what is a guiding compass
#
Loqi
guiding compass is an operative term used to describe a different and experimental format for homebrew Website club meetups that aim to incorporate a bit more structure and give more points for conversation https://indieweb.org/guiding_compass

heh did that by hand!

This seems like an ideal time to mention http://Micro.blog. Think of it as a social network built around personal blogs. Indieweb and open standards based. I’ve been an active user for years now. Find me there at the same username as here. https://micro.blog/

↩️ Eh. It’s an option, just an option with different choices, different methods of participation and different barriers to entry for good or ill. The #indieweb (of which I’m a member) is my favorite “for good” example, though one geared towards webheads. https://indieweb.org/

↩️ “UX and design is more important than protocols, formats, data models, schema etc. We focus on UX first, and then as we figure that out we build/develop/subset the absolutely simplest, easiest, and most minimal protocols & formats sufficient to support that UX.”

↩️ there's a *lot* of space between Twitter and static sites. But if you really want to go with a static site deployment model, there's lots of options for adding dynamic bits to make them work more like twitter: https://indieweb.org/static_site

The /static_site and /static_site_generator split seems somewhat confusing. I wonder if much of the SSG content should be moved to the /static_site page.

#
[aciccarello]
SSGs are a subset of static sites
#
[aciccarello]
Oh and there's static hosting

[aciccarello]
but that's a sub heading on /web_hosting

↩️ Also IndieWeb doesn't necessarily mean "a blog" or the like, and it doesn't mean having to go down the rabbit hole of supporting the various push protocols. At its core, it just means: 1. Have your own web address 2. Publish something, *anything*, to it

@fluffy
↩️ This is your regular reminder that IndieWeb principles and practices aren't just for nerds. Having your own website that you maintain (and ideally pay for yourself) gives you so much more on the web than relying on the currently-popular social media silos.

Is it hopelessly optimistic into clear laugh-cry territory that I want the indie-web ethos to carve out a future for us? @joinmastodon and @microdotblog? Yes. https://indieweb.org

↩️ Heck you could probably make an IndieWeb site made out of nothing but SVGs and PDFs. There's no specific technology requirement beyond http. And you definitely don't need Kubernetes or AWS or whatever. Get a cheap shared hosting account with e.g. @DreamHost.

#
@fluffy
↩️ Oh also there's a pretty pervasive misconception that IndieWeb means "static site generator." But that definitely isn't true! You can hand-write HTML, you can use a dynamic publishing system like WordPress or Publ, you can even use MS Word or Dreamweaver or whatever.

Anyway, I know fandom will largely move to a different platform, but I'm a big believer in the indieweb, and personally I think I'll take this as a push to go back to work on my personal fan sites.
