   @zachleat Definitely. I've shared this feeling for a long while now. But how do we do that? Are there any initiatives that you know of?

   @zachleat!

   Only tangentially related, sorry, but have you heard about Weird Web October?

   https://weirdweboctober.website

   Might be a fun event to help promote as way to build up the indie web community!

      @stefan @zachleat whoa. I've got my process down to where I can spin up a new site in under 5min. this would be hell of a good way to put in some reps if I can remember to do it.

      (thinking I'll go ahead an make stubs for them all tonight so I can just edit and ship the actual code... :blobfoxthink: )

   @zachleat Yes! Start by not spreading division as in us vs them (good vs bad people).
