@mer_matthews I’m not competent to judge everything you have said, but I do know that it certainly does not cost $25 a month to have a site that makes use of IndieWeb principles and building blocks. Do you have specific examples in mind?

The point is the same though: IndieWeb will cost a little bit of money one way or the other, and it won't claim to pay you.

@mer_matthews You can get turnkey Indieweb at micro.blog for $5 a month. The bigger question is, what has payment to do with it? Not everybody who publishes online is looking for payment. Maybe some dislike being sharecroppers for the silos. Not the same as wanting to be paid.

Oh neat, I haven't seen that, that's cool. And the point, more than anything, is the contrast between the two.

No, I just pulled that number out of the air. My reference is a nice web hosting package from 10 years ago, and assuming a few extra bucks makes the process simpler/needs fewer skills than deploying, say, eleventy/GitHub/netlify
