I’m starting to come around to the idea of #micropub and #indieweb in general, but discovery is so hard. Also, the prerequisite amount of technical knowledge required is sooooo high. People think Mastodon is too technical for goodness sake. That kind of built in gatekeeping rubs me the wrong way. Not that I think it’s intentional, and I know there are a lot of folks working hard on making it more approachable, but maybe that could be a focus instead of designing yet another open standard.
That’s super negative, but I’ve been enjoying tinkering with this stuff in general! Shoutout to @paulrobertlloyd , I’ve been playing with #indiekit for a few days and it’s been a blast.
