The global trade resource is almost as fascinating as the changing global diets website, with one huge proviso. The arrows go, roughly, from the centre of the exporting country to the centre of the importing country. That is, it completely ignores the reality of containerisation, which has had such a massive impact on food systems and much else besides. There's a new podcast series about it, called Containers, by Alexis Madrigal.

Replied to a post on medium.com :

"The federated nature of Mastodon, GnuSocial, the blogosphere and indeed the multiply-linked web is now seen as confusing by those used to Twitter’s silo."

And also by those not used to Twitter's silo.

I think I'll wait until @cleverdevil's memory thing tweaks are in the Known core before adopting -- but I like the idea.

@LukasRosenstock Absolutely. Make it easy to host an indieweb capable domain and business can only grow.

Achievement unlocked (thanks to huge help from the community) -- now receiving webmentions at Eat This Podcast. But lots still to be done.

Working my way through Chris Aldrich's guide to bringing Twitter @mentions home, and while the WP site is not responding, this site is. But, in the absence of a /mentions page, where on Earth are those backlinks going? And can I display them?

@MarkedApp It's not really a writing app though, is it? I love it for proofing.

@kevinmarks Interesting piece, although @Withknown didn't like @velartrill's URL

More great advocacy for the from @chrisaldrich.

One of the things I have a hard time wrapping my head around is the different ways in which people use different silos. Some, obviously, are different. Like super short-form Twitter. But for the others? Is it just that they want to be where all their contacts are, or is there more to it than that? Heck, I can scarcely decide whether to put things on 10C or pNut or both, so I often don't bother.
