Site.js 17.8.0 released.

- Updates the version of Owncast installed with site enable --owncast to the latest (0.0.12)

Can I trouble you to help me out with something? I typically work on really low levels systems stuff, so I don't have a lot of intuitions for web technology. What would a person use JSDB for? I've been following #SmallWeb stuff but I'm just out of my element.


Just released JavaScript Database (JSDB) version 2.1.0

Added: exposes compactOnLoad and alwaysUseLineByLineLoads options to JSDB.open()

(JSDB is a zero-dependency, transparent, in-memory, streaming write-on-update JavaScript database for the Small Web that persists to a JavaScript transaction log.)

So what do y’all think about this for all the code you need for a basic POST/redirect/GET guestbook web app with Kitten?

Does it all make sense?

codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/br…

Basically, you run kitten on that directory and hit https://localhost.

(Note: Kitten is not ready for use yet. I think the core design is solid now though. You can play with it but I’m only starting to work on the developer experience now. Should be far nicer in the next few weeks.)

Just submitted my grant application for our Domain project to NLnet for their User-Operated Internet Fund.

I believe the process for public funding should itself be public so you can read the entire submission on my blog (with better formatting than the text-only original submission, a video, and pictures) and I’ll be posting future communication there also:

Right, thanks to your feedback, this is what the “hello, world” would look like in htmx versus the equiavelent of what I have now in Svelte.

But there’s one big drawback to htmx… no ES modules and thus no components. That’s a biggie.

🤔

The Small Web isn’t about going back to the days of GeoCities. It’s about going forward differently, using modern tech in a non-colonial manner.

It’s not about building clones of Twitter, YouTube, etc. There’s no way anyone can self-host a dozen different services. Instead, it’s about having a single-tenant place on the Web that you own and control without technical knowhow; a place you can add Twitter, YouTube, etc., *features* to.

I've put together a survey about the Small Internet (#gopher, #gemini, individual webpages, small community sites) and I would love your input. If you are a small internet user, please spend a few minutes and fill in your thoughts. I'm especially interested in the open response questions. This will help inform an upcoming conference talk I'll be giving at mch2022.org

Also, please boost this on fedi as much as possible and feel free to re-share on other social networks and in other communities. The more responses the better.

Really love how our Owncast site is looking (if I do say so myself) :)

Also, remember that you can set up Owncast on a VPS with the following Site.js command:

site enable --owncast

That’s it.

It’ll be up and running with automatic TSL certificates and everything. You just need to sign into the admin, change your password/stream key and maybe take a few moments to customise your site info :)

Small Is Beautiful

I’m delighted to announce that @gabek will be joining us this Thursday at 5PM Irish Time (UTC+1) to talk to us about Owncast, federation, and why we should be shipping software not code (gabekangas.com/blog/2022/06/sh…)

Mark your calendars.

Happy to help if I can. Take a look at the following when you get a minute and let me know if any of it sounds interesting.

The fediverse is federated so you can speak to anyone on any other instance. An instance of one means that you don’t have to moderate anyone else, just yourself.

Take that as a core tenet and you have the #SmallWeb (which doesn’t have to use ActivityPub but could interoperate with it if desired).

It’s not about not getting challenged. You can get challenged all you like (as anyone you haven’t blocked can reply and challenge you). And, as I said, no one is forced to listen to you either as anyone can block your account or the whole instance.

But what it does is correctly model personhood, which the “servers of many” model doesn’t.

It’s the small tech/web philosophy. Communities are made up of individuals. That’s what we model.

Only I’m not an admin. It’s an instance of one. The only person I’m administrating is me. (As it should be.)

PS. I’m the only person on my instance. It’s an instance of one.

Think you are making a reference to @aral (and by extension to @laura ) wrt #SmallTech and #SmallWeb here?
