cophee Hey all! I’m Wing from Sydney, Australia. Would love to know if there’s an Indie Website Club branch here
#
capjamesg Welcome, cophee[d]!
#
capjamesg There isn’t an active Homebrew Website Club in Australia right now.
#
capjamesg We do have online events in the BST and EST time zones.
#
capjamesg The Pacific one (on EST) would start at 11:00 Sydney time.
#
capjamesg The London one would start at midnight your time 🙈
#
capjamesg You’re also welcome to hang out in chat here and ask questions about websites, or, indeed, work with someone you know to start your own Homebrew Website Club meetup!

cophee Ooo okay!!! Thank you capjamesg[d]
#
cophee I’m a design person who got into code (still quite noob at it though) and loved the idea of having a small part of the internet that I can call home ☺️
#
cophee I think if there are any other Sydneysiders here, I’d love to work together to start a Homebrew Website Club!

[Ros] ↩️ I’m a noob too (and a Kiwi!) - you’ve landed in the *best* place if you want to make your corner on the web. The people here are the best

ryokagriffin Hey all, little intro: I only recently heard about the indie web/slow web but it has put a name to something I've been thinking about and looking for since, what... 2006? Earlier?
#
ryokagriffin I have blogged in my little corner of the web for a few years without much to say but, since finding this indie web thing, over the last few weeks I scrapped wordpress in favour of a really simple self built site that gives me full control. It has brought with it a return of the interest and joy I once had poking at and messing with web stuff and I'm hopeful that the momentum will continue and allow me to maybe post some actual content?
#
ryokagriffin Anyway, glad to have found this community and hopefully one day I can contribute something.

[Joe_Crawford] Hi ryokagriffin — sounds like you’re in the right place. If you’ve got a website feel free to share the url — and check out https://indieweb.org which is a trove of great info on how folks use the indieweb. Welcome!
#
ryokagriffin You're right though, the site has loads of great stuff. Trying to absorb it all and see what else is out there

#
ryokagriffin Hey 🙂 I actually found this chat via the indieweb.org site whilst reading through some meeting notes from a 2022 popup! Because that's how I like to spend my evenings apparently 😄
