[capjamesg] what is why?
#
Loqi ❓ There are many reasons why you should use the IndieWeb, from controlling your experience on the web (instead of corporate algorithms), to deciding where and when to post your content and where it goes https://indieweb.org/why
#
[capjamesg] why post << reasons to blog: https://write-yourself-in.blogspot.com/2022/11/reasons-to-blog.html
#
Loqi ok, I added "reasons to blog: https://write-yourself-in.blogspot.com/2022/11/reasons-to-blog.html" to the "See Also" section of /why_post https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=109652&oldid=107879
