How does this differ from how Diaspora works?

  diaspora is an open source social network. It's not a site for an individual, unlike, for example, http://withknown.com/ http://withknown.com/, WordPress, and the rest. My personal opinion behind the indieweb is here, in case it makes more sense like this: https://petermolnar.eu/journal/indieweb-decentralize-web-centralizing-ourselves/ https://petermolnar.eu/journal/indieweb-decentralize-web-cen...

  Diaspora is one product, whereas the indie web is a set of really lightweight technologies that allow you to join in from virtually any website. It's not dependent on any one vendor or project. I think the coolest bit is that each of the pieces is so simple that a coder can get up and running from scratch in an afternoon. That's very different to a lot of the federated social web technologies to date.

  Most Diaspora users join pods run by other people. This is for each person to run their own site.
