Otso

IndieWeb Alignment

Otso builds on IndieWeb protocols and encourages publishing on your own domain first.

Principles embraced

Section titled “Principles embraced”
  • Own your data – everything lives in a local database you control.
  • Publish first – your site is the source of truth; POSSE pushes copies out.
  • PESOS optional – you can import from silos without surrendering ownership.

Protocol support

Section titled “Protocol support”
  • Micropub for publishing.
  • Webmention for replies, likes, and reposts.
  • Microformats2 for semantic HTML.

Extending the IndieWeb

Section titled “Extending the IndieWeb”

By keeping sources, enrichments, and publishing logic pluggable, Otso allows experimentation while staying interoperable with existing IndieWeb tools.
