Stan_he_him neocities is def the best on that list
#
Stan_he_him although micro.blog sounds sorta interesting
#
Stan_he_him I personally use indieweb to get away from soc media rot

#
gRegor m.b is pretty unique from a lot of social media, pretty good culture over there, no algorithmic feeds, likes, reposts (at least I think the last two are still accurate)
#
gRegor I use it as another destination for some of my posts, it's nice that I can plug a feed file from my site into it, then posts go in there and people can reply over there.
#
gRegor And I can get (most) of those replies to come back to my site via some indieweb plumbing (but that gets into #indieweb-dev territory :)

paperbritt I've spent a while trying think of a good way to implement an indieweb shops network. I only got as far as webring but others have been pondering the idea and it looks like it's starting strong: https://conjured.ink/

Loqi hey paperbritt, it looks like this conversation is getting pretty technical (implement), can you take it to #indieweb-dev?

#
[tantek] What is Blaugust?
#
Loqi A challenge on the indieweb can either mean a blogging challenge, a list of questions to answer or a topic to write about in a post, sometimes tagged/invited by others to do so, or an ongoing event-like post which invites people to post achievements towards a goal for a specific time period, like exercise or posting photos at some frequency (daily), also supported by silos like Strava and micro.blog https://indieweb.org/Blaugust
#
[tantek] Ooh need to fix that
#
pre1ude0 Hello! I'm doing a research paper about the indie web and the different phenomenona of it (made a webring of my own for the practical part) and was wondering, if there are any specifics I should outline in my theoretical paper, that I may have missed
#
[tantek] Hello pre1ude0! There are many specifics which you can browse and discover on our site http://indieweb.org depending on how far down the rabbit hole you wish to go!
#
[tantek] What are principles?
#
Loqi 🗽 The IndieWeb Community is largely based on principles that we practice and aspire to, such as own your data and remember to have fun! https://indieweb.org/Principles
#
[tantek] ^ that's a good starting point for a theoretical paper

pre1ude0 I'll bookmark those for later then in that case. Appreciate the help!

#
[tantek] pre1ude0, welcome and let us know how it goes! One tip, if you ever see something mentioned here in chat or elsewhere and want to learn more about it, ask "what is ..." where "..." is the thing you want to learn about. E.g.
#
[tantek] What is POSSE?
#
Loqi POSSE is an abbreviation for Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere, the practice of posting content on your own site first, then publishing copies or sharing links to third parties (like social media silos) with original post links to provide viewers a path to directly interacting with your content https://indieweb.org/POSSE

#
[benatwork] (FWIW weeknights are easier for me but I’ll block off first Sunday now!)
#
[benatwork] (Also uh the next first Sunday is Labor Day weekend so I assume the next weekend after that?)
#
[Zephyr] Ooh nice catch!! Yeah I should be able to get Steve (iffy's owner) to move it, they just started doing Sunday workshops so it should be open
#
[Zephyr] I'll let you know when it gets moved to but probably the following sunday
