@actualham I agree and our onboarding getting easier everyday. Anyone can start with @mocrodotblog today, use a CMS like WordPress, or for those inclined build a CMS. But probably very few in #IndieWeb community who didn't start on some commercial silo first
I have used engineering better teachers as my tagline for ten years but hate term learning engineers. I meant it more of a break from the medicine and economic model that carries so much positivist cruft and more into cycles of constant iteration.
I do miss the days of one button installs of @withknown on @recliamhosting now takes bit more knowledge (and time) to deploy. @microdotblog works out of box but my students in too precarious of financial spot to guarantee they make monthly micropayments.
Making progress in my testing of @getkirby I have added micformats to my notes template, up next is to make second notes template for reply posts, in the best of world it would be an optional input field in the same template but I don't have the PHP chops
@ambrwlsn90 No I need to get better at it want to model it on your site. I do track some on: https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/pages/100daysofindieweb and others on #IndoeWeb wiki https://indieweb.org/User:Jgregorymcverry.com if you ever want help with anything a lot of people available in chat all the time

It might have been movable type or live journal...and now two decades later folks building amazing #IndieWeb building blocks... HTML always been great way to embed people on to the web. For teachers critical to teach way we read, write, and participate online.
@actualham for my grad #edtech classes students buy a shared hosting plan on @reclaimhosting and then we use themes that can take advantage of #IndieWeb building blocks. I figure more justified in this expense than my undergrads in an intro to #edtech class
@ambrwlsn90 I really dig your font choices and typography choices overall, so pleasant to read, the h-entry on the blog posts is nice as well, and makes me want to get better at tracking my websites roadmap,
Last time I taught #edu 106: New Literacies: Digital Text and Tools for Lifetime learning I threw out my syllabus. Instead of chugging through a set of modules we divided the class in half.

@vuildco Instagram doesn't allow POSSE anyways only a back feed to scrape and regain ownership of posts. I never look at crypto,... Everything is political... Thus empower the user to choose how to share while maintaining ownership.
