Good thread on “leadership” especially in creative endeavors: https://twitter.com/mipsytipsy/status/1211518125801381888

@mipsytipsy
I finally read "turn this ship around" over the weekend, and it reinforced my convictions on how wretchedly disempowering and authoritarian most workplaces are. 😕 And how many people internalize this until it curdles into learned helplessness, a jail cell of their own making. https://twitter.com/kimchiverse/status/1209091064004517889

↩️ There's actually ways to combine both but I'm not the best person for this. Maybe someone at the #indieweb can help point in the correct direction?

↩️ “IndieWeb” is different to having a peer to peer system that bridges to the web and uses it as an untrusted, always node. IndieWeb isn’t fundamentally incompatible with or a radical departure from the centralised web. Small Tech is.

@aral
↩️ Of course, IndieWeb != “indie web” – which is what you wrote. But I just don’t want anyone confusing it with Small Tech especially after how we were mocked and ridiculed by those folks when we started out with http://Ind.ie.

Wow active day on the Twitters IndieWeb mentions
#
[tantek]
Good day to post about accomplishing your 2020-01-01 goals (if you had some), or make and ship something quick! (And encourages others to start their own IndieWeb site today!)
#

What is Small Tech?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Small Tech" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Small Tech is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
Is it some odd variant (or ripoff?) of Calm Technology?
#
[tantek]
And aside: is it worth responding to a privileged white male playing the victim card to gain sympathy?
#
[tantek]
More important: is it worth responding to this with a cogent criticism of Medium, or can we just link /Medium#Criticism? https://twitter.com/holden/status/1212430522523115521
#
@holden
So I donate and subscribe to few news publications already, but am thinking of spending $50 on Medium this year too. Anyone want to talk me in or out of that?

post editing mode engaged! I want to have this blog post publish-ready tomorrow, but may post today if I'm feeling it. An introduction for the Indieweb for WordPress folks.

@vincentlistens
It started with me considering what to share about my 2019 year in review and how much personal info to share. It is now a full blown existential crisis if I want to continue on the #indieweb path. https://vincentp.me/notes/2020/01/02/09-08/

@ChuckWendig
Another smaller resolution for 2020: BRING BACK BLOGS. You don't own your social media and it can all go away in a heartbeat or be weaponized against you -- blogs are great! Yay blogs! More blogs! Maybe even from me!

@ChuckWendig Caveat: if you're using blogger, WordPress, tumblr, wix, or any other "free" platform to blog you're STILL using someone else's domain, software, bandwidth, etc. and your words can disappear just as quickly when they go under/get bought/change the TOS. (Geocities anyone?) 1/2

↩️ #indieweb is a group all about reclaiming your content. They've inspired me to start sticking things on mine, tho' I wish there were a simpler path -- I'm relearning all kinds of coding. At work, pages are set up for departments and we can change basic content, add+
