Happy to help with this! My theme mostly adds microformats (which other themes also do, I just wanted to customise my looknfeel a bit). Majority of the IndieWeb heavy lifting comes from the IndieWeb WordPress plugins. https://indieweb.org/WordPress/Plugins

@bhaugen I’ve tried on multiple occasions and just cant work out what’s going on, how to use it, how to contribute, how to collaborate, or anything. I find the interface opaque, and it feels like it’s a read-only.
I know that whatever follows the C2 wiki has to be different and possibly more complic…

I had exactly the same experience of FedWiki. Couldn’t really figure out how/why to use it.

Reading about it (e.g. https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/a-platform-designed-for-collaboration-federated-wiki and https://commonplace.doubleloop.net/choral-explanations-and-oer-a-summary-of-thinking-to-date) helped a bit with the why. Not so much the how.

Then I played around with it again recently (thanks @vera@freethinkers.lgbt) and it suddenly clicked. Bit of a galaxy brain moment.

That said I probably still won’t use as a daily driver for now (Im wedded to my current paradigm) but can see now why I would.

@neil interesting. Can you explain why and maybe have a link to relevant literature?

I’m currently reading Towards a Liberatory Technology and that’s what prompted this thought.

It was written in the 60s, and discusses:

– alternative and renewable energy
– small, decentralised communities
– harmony and intertwining of town and country, nature and technology
– anti-capitalism
– animism

Here are the notes I’m taking – https://anagora.org/towards-a-liberatory-technology

Which are the good ones?

Also this is worth a read I believe for thinking on how PKMs may combine in to a commons of knowledge.

Anagora and FedWiki are worth a peek for the crossover of PKM into collective knowledge management.
Replied to Moving Kindle Highlights Directly to Obsidian Notes by Ton Zijlstra (zylstra.org)

Amazingly useful plugins keep getting made for Obsidian. Plugins that help reduce friction to getting my material from other sources into flat markdown files that I then can edit, rework and do with as I see fit. Earlier I mentioned the Zotero plugins to extract PDF highlights and Zotero links into …

Obsidian seems to have a really impressive ecosystem built up around it (and really quickly, too!)
