Thinking About The Decentralized Web on the Decentralized Web
While I'm a big proponent of the decentralized web (for example, things like the Fediverse and the indie web), I also recognize the many reasons people choose the more conventional centralized choices, so I know there's a lot of work to be done if we want to truly have a free and open web for everyone.
Part of my goal with my websites is to try to think about how to improve the decentralized web to make it a more viable option to others, both from a technical perspective and a social perspective. I also want to look at the problem both from a very practical HOWTO perspective when that's possible and from a more philosophical and political perspective. I think the latter is just as important as the former, and considerably more neglected.
Sometime I hope to update my website specifically devoted to the topic, The New Old Web, some more. However, I also do post about this on my general purpose website, Unspeakablehorror's Site. While I think my contributions to this area will necessarily always be small, I hope they will be of some value.
