Una web acollidora pel 2026

La web acollidora és una part de la xarxa on, poc a poc, ens hem anat refugiant perquè és més segura que l’exposició pública generalitzada de les xarxes socials. La idea (original de Venkatesh Rao i explicat molt gràficament per Maggie Appleton) surt a partir de les pràctiques cada vegada més agressives de les empreses que proveeixen xarxes socials, en quant a l’ús i predació de les dades, la permissivitat de conductes agressives i no regulació del contingut (cada vegada més extrem) o la mercantilització i publicitació de tot el que sigui possible… en resum, veure la informació com un recurs a explotar i als usuaris com receptors de publicitat i compradors a bombardejar, sense gaire més complicació, ens ho venguin com ens ho venguin. Que, a més, per explicar aquesta evolució s’esmenti la teoria del bosc de la foscor, ja és prou significatiu de l’evolució de les (ja) mal anomenades xarxes socials.

"...cresce um movimento para escapar dessa dinâmica. A chamada Cozy Web, a Rede Aconchegante, é uma forma de fugir do caos digital e encontrar algo que valha a pena consumir. O conceito de Rede Aconchegante é sobre cantos da web menores, mais íntimos, que as pessoas buscam intencionalmente.

A parte mais visível disso é o ecossistema de newsletters pagas, podcasts com assinatura, fóruns de debate e grupos fechados formados por comunidades com um propósito claro, geralmente em torno de um tema ou assunto. Em vez da corrida pela performance constante das redes sociais, esses ambientes priorizam qualidade sobre quantidade, profundidade sobre viralização."

A resposta está na curadoria humana e na disposição de pagar por ela. Quem pode custear assinaturas migra para ambientes controlados, onde editores reais

#goodinternet covers a lot of different aspects of the #SmallWeb: unplugging from the corporate web, fighting #enshittification, migrating from data-harvesting corpo social media, creating your own personal website, using code and website-building as an #art form, federation, and creating websites for fun. the aim is to be approachable for beginners and enjoyable for seasoned #indieweb travelers!

🙅 you don't have to be a pro #webdev or a #coding whiz to write about all the good things happening on "this side" of the web.

📣 we want to spread the word about and share thoughts, independent web projects, services, methods, sites, meet-ups, and celebrate the non-corporate web together while making it easier for us to partake and unplug from #bigtech and unhealthy #socialmedia habits.

🔍 we're looking for 1,000- to 4,000-word articles aimed at website owners and hobbyists, any digital (and traditional) artists, #internet culture enthusiasts, #technology nerds, social media expatriates, & anyone who wants to unplug from the corporate-owned web.

🙏 please boost and help get the word out!

"it does demonstrate a hunger for freedom—freedom from the attention economy, from atomization, and the extractive logic of mainstream communication. We can imagine collectively held physical spaces reclaimed from empty retail or abandoned venues hosting esoteric local scenes, a proliferation of digital gangs in dark forests who hold secrets dear"

A really great 2021 article by Caroline Busta that feels even more relevant now

"These days, writing for humans is as intentional as it gets. It is a process of connecting and sharing ideas without the urge to optimize for keywords or engage in backlink stuffing, which is one of the most spammy activities. And yes, it is also a refusal to insult the intelligence of your potential readership by delivering them "easily digestible" content served on endless scrolling platform."

Just wanted to share a couple of things I've been enjoying lately.

www.datagubbe.se/ is the personal website of Carl, who uploads wonderful blog posts about vintage computing and other geeky things. I've been reading through them one by one and really enjoying what he has to share.

loriemerson.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/artyping.pdf is an old book from 1939 about how to create artwork on a typewriter, basically early ASCII art. It's an easy fascinating read and also includes many examples!

Thumbs Up Jan 10, 2025

One upside of #Meta abandoning moderation is that it may push people away from the wholly open “town square” / “everyone is an influencer” model of social networking into more #cozyweb self-moderated communities.

I’ve long suspected that’s a healthier approach to the internet, personally.
