POSSE vs PESOS

Two common IndieWeb workflows:

  • POSSE – Publish on your Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere.
  • PESOS – Publish Elsewhere, Syndicate to Own Site.

When to use POSSE

Section titled “When to use POSSE”

Use when you control the canonical post and want copies on silos. Otso publishes to your site first and then cross‑posts.

When to use PESOS

Section titled “When to use PESOS”

Useful when a silo offers tools you need. Import the content and keep a canonical copy in Otso.

Hybrid workflows

Section titled “Hybrid workflows”

You can mix both: POSSE your own posts while PESOS likes or replies made on other networks. Otso tracks origin for each event so projections stay consistent.
