Cool. I managed to answer from my blog (https://www.webrocker.de/2022/10/28/fediverse-test/) into the fediverse - ( https://mastodon.social/@www.webrocker.de@www.webrocker.de/109245619305239330 ) and it seems that my blog kind of appears as its own fed citizen. this indieweb thing is pure voodoo!

#TwitterMigration highly encourage web devs coming over to check out IndieWeb and what folks have been building there! Mastodon might be a wonderful replacement for you, but for many other folks it might be difficult making the switch right away. Things like #MOA (1/2)

[KevinMarks] [benatwork] do we need a "How to Transition from Twitter to the IndieWeb" version of this article? (my guess is that the act of writing it would expose weakness & holes that need filling) https://p.xuv.be/how-to-transition-from-twitter-to-mastodon
#
[tantek]
or maybe just "How to transition from Twitter"
#
[tantek]
which could be expanded to other silo-specific articles that focused on the process of transfering, i.e. beyond the "How to export" sections on various silo pages
#
[tantek]
Thoughts?

what is How to transition from Twitter
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "How to transition from Twitter" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "How to transition from Twitter is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
How to transition from Twitter is an in-progress page providing a step-by-step path to switch from using Twitter to using the IndieWeb instead. {{stub}} If you'd like to collaborate on this page today, check out the Etherpad: https://etherpad.indieweb.org/How_to_transition_from_Twitter

jacky, I think that's a reasonable alternative to list, in fact I might list it side by side under an "easiest" heading along with micro.blog. I'd call indieweb.social free-ish, and link to its Patreon though to help keep it funded

I've always thought about starting a web blog for my longer form thoughts (as if the internet needs more opinions). But thanks to @kevinmarks and @indiewebcamp I have a framework to build on. Which may be relevant given Musk taking over Twitter.

Getting a spike of DH & ML/AI connections over in Mastodon (http://Indieweb.social server for me, but you can follow across servers). Allegedly Elon says he will ban accounts that mention Mastodon. In case my account goes poof. #twittermigration https://indieweb.social/web/@caffeneko
