I made it. I will host it. I used all-new language I hope might be inviting to newcomers. A proofread would be welcome. https://events.indieweb.org/2025/08/homebrew-website-club-eastern-c3N93hNdSNx3

artlung++ ship it
#
capjamesg
[artlung] One note: "We talk about POSSE and PESOS and Webmentions and Micropub and all the related technologies." may be discouraging to someone who is less familiar with those topics / is more interested in generally making websites.

[artlung]
Is there a way to split the difference? Can I somehow keep that and add something that backs off of that?
#
[artlung]
_Don't let complicated tech talk in that sentence deter you--if you are interested in making websites--this meeting is likely to help you get there no matter your skill or experience level_
#
[schmarty]
maybe "We talk about" could be an enticement like "Explore and discuss"
#
[artlung]
https://etherpad.indieweb.org/p/eastern_language okay, opening an etherpad for this while I have you two. 15 minutes collaborative writing, if you can
#
capjamesg
"Don't let complicated tech talk in that sentence deter you" implies there may be complicated tech talk.

capjamesg++ indeed. It's the framing problem. "Don't think of a scary monsters" makes you think of scary monsters
#
capjamesg
[tantek] Now I'm thinking of scary monsters.
#
[schmarty]
now i'm thinking of nice sprites
#
[artlung]
i'm thinking of super creeps that keep me running. running scared. 🎵
#
[artlung]
okay, 15 minutes up
#
[artlung]
I think we're good. Helpful. Thank you capjamesg[d]++
