[dave] I’ve only ever been to HWC once because every interaction with you indie web sickos is “my website this” and “my website that”, it’s almost like the W in HWC is for website

arekenaten Well, it took a while for me to be comfortable with my networking setup and trolling articles to try to make sure nginx wasn't going to let people run around on my server. But it's a start 🙂 https://cosenc.com/

arekenaten Now I get to run the gamut of the indeweb articles I suppose 😅

carrvo [dave] the W in HWC *is* for website...unless you are trying to be sarcastic in a confusing way?
#
carrvo What is HWC?
#
Loqi Homebrew Website Club is a growing world-wide network of meetups for everyone who wants to take back their web experience from social media silos, and own their online identities & content, or just want support with blogging! https://indieweb.org/HWC

pfych Anybody interested in running one in Sydney Australia? I’d love to attend one but I’m busy with full time work so couldn’t really host one myself 😵‍💫

#
[artlung] pfych depending on the time of day I'm sure there's someone across the time zones who can assist with hosting. https://events.indieweb.org/archive I believe it was capjamesg[d] who created some "Global" editions last year to try to serve Oceana
#
[dave] carrvo that’s disappointing to hear, as I mentioned earlier I quite favor the zero-website approach due to its sustainability
#
[dave] But I appreciate you enlightening me nonetheless. carrvo++

artlung zachary_kai[d] and pfych I've added a note to https://indieweb.org/Homebrew_Website_Club#Oceania_time about potential for an Oceania convenient HWC. I think also capjamesg[d] was trying for that with his "Global" events last year.

#
artlung My general advice would be to make a time you want this to happen and commit to hold it and folks in here or in meta or in events can commit to start the Zoom when you need it. I have had some moderate success promoting FrESH on Bluesky and Mastodon and blogging about it. I bet there are folks out there interested. Holler if you need help or guidance or have questions.

capjamesg[d] Yes! We hosted a global / Europe mornings HWC for a few weeks last year.
#
capjamesg[d] I would try to attend if there was an Oceania one.

[mike579] I feel like I've seen a service where you can paste in an x/twitter link to get a non-x link in order to reduce traffic to it but I can't remember what it was called now ... anyone know what I'm talking about?
#
Zegnat https://nitter.net/ maybe?
#
[mike579] Yes!! Thank you
