Great #indieweb sessions at #btconf #Berlin!
Yesterday, Sacha Judd (@sachajudd.com) reminded us to “teach someone …. something about building for the web”, and to “take back control of your feeds, your attention, and … go exploring again”. She encouraged us to “build healthy online neighborhoods”. That’s a great metaphor and very complementary to rebuilding your own home(page) on the web with perhaps a digital garden as well!
Today, Ana Rodrigues (@anarodrigu.es @ohhelloana.blog) connected the dots from Sacha’s reminders to encouraging everyone to join burgeoning healthy online neighborhoods like:
* 32-Bit Cafe (@32bit.cafe and see their Discord & Discourse)
* IndieWeb Community (@indieweb.org and see @chat.indieweb.org for Discord, IRC, Slack)
Both are filled with online neighbors helping and teaching each other how to make what people want to express on and for their personal sites!
Know of other healthy online neighborhoods? Let me know and I’ll add them to the IndieWeb communities page!
Want to connect your online home with online neighbors?
* Join the IndieWeb #webring: https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_Webring
Prefer events? Join a virtual Frontend Study Hall, Homebrew Website Club meetup, or the next #IndieWebCamp!

European friends!
🗓 I am going to Beyond Tellerand (@btconf@mastodon.social) Berlin next week 7-8 November and you should too!
BTconf is the best independent web design, development, and inspiration conference in Europe.
Everything from the speakers to the talks to the side events are a labor of love by @MarcThiele.com (@marcthiele@mastodon.social) and his crew, and it shows in the #btconf community he has gathered over the years.
If you’re in #Berlin, or can hop on a train and join us, you should.
🎟 Grab a ticket: https://btco.nf/t
And while you’re there, consider joining us at #IndieWebCamp Berlin right afterwards on 9-10 November (complimentary camp tickets at the same link), for #barcamp style discussions sessions and an #indieweb Create Day, writing, styling, designing, coding, hacking on our personal sites for a better web for ourselves and everyone else.

Your personal website can be your fediverse address², each providing seamless discovery for the other.
As web developers we should be building & developing our personal sites to exemplify the latest & greatest of such practices, including using Mastodon/ActivityPub as yet another distribution mechanism (ala POSSE) for your existing personal websites rather than a separate profile/stream.
Discussed this with @nebu@mastodon.social and @kadirtopal@mastodon.social just after the last talk @beyondtellerrand.com (@btconf@mastodon.social @btconf) yesterday, fitting conference closing thoughts complementing the heartfelt opening talk by @localghost.dev (https://sophie.omg.lol/ @sophie@social.lol)³.
