Transforming knowledge into well-digestible material is my mission. As they say: _the best way to learn something is to teach it_ - I couldn't agree more. Besides various formal teaching assignments at KU Leuven, I've also coached software developers in different companies, and occasionally organize bread baking workshops.

@ -92,4 +92,4 @@ A few other apps I regularly use that worked flawlessly on LineageOS:
After stress testing LineageOS for two weeks, I can safely say I'm impressed. Even the battery life somewhat improved. Granted, I am not a heavy smartphone user. I hate carrying the thing around and sometimes "forget" it, much to my wife's frustration. But still - I thought getting rid of Google Calendar and others would involve more headaches. I have deleted most e-mails, all my photos, calendar items, and contacts from my Google account, and have not regretted it once. However, _do not delete your entire Google account_. It now serves as a good spam e-mail address! Give those pesky car salesman your GMail address and they'll think they've got you. Ha!
If you also experimented with the OS, let me know what you think of Lineage. Which programs did not work that well? Did you experience any trouble with the Google withdrawal plan? [Toot me](https://chat.brainbaking.com/@wouter)!

Okay, so now, I can answer the _why_. Not because it will be heavily used, or the IndieWeb stuff feels like the future. The low adoption rate says it all... No, simply because I was bored and wanted to learn about modern JS frameworks. I had an excuse to code again. Yay!
Still, once I more or less finished a first revision of my own toolset (sending is up next), I felt a bit empty inside. What's the point? Who will _webmention_ me anyway? Those few other tech-related cooler bloggers? If you pay attention to the webmentions on other sites, you'll notice that `95%` of them are Twitter feeds, probably converted into webmentions by services like [brid.gy](https://brid.gy/). My point is that as far as **usability** goes, the IndieWeb standard completely falls apart. Sure, decentralization is the future. That's why I try to host and own my own data such as my [Mastodon Instance](https://chat.brainbaking.com/) - and that's the philosophy of the IndieWeb.

But I can't ask my wife to stop posting on Instagram because she's giving her data away? I can't ask her to post it on her own Wordpress-site, after installing a bunch of [barely working](https://kevq.uk/removing-support-for-the-indieweb/) POSSES-related plug-ins? And I can't ask visitors of my own site to "webmention me!" if they don't have a site?

When [I asked Ruben](https://chat.brainbaking.com/objects/27c24d67-e141-415e-a4ca-a71a722773f1) how his lovely image-with-play-button _thingies_ were scripted in his Hugo-powered site over at [rubenerd.com](https://rubenerd.com), Ruben was quick to respond. He unfolded the idea and implementation in [a separate blog post](https://rubenerd.com/inline-links-to-videos-with-play-buttons/)---thanks, Ruben! In a nutshell, it's a simple cobbled-together shell script that leans on both `youtube-dl` and `convert` to do the heavy lifting. The script takes an argument, and it's not exactly clear how it is executed, but I wanted to somehow completely integrate it into my Hugo workflow, so it should be called automagically.
