; social media silos have user-exploitative algorithms for advertising and reinforcing addictive behaviors https://indieweb.org/algorithm
