I've realised how much I've missed Home Brew Website Club. Are there any similar online meet-ups happening at the moment? #indieweb

Currently writing and testing a new Drupal project/theme which adds a reader on your site and install as a PWA on your tablet or phone. It integrates with #activitypub and #indieweb so no need anymore for an external client. Just host it all yourself!

so I'm not inventing too many things

[tantek]
A big point about building blocks, so that none of us individually has to invent too many things :)

[eddie]++ THANK YOU for that excellent addition to /outreach. Very clear explanations of when to not do what and why. I almost feel like this is the kind of topic that’s worth covering in closing sessions at IWCs.

gRegorLove: [tantek] left you a message 2 weeks, 1 day ago: I carried over your 2019 IndieWeb Gift Calendar inspirations to 2020, can you take a look and verify that they're still things you want to try to do for the calendar (or haven't otherwise already been completed)? https://indieweb.org/2020-12-indieweb-gift-calendar#Inspiration

March 2020 obviously started on March 1st :P
#

[tantek] haven't completed them. they'd still be nice to do, but I can't commit to anything
#
gRegorLove
Not sure if anything is obvious about time in 2020 XD

what is sustainability
#
Loqi
sustainability is a principle and set of practices usually about making sure that something is environmentally low or non-impactful, from technology (like green computing), to corporate and personal practices (choice of energy provider, minimizing flights) https://indieweb.org/sustainability
#
[tantek]
[calumryan] ^ that would be a better page for that addition. The "environmental impact" page is more about specific *pages* people have on their site(s) that document their own or their web site's environmental impact.
