Hi everyone! I recently got into the idea of digital gardening. According to IndieWeb, A digital garden is a particular practice of creating & growing an online and public IndieWeb presence that focuses more on topics & relationships than a timeline like blogs, has content of different levels of development, is imperfect and often a playground for experimentation, learning, revising, iteration, and growth for diverse content, perhaps interlinked with other digital gardens. It’s kind of like a carefully tended digital commonplace book.

I was wondering if anyone else did digital gardening? I’ve seen more techy people use the SSG Quartz, and for non small web solutions, Obsidian is popular, others use Notion, Bear, etc. Tons of apps exist for this (r/digitalgardening is a good subreddit!) and I think you could use DW for it too! but I serve mine on a static hand coded site here on my personal website and my question is. If you have a public digital gardening on the small web, I’d love a link! If you like the idea and want to try it, let me know!

I think of my Dreamwidth as a digital garden, even if it is chronological - it's a repository for my thoughts and I've started back-linking to other entries like digital gardens do. (You could use the tags and/or memories function for this.)

My grad school website is informed by the digital garden ethos of "learning in public."
