I've been self hosting #Matomo for several years now, and haven't found it too much work, as I've got a really hacky database backup script and otherwise it handles things well - I'd recommend giving it a go again!

I know we've talked about it in the past, but how do you feel about possibly setting up a #HomebrewWebsiteClub in Lincoln? I've found there's very little organisation required for mine in Notts - generally just turn up and do stuff 🤓

If you want to build / enhance your personal website, #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham is a great place to get involved, next one is the February 5th https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-8IgcYeAQhIKX

Awesome to see the first event posted! In case you've not seen Aaron's post there's now a new IndieWeb events site https://events.indieweb.org/ you're more than welcome to still publish the event on eventbrite but would you also be able to publish to there as well, for IndieWeb folks to discover the event, too? Much appreciated!

Agree that some users won't want to get stuck into it - they're likely also the users who won't be writing raw HTML for their sites.

So what we're doing for them is getting Microformats2 support directly into the themes for WordPress, Jekyll, Hugo, etc, so anyone using it can benefit without necessarily doing any work!

As shared in a separate comment in the thread, there's the Microformats2 specification (see https://microformats.io) which reduces duplication seen with some of the other Semantic Web formats.

You can see an example of a parsing result at http://php.microformats.io/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jvt.me%2Fmf2%2F2020%2F01%2F2mylg%2F which produces a standardised structure for the resulting JSON, which makes interconnectivity much simpler.

Us folks in the IndieWeb (https://indieweb.org) have been using it for some time with great benefit, but it's always great to hear others reactions too!
