Zegnat What is now?
#
Loqi A now page is a page on a personal website that tells you what a person is focused on at the current time, day, or very recently https://indieweb.org/now
#
dibblethewrecker I've had my "IndieWeb" site up and running for a few years but I'm still a bit confused about "accounts" when it comes to accessing other people's content
#
dibblethewrecker I have IndieAuth up-and-running, and my site can be followed via ActivityPub from a client like Mastodon. But if I want to follow other ActivityPub "feeds", I still need to use a client, like Mastodon, and if I don't want to run my own instance, I still need an account (on like mastodon.social), right?

[tantek] dibblethewrecker++ sounds like a good setup! Sounds like there are some interesting technical challenges that you're finding with those protocols, might be more folks who can help in the #indieweb-dev channel. And welcome!

[tantek] This is a sad last post of a small independent website closing down due to search engine use of "AI" to provide answers and not wanting to make any more content to be abused by AI crawlers & indexers: https://www.holland-cycling.com/blog/321-holland-cycling-com-stops-in-2026
#
[tantek] Wonder if anyone in the IndieWeb community in Holland knows these folks? [tonz] maybe?

capjamesg > But if these new ‘crackdowns’ are managed by poorly trained bots who cannot even distinguish my voice from one platform to another, and are working to punish the people doing the good thing and platform the people doing the bad thing, I see less and less reason to be there.

#
[Murray] ^ there are a few levels of irony here, not least of all is a call to arms to move people off one platform that is beginning to tighten the allowed content onto _another_ platform that has a history of following similar trends...
