@sl007 @EthanZ @DoroBaer I see. –"And I'm doing my share of work on open platforms"– off course - just did not get the "make facebook better". Do not make facebook better. Instead let's meet at https://indieweb.org/2018/Düsseldorf or https://indieweb.org/2018Portland ;) (twitter.com/_/status/976182107423768581)

@ChrisAldrich @jgkoomey @judell This is the general idea behind the #indieweb movement: https://indieweb.org For the price of registering your own domain and some hosting, you can run your own website and still interact with other websites in an open and distributed manner.

# tantek I feel this is very in the spirit of IndieWeb but not quite sure how to capture it: https://lifehacker.com/5688167/the-best-way-to-complain-is-to-make-things
# tantek (I think it's also notable enough on its own to capture in WP but that's orthogonal to here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:James_Murphy_(electronic_musician)#Notable_quote:_The_best_way_to_complain_is_to_make_things )

Loqi A creator in the context of the IndieWeb is someone who owns their domain, uses it as their primary identity on the web, creates (for example, code, design, user experience) for their site, and openly shares at least some of those creations https://indieweb.org/creator
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "scratch your own itch" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "scratch your own itch is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# Loqi Itches, in the context of the indieweb, are individuals's personal sources of annoyances using the web or in particular their own website, that they use to itemize and prioritize what to create, design, build, and improve on their own website, often by first listing such "itches" on a section in their User: page https://indieweb.org/itches
# tantek scratch your own itch is /itches#Why

gRegorLove tantek: earlier in -chat I half-joked "resisting the urge to define "user is who the indieweb fights for""

# gRegorLove /2018/Baltimore has "Hacking" but /2018 has "Making". I like the latter.
