Scripting News: The web lives in WordPress and Mastodon

I agree with everything that Dave Winer says here, except the part about WordPress not knowing what they have – I think they actually do. Anyway, let the dawning of the day where we take back control of our writing begin!

Scripting News: The web lives in WordPress and Mastodon

Like I said the other day, I doubt if Automattic knows what they have. I seriously doubt it. But in a few years, we’re going to look back on this as the moment when Twitter stopped controlling our writing, as they have since 2006.

Micro.blog

If only I had a blog to remember what I blogged. Oh, right. I do.

This is another shout-out (of many) to Micro.blog, a “unique platform that combines blog hosting with a social media-style timeline and community.” As I wrote previously, I have been working on my workflow for cross posting to different sites.

Since this is a “micro post”, I’ll for now just express my most genuine thanks to Micro.blog (specifically Manton Reece), for providing the help with the last piece of my puzzle – to cross post to all my desirable social media accounts. I’m not talking about Xitter or Facebook, or even Instagram or TikTok, but the social media that has a Fediverse hook.

Again a post with more details about the WORKFLOW is brewing, and I couldn’t be more excited about the progress that is being made in the POSSE-verse.

I’m about to hit Publish and send this post EVERYWHERE…

…For now you can read Micro.blog’s values statement below:

We believe the web is the great social network and that open standards make the web a better place. We believe in IndieWeb and fediverse standards so that you own your data and different apps can work together. We support and encourage our customers to use their own domain names for their blogs. We also encourage third-party developers who want to create apps that work with Micro.blog, and make APIs available for them to use at no charge.
