sourceWelcome to volume thirty-four of Scrolls, a newsletter for sharing cool stuff from the IndieWeb, Fediverse & Cybersecurity realms. This week we explore the everything web, chill in the Fediverse, and let the madness (AI) consume us.
IndieWeb
I welcome you back to the open old artisanal accidental useless annoying fun weird—everything web. I guess it’s really hard to put a single name on what we’ve got here… There’s buttons though!
I’m tired of the ensloppification of the ‘net. I want a web for humans, by humans. A place where people go—to write, and to share everything they are. Here’s some humans you can go interact with right now—Adam, Seth, Juhis, Gina and Bastian.
🔥 It’s dangerous to go alone! Take these. 🔥

Fediverse
Ten years of the Fediverse and somethings never change—don’t be afraid to boop that lil’ favorite button for whatever you like, and it’s perfectly fine for Fedi to be that cozy, slow-growin’ corner of the ‘net. It’s just a good place to be. There’s more ways than ever to be part of the Fediverse too! Check out Madblog and Inkwell for example.
