I like indieweb but I'm not on board with their 'design first' slogan. I think to be most effective such a thing should be 'content first'.

Content, in terms of quality; and subsequently curation/censorship?

Otherwise, content falls into a specific set of mediums (text, images, video, sound), all of which are assumed on a modern platform and aren't worth reconsidering. Design and presentation, however, has infinite possibility.

Most of the possibilities get in the way of the content.

How do you get curation and censorship out of a bunch of people publishing things separately on their own websites?

That's my point. Why should content be the first priority if it's qualifications are not open to discussion?
