Matt, why can't Wordpress match big social media platforms with simple, easy, reliable UX to share content with well-formatted posts? This should work as easy as FB and Twitter while looking just as good. @automattic @photomatt @indiewebcamp #WordPress #indieweb

In seiner Kolumne für @Netzpiloten schreibt @alexjacobi darüber warum wir aufpassen müssen, dass die großen Spieler den Kerngedanken und die Individualität des Podcast-Gedanken nicht zerstören. #indieweb zeigt, wie evtl. eine Co-Existenz möglich ist … https://neu-gierig.fm/blog/warum-wir-podcasts-lieben-und-das-medium-kaputt-machen

A bit of navel-gazing perhaps, but I wanted to mark the one-year anniversary of IWC London and taking my first steps with the IndieWeb. Was a fun exercise to look at how my thoughts have evolved 🙂 Might do this again next year to see how much they've changed again: https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/one-year-in-the-indieweb

“…the IndieWeb is a toolkit. A collection of ideas, technologies, and services that can help you solve some particularly tricky problems. If you're wanting to get involved in the #IndieWeb, the first question you need to ask is: what problem do I have?” https://theadhocracy.co.uk/wrote/one-year-in-the-indieweb

That is very well put, thank you.

[KevinMarks]
And we do tend to present on the protocols in public, as in a lot of ways "how do I publish a site on the Web?" is a solved problem with lots of answers
#
[KevinMarks]
Though the "how do I replace substack?" conversation seen yesterday can make it a tricky one

#
[tantek]
"Why do you want to replace substack?" is a better question
#
[KevinMarks]
the original poster wanted to replace substack because it was funding transphobes
#
[tantek]
back to the anniversary

[Cheuk] [Ana_Rodrigues] [calumryan] any thoughts on the one year anniversary of IndieWebCamp London? https://indieweb.org/2020/London — worth doing a blog post about? It was our first "in-person turned into virtual" IndieWebCamp, and I'm sure there's lots there worth reflecting on!

reviewing days worth of logs is SOOOOO much easier on the web than in Slack

If you'd like to collaborate in an Etherpad on writing about IWC London / online HWCs London, I'm happy to help with expanding prose / copy-editing if you want to jot down ideas/thoughts/outline
#
[tantek]
I'll leave that to you (or [Ana_Rodrigues] or [Cheuk]) though to start an Etherpad if that works for you 🙂

New: this is truly insane. For $16, a hacker rerouted my texts; received messages meant for me; broke into my online accounts. This isn't SIM jacking or SS7. You just pay a company in this unregulated wild west and get control of text routing in minutes https://www.vice.com/en/article/y3g8wb/hacker-got-my-texts-16-dollars-sakari-netnumber

aaronpk does the jargon matcher in Loqi ignore plurals or do we need to document e.g. both GUID and GUIDs?
#
aaronpk
it is a case insensitive exact match of the words in the list
#
[tantek]
ok both variants it is then
#
[tantek]
I've got a lot more to add then too to the existing list
#
[tantek]
here goes
#
aaronpk
i mean i _could_ add a plural check (check for the word with an extra S, but not gonna do proper pluralization rules and such)
#
[tantek]
yeah no worries
