@pnwthomas
@obsolete29 This just seems to be buying a domain and hosting your own site instead of, for example, posting content on Medium or some other site. Am I missing something?

@aaronpk
↩️ yes that, plus using your website as a home for other kinds of online content as well! This tweet for example is actually first posted on my website, and the Twitter version is just a copy of it https://indieweb.org/POSSE

↩️ I guess I’m very colored by eg. the IndieWeb principles https://indieweb.org/principles and the extensible web manifesto https://extensiblewebmanifesto.org/ when it comes to standardization work Eg: “Allow web developers and browser-initiated libraries to take the lead in costly explorations.”

The "subdomain" page lists "reduced cost and admin effort" as an advantage for both subdomains and paths (which is described as an alternative). Should that be explained further and if so, how would it be best to go about it?

#
[chrisaldrich]
I'm waiting on the pending holidays before looking through everything again.
#
[chrisaldrich]
ethanyoo, you can always start a brainstorming section at the bottom of the page to collect thoughts you may have.
#
[chrisaldrich]
what is a subdomain?
#
Loqi
A subdomain typically refers to a domain with one more "name(dot)" component than that which someone actually has registered which is often seen indieweb sites with a family name domain like joel(dot)franusic(dot)com, or often on silos like matt(dot)wordpress(dot)com https://indieweb.org/subdomain
#
Loqi
ok, I added "http://no-www.org/" to the "See Also" section of /subdomain https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=73947&oldid=64051
#
petermolnar
hmmm let's make a site where each page points to a subdomain, like welcome.to.my.homepage.at.petermolnar.net

jeremycherfas: I'm envisioning a headless cms built on digitalocean using their DNS api, putting up a dns record for each page, but it's still only a thought experiment ;)
