simoneti hello from argentina! is there a hub for blogs? i'd like to do some blog-zapping

Loqi Discovery is a variety of methods for finding content, websites, communities, or people to follow on the web including search, directories, recommendation engines, tags, or other serendipitous methods; there are also discovery-algorithms for developers https://indieweb.org/discovery
# 
[artlung] I bet the links down https://indieweb.org/discovery will be great for you simoneti
# simoneti thank youuu
# simoneti i'm also taking suggestions for rss readers for linux!
# simoneti tantek i did, amazing feature
# [artlung] https://indieweb.org/feed_reader may help with feed readers - though how complete it is for linux I don't know. I read my feeds primarily in FreshRSS (or in iOS app NetNewsWire which integrates with FreshRSS)
# simoneti you really have an entry for everything, huh :)
# [artlung] that's the goal simoneti! and the http://indieweb.org wiki is made and mantained by us all

# Loqi A feed reader (sometimes called an RSS reader) is an application (local or on the web) subscribes to feeds (often limited to Atom or RSS) and presents posts from them in an interface for reading, typically without any way to respond, in contrast to an interactive social reader https://indieweb.org/feed_reader

# [morgan] A number of people have indicated interest in zines or a zine themed event such as a popup ( for reference, https://indieweb.org/zine . I really want to encourage anyone else with an affinity for such an idea to share their interest, so I can resolve to plan an event with some confidence 😄.
# [morgan] My basic thought was like an hour long event with a few 10 minute talks and interactive presentation on zines, and then some time to make your own
# [morgan] I just realized this may have been better for #indieweb-events 👈 Check it out for further discussion

# glacier I read this article by James today about Dopplr colours https://jamesg.blog/2026/02/24/dopplr-colours/ It makes reference to the Indieweb events page where the chart and names are colour coded using a similar kind of system. I just wanted to point out there's a problem with the cyan colour in terms of accessibility. It's very low contrast <3:1, so some people might have difficulty reading it. A work around: add a black border-bottom to the chart boxes in
# glacier addition to the colours and maybe have a decorative colour next to the name using ::before or something else and have the location name in black

# Loqi The 1990s was a decade that saw the invention and growth of the web, dominated by independent websites, as well as nascent silos like Geocities, with a particular brightly colored and often translucent design aesthetic that would come to define the era along with under construction graphics, dancing animals, site counters, ornate backgrounds, and guest books https://indieweb.org/90s

[KevinMarks] This is where OKLCH can help as you can bound off the bits which will be too light on white more easily

# [artlung] Curious to know if my experimental timeline, which uses colors from a different source (edit page for link) fares accessibility-wise. https://indieweb.org/User:Artlung.com/indiewebcamps-timeline-experimental
