IndieWeb is a form of social media. People have a certain image of themselves, and the internet helps them live up to it. Whether we're writing comments on HN, posting toots on Mastodon, uploading videos to TikTok, or writing a post on our own blog, there’s a lot of self-expression involved.

However, for a lot of people, platforms like TikTok are more appealing than IndieWeb, but for some, it's fun to set up an OpenBSD VPS, a static web server, and learn to write better in text files using their favorite editor.

A self-determined workflow can be more important than being seen. However, one doesn't rule out the other, and the Author and IndieWeb offers some good tips.

Thanks for the post.

You remind me of the article "Nobody Cares About Quality Anymore" by Shawn Seymour where convenience is always valued. Or where people use information as a tool, without any desire or motivation to preserve it.

Thank you for your comment! It motivates me a lot.
