So is there some good federated blogging software yet?

I'm starting a new blog, content for the next few months is lined up

I was gonna do a standard self-hosted Wordpress install, but I'm feeling frisky and want to try something different

Boosts appreciated!

@clhendricksbc Okay, that draft on higher ed as co-op is ready if you'd like to look at it! https://nathanschneider.info/open-work/a-wantless-workless-world/

Anyone know of an open source alternative to Padlet? https://padlet.com

I like the functionality but it did something weird: I had added some stuff to others' pads before I had an account; then I created an account and it had tracked me and added my contributions to those pads (before I had an account) to my new account.

When I emailed them to ask how this happened and how data is tracked, I got a non-answer.

What are your preferred alternatives to Google Drive's shared documents for writing/editing? Preferring ones which don't require accoutn/login!

Please Boost!?

Somebody mentioned here recently that Google has a scary grip over the technologies underlying how we build/use the internet and mentioned Google Fonts (among other things). This got me a little spooked but also made me more conscious of how I use fonts and the fonts I should be using/supporting.

Can anybody link me to good resources for how I should be setting up fonts for web, and just nice, pleasing (#FOSS?) fonts I can use for personal computing?

Aside from keeping patched and up-to-date, what are your tips and techniques for staying secure on Android device?

I'm contemplating spending a bit more time than I have in the last few years macro-blogging. I want to migrate off blogspot. I figure I'll be self-hosting and would like the following features:

* Markdown that produces modern, WCAG-compliant HTML5
* Mobile-first theming with modern CSS and absolute minimal JavaScript
* RSS
* Zotero-ready
* Push to Wayback Machine on publish/update
* FOSS
* Python api

Suggestions?
