raidev
is going through webrings the equivlent of doomscrolling in the indieweb
#
raidev
you just press next hoping to find something cool
#
[tantek]
nah, clicking/pressing is more intentional than scrolling
#
raidev
true, im mostly joking
#
raidev

cotsuka joined the channel
#
[tantek]

#
raidev

#
raidev

#
raidev
well the site to the right of https://frills.dev/ is down
#
[schmarty]
the webring is self-gardening, but it does things on a schedule, so sometimes it takes a while to notice if a site goes down or removes the webring lings.
#
[tantek]
what is the indieweb webring
#
Loqi
🕸💍 Indiewebring is a webring across IndieWeb sites and blogs, part of the great rebirth of of webrings powered by #IndieWeb technology that made 2018 the year of the webring https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_Webring

what is foursquare?
#
Loqi
Foursquare is a venue reviews, recommendations, and lists silo based on its previous location-based checkin support, a feature that was spunout to the separate Swarm application which still shares some data back & forth with Foursquare https://indieweb.org/Foursquare

Foursquare << there is a way to continue contributing the foursquare PoI dataset and searching it on the web by signing up to be a PlaceMaker - if you had superuser status before it's the same login https://docs.foursquare.com/data-products/docs/become-a-placemaker
#
Loqi
ok, I added "there is a way to continue contributing the foursquare PoI dataset and searching it on the web by signing up to be a PlaceMaker - if you had superuser status before it's the same login https://docs.foursquare.com/data-products/docs/become-a-placemaker" to the "See Also" section of /Foursquare https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=108432&oldid=98930

Hey folks, stoked to have found this community. I figured this channel would likely be the best place to reach out as my interest lies in off the beaten path of “dev” stuff.

My longer term ambitions are directed towards exploring the conditions to establish a kind of cultural and social commons based on LoFi principles, alongside convivial tools like Obsidian, within the community traditions of the IndieWeb and OpenSource movements.

My day job is in finance working in Data & AI governance and culture, but I’ve started writing a digital garden more squarely pointed at giving people the tools and thought space to address data sovereignty, as well as really looking at this concept through a philosophical lens.
