class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Several key #<span class="p-category auto-tag">IndieWeb</span> POSSE practices explained:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>First, post on your own site:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> “In a POSSE world, everybody owns a domain name, and everybody has a blog. (… a place on the internet where you post your stuff and others consume it.)”<br class="auto-break"/> <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Second, syndicate elsewhere, appropriately for each destination:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> “Then, your long blog post might be broken into chunks and posted as a thread on X and Mastodon and Threads. The whole thing might go to your Medium page and your Tumblr and your LinkedIn profile, too. If you post a photo, it might go straight to Instagram, and a vertical video would whoosh straight to TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Your post appears natively on all of those platforms,”<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>You can use Bridgy Publish (<a class="auto-link" href="https://brid.gy/">https://brid.gy/</a>) to POSSE to many destinations, and Bridgy Fed (<a class="auto-link" href="https://fed.brid.gy/">https://fed.brid.gy/</a>) to #<span class="p-category auto-tag">federate</span> to #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Mastodon</span> and other #<span class="p-category auto-tag">fediverse</span> destinations, directly from your site instead of posting a copy on yet another account on yet another server.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Third, and this is a key piece that distinguishes proper POSSE setups, with original post perma(short)links back to your posts on your domain:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> “typically with some kind of link back to your blog.”<br class="auto-break"/> <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>All copies link to (your) home.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> "And your blog becomes the hub for everything, your main home on the internet."<br class="auto-break"/> <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>You have power over your domain (name), not outside silos.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>David embedded a screenshot of one of my posts, a reply post:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><a class="auto-link figure" href="https://tantek.com/2023/253/t2/"><img class="auto-embed" alt="screenshot of Tantek replying to a tweet by Zeldman." src="https://duet-cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/0x0:1758x1046/1920x1142/filters:focal(879x523:880x524):format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25024444/CleanShot_2023_10_23_at_09.36.40_2x.png"/></a><br class="auto-break"/>in which I posted a reply *on my own site*<a id="t5TZ1_ref-1" href="#t5TZ1_note-1">¹</a> to <a class="auto-link" href="https://Zeldman.com">@Zeldman.com</a>’s tweet (itself a reply to a POSSE copy of one of my posts), and POSSEd my reply to Twitter so it would thread with his reply.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>This illustrates another important detail of a proper POSSE setup:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Fourth, post *replies* and other responses from your own site, whether to other IndieWeb sites, or to others’s silo posts (tweets etc.).<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Own your data means owning your replies as well.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>David also noted several challenges and good questions about POSSE. Some of these have answers & established practices, others are areas of exploration. E.g.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> "The first is the social side of social media: what do you do with all the likes, replies, comments, and everything else that comes with your posts?"<br class="auto-break"/> <br class="auto-break"/>The short answer is #<span class="p-category auto-tag">backfeed:</span> <a class="auto-link" href="https://indieweb.org/backfeed">https://indieweb.org/backfeed</a><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Backfeed is a concept I first wrote about as “reverse syndication”<a id="t5TZ1_ref-2" href="#t5TZ1_note-2">²</a>. <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>As you syndicate your posts out to #<span class="p-category auto-tag">socialMedia</span> silos, you reverse syndicate any responses there back to your original post. <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Your site can do this with a service like #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Bridgy</span>, which uses the #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Webmention</span> standard to forward such silo responses back to your site, and #<span class="p-category auto-tag">BridgyFed</span> which does same for responses from Mastodon to your #<span class="p-category auto-tag">federated</span> posts.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>David asked many other questions, which are deserving of their own posts to help answer, so I’ll leave you with just one more:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/> "The most immediate question, though, is simply how to build a POSSE system that works."<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>The short answer is: just start<a id="t5TZ1_ref-3" href="#t5TZ1_note-3">³</a>.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Even if you have to do it manually (until it hurts), even if you have to edit your posts on a static GitHub site (behind your domain name of course), and then copy & paste to your silo(s) of choice, just start.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>By practicing POSSE, even manually, you will learn what aspects of POSSE & backfeed matter the most to you, what aspects actually involve reaching & responding to friends and others you care about. <br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>By doing so you will naturally focus on setting up & making what you need, and you too can join the future of web publishing, today.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Questions?

<content type="xhtml" xml:base="https://tantek.com/" xml:space="preserve"> <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:space="preserve"> <div class="entry-content e-content"><p><a class="h-card" href="https://werd.io/">Ben Werdmuller</a> recently published an inspiring and thought-provoking blog post: “<a href="https://werd.io/2023/subscribing-to-the-blogs-of-people-i-follow-on-mastodon">Subscribing to the blogs of people I follow on Mastodon</a>”. Beyond the insights and excellent developer how-to in his post, I believe it points to something larger: a fundamental thoughtfulness difference between writing rapid short-form posts (whether tweets or toots) and medium or longer form writing (on blogs or journals), and the impact of that difference on readers: that the act of reading more thoughtful writing nudges & reinforces a reader into a more thoughtful state of mind.</p><p>If you have not read <a class="h-card" href="https://powazek.com/">Derek Powazek</a>’s watershed blog post “<a href="https://powazek.com/posts/3368">The Argument Machine</a>”, I highly recommend you do so. In the nearly ten years since his post, Derek’s hypothesis of Twitter’s user interface design being the ultimate machine to create & amplify disputes has been repeatedly demonstrated.</p><p>Derek’s post predated Mastodon’s release by nearly three years. Ironically, by replicating much of Twitter’s user experience, Mastodon has in many ways also replicated its Argument Machine effects, except distributed across more servers.</p><p>I’ve witnessed numerous otherwise rational, well-intentioned individuals write reactive posts on Mastodon, exactly what the Twitter-like interface encourages. Quick emotional responses rather than slower, more thoughtful posts and replies. </p><p>I’ve seen the artificial urgency of tweets & toots bleed over into emotional essays on public mailing lists. New participants join a list and immediately make entitled demands. Fearful bordering on paranoid assumptions are used to state assertions of “facts” without citations. Arguments are made that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_emotion">appeal to emotion</a> (<i>argumentum ad passiones</i>) rather than reasoning from principles and shared values.</p><p>Implicit in Ben’s post, “Subscribing to the <em>blogs</em> of <em>people</em>” (<em>emphasis</em> mine), is a preference for reading longer form writing, published on a site a human owns & identifies with (a la <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/indieweb">#<span class="p-category">indieweb</span></a>), neither silo nor <a href="https://tantek.com/2023/022/t2/own-your-notes-domain-migration">someone else’s garage</a>.</p><p>The combination of taking more time (as longer form writing encourages) and publishing on a domain associated with your name, your identity, enables & incentivizes more thoughtful writing. More thoughtful writing elevates the reader to a more thoughtful state of mind.</p> <p>There is also a self-care aspect to this kind of deliberate shift. Ben wrote that he found himself “craving more nuance and depth” among “quick, in-the-now status updates”. I believe this points to a scarcity of thoughtfulness in such short form writings. Spending more time reading thoughtful posts not only alleviates such scarcity, it can also displace the artificial sense of urgency to respond when scrolling through soundbyte status updates. </p><p>When I returned from <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/w3cTPAC">#<span class="p-category">W3CTPAC</span></a>, I made a list of all the thoughts, meetings, sessions that I wanted to write-up and publish as blog posts to capture my experiences, perspectives, and insights beyond any official minutes.</p><p>Yet due to distractions such as catching up on short form posts, it took me over a week to write-up even a <a href="https://tantek.com/2023/262/b1/w3c-technical-plenary-tpac">summary of my <span class="p-category">TPAC</span> week</a>, nevermind the queue of per-topic notes I wanted to write-up. To even publish that I had to stop and cut-off reading short form posts, as well as ignoring (mostly postponing) numerous notifications.</p><p>There’s a larger connection here between <span class="p-category">thoughtful</span> <span class="p-category">reading</span>, and finding, restoring, and rebuilding the ability to focus, a key to thoughtful <span class="p-category">writing</span>. It requires not only reducing time spent on short form reading (and writing), but also reducing <span class="p-category">notifications</span>, especially push notifications. That insight led me to wade into and garden the respective IndieWeb wiki pages for <a href="https://indieweb.org/notification">notifications</a>, <a href="https://indieweb.org/push_notification">push notifications</a>, and document a new page for <a href="https://indieweb.org/notification_fatigue">notification fatigue</a>. That broader topic of what do to about notifications is worth its own blog post (or a few), and a good place to end this post.</p><p>Thanks again Ben for your blog post. May we spend more time reading & writing such thoughtful posts.</p> </div> </div> </content> <object-type xmlns="http://activitystrea.ms/spec/1.0/">article</object-type> </entry> <entry> <updated>2023-09-24T18:33:00-07:00</updated> <published>2023-09-24T18:33:00-07:00</published> <link href="https://tantek.com/2023/267/t1/summary-w3c-tpac-2023" rel="alternate" title="" type="text/html"/> <id>https://tantek.com/2023/267/t1/summary-w3c-tpac-2023</id> <title type="xhtml"> <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="if-your-feed-reader-displays-this-then-it-is-violating-the-Atom-spec-RFC-4287-section-4.2.14"/> </title> <content type="xhtml" xml:base="https://tantek.com/" xml:space="preserve"> <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:space="preserve">I recently wrote a high level summary blog post:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>W3C Technical Plenary and Advisory Committee (TPAC) Meetings 2023<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/><a class="auto-link" href="https://tantek.com/2023/262/b1/w3c-technical-plenary-tpac">https://tantek.com/2023/262/b1/w3c-technical-plenary-tpac</a><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>of my time at the #<span class="p-category auto-tag">W3C</span> (<a class="auto-link" href="https://W3.org">@W3.org</a>, <a class="auto-link" href="https://w3c.social/@w3c">@w3c@w3c.social</a>, <a class="auto-link h-cassis-username" href="https://twitter.com/W3C">@W3C</a>) #<span class="p-category auto-tag">TPAC</span> the week before.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Posting this note to explicitly #<span class="p-category auto-tag">hashtag</span> that article with topics mentioned therein:<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>#<span class="p-category auto-tag">Sevilla</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Seville</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Spain</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">WICG</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">SocialCG</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">SWICG</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Fediverse</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">SocialWeb</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">sustainability</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">IndieWeb</span> #<span class="p-category auto-tag">ActivityPub</span><br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>because I forgot to put explicit categories (p-category markup) in the article post.<br class="auto-break"/><br class="auto-break"/>Adding that markup after publishing, and then sending an ActivityPub update (via #<span class="p-category auto-tag">BridgyFed</span>) is apparently not enough for #<span class="p-category auto-tag">Mastodon</span> to notice that the Update has new tags to display and aggregate on tag pages.

There were so many specific things in specific meetings, new connections, victories, new challenges, that in addition to capturing summary notes, I'm considering writing blog posts about each meeting or session.</p><p>Nearly all of them have public minutes that document both participants, and a good portion of what was discussed. I have my own notes, and combined with recollected details of what was minuted, I have my own observations to share. I encourage everyone who participated at TPAC (whether in-person or remote) to consider either writing a summary blog post about the experience, perhaps highlighting a few things that stood out, or if there were specific technical discussions that advanced something in a positive direction, or challenges blocking progress, those are worth their own blog posts as well.</p><p class="h-event"> <a href="https://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC/2023" class="p-name u-url">TPAC week 2023</a> took place from Monday <time class="dt-start">2023-09-11</time> through Friday <time class="dt-end">2023-09-15</time>, in <span class="p-location h-adr"><span class="p-locality">Sevilla</span>, <span class="p-country-name">Spain</span></span>.</p><p>Here is a summary outline of meetings, sessions, and discussions I participated in.
