tantek I think slack notifications work great for us (as long as you send them from slack, as you did)

Yesssss our indieweb challenge calendar is looking great with no gaps, now!! 👏

Also if folks have code / features etc. they are shipping today / tomorrow - we definitely want to add them and give them good exposure!
#
[tantek]
(just like last year, we can have multiple items per day, and good to have complementary things like a HWC *and* code/feature launches)

You know, I love to hate @Medium and cheer on the IndieWeb and so on, but their design/typography is just SO good! Look at this thing https://medium.com/s/story/the-seductive-diversion-of-solving-bias-in-artificial-intelligence-890df5e5ef53. So classy, modern, authoritative, I want to frame it!

There are WordPress, Jekyll, and Drupal themes #IndieWeb compatible that take many design cues from @Medium...but I also think , "I would write more if my blog was prettier," is a myth. (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/12uo0j)

↩️ Oh agree 100%. Still an IndieWeb devotee. It's pure jealousy. As a design-challenged dev, I wish I had the chops to come up with smth like that on my own (but not _like_ that, you know? original-but-just-as-great.) I use @gatsbyjs and hope there are more ready-to-use themes soon.

↩️ Here is where I am in my design: https://jgmac1106homepage.glitch.me/ It isn't perfect but I am not using any CSS I don't fully grok, which leads to compromises as I learn CSS Grid, can't copy and paste my way to greatness. #IndieWeb (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/1tG3HY)

But#credweb more than leaving negligent and complicit partners behind. It's about the #IndieWeb and owning your space. Fight Fake News. Give a Kid a Website. (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/2bOdhS)

↩️ Something about agentive writing. The sense of real ownership. It changes someone's relationship with data and information. You can not understand how truth is shaped online until you shape your own. #credweb #IndieWeb #literacies #DoOO #DigPed (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/26SRVW)

↩️ That's a great way to learn. I like your design! Also I like that you have tag-specific RSS feeds on your blog. I followed IndieWeb with @feedbro :)

↩️ #indieweb @kevinmarks: mastodon's h-feed is mostly nicer than the atom feed, as the atom feed has spurious titles for each note. Except the mastodon h-feed doesn't put the photos in the e-content, or mark them as u-photo.

↩️ #indieweb @kevinmarks: looks like the images are marked as enclosures in mastodon atom feeds, and don't have u-photo on them in the h-feed.
