Today is the five year anniversary of installing WithKnown here. We’ve had our ups and downs, and it has been generally positive. Not sure about the future though, I must be honest.

@C2ooth Interesting post, and much of what you are looking for already exists within the IndieWeb community. HTTPS://indieweb.org as you perhaps know. Moreover, we are not all disenchanted tech utopians
@mer_matthews You can get turnkey Indieweb at micro.blog for $5 a month. The bigger question is, what has payment to do with it? Not everybody who publishes online is looking for payment. Maybe some dislike being sharecroppers for the silos. Not the same as wanting to be paid.
@mer_matthews I’m not competent to judge everything you have said, but I do know that it certainly does not cost $25 a month to have a site that makes use of IndieWeb principles and building blocks. Do you have specific examples in mind?
Making tentative steps towards implementing an IndieWeb social reader and so reading up what other people have done and how they are using these ideas.
Hey @marcoarment Has something changed in Overcast back end? I am getting errors like `file_get_contents(): Failed to enable crypto` from my all data XML file. Maybe part of that root certificate thing, which I confess I do not fully understand. #indieweb
@raymondcamden Are you actually displaying the webmentions anywhere? I looked at your site and couldn't see any, so it is hard to know how to proceed. You might get more help at https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2021-02-13#bottom
@OwenAdamsYT1 If you are talking about the list at https://indieweb.org/site-deaths, it does specifically refer to "content hosting sites" not the individual sites I think you are lamenting. No-one could keep track of all of those, although there is archive.org in a pinch.
Here's hoping this sensible person soon becomes active in IndieWeb things.
