Head’s up! In a week, I’ll be migrating @atomicpoet to my Akkoma server. That is, I’m consolidating that account with @atomicpoet.

In my experience, while most followers get moved during account migrations, not all of them do so. Therefore, if you want to ensure that you continue to follow me, pre-emptively follow @atomicpoet prior to the migration.

One a Month Club https://rknight.me/blog/one-a-month-club/

@jarrod inspired me to add a membership to my Buy Me a Coffee page (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/rknightuk) and of course I gave it a stupid and/or excellent name

@robb @jarrod cool name. But "Knighthood" was right there. Would have liked to of been "knight-ed" 😅

TikTok is an absolute hellscape of the same 3 songs played over and over again ever since the UMG licensing deal expired. It's nearly unusable

@tallshmo you could have stopped with "TikTok is an absolute hellscape" 😅

booters, to SmallWeb

I spent the last week scraping through a terabyte of GeoCities archives and collecting ALL THE #88x31 buttons! In the end, I gathered 29257 unique buttons (75k with duplicates). They are available at https://hellnet.work/8831/

Check them out!

I also have the dataset (~160MB), stats and a bit about the scraping process here: https://hellnet.work/8831/stats.html

Are there any other static site contact form services? Formspree has been great but as of lately might need to change.

Mozilla and Automattic really duking it out for who can lose decades of community goodwill the fastest

sass,
@sass@mastodon.social avatar

@Daojoan People don't have a lot of alternatives with Mozilla. Wordpress however has a thriving sleight of alternative options 🤔

sass,
@sass@mastodon.social avatar

@MichaelBishop @Daojoan As others have been saying, there is still technically some air gap between self-hosted WP and WP.com, but if you’re worried about how this could trickle into WP itself, you are interested in taking a principled stand, or were looking for any reason to try something new, (and you have time to stand something new up) there are some good options out there. Static site generators (which I use one of) are very popular and imo pretty easy - e.g. Eleventy, Hugo and Jekyll.

I have been redesigning my website quite a bit today, funnily enough I realized @amin is doing it too lol.

For now I am getting rid of a bunch of divs with classes and replacing them with html elements such as aside and article. Trimming down the CSS I have to do for many classes into just a few niche cases :P

@joel @amin ooph doing a cleanup of my html is on the long list of things I'd like to do ...

I introduced a new kind of post on my site to try and encourage me to capture the shorter kinds of thoughts that might otherwise go elsewhere. #indieweb https://werd.io/2024/introducing-asides

sass,
@sass@mastodon.social avatar

@ben Do you see a distinction between your "asides" and what IndieWeb.org describes as a "note" https://indieweb.org/note? I also see "asides" as a little namespace conflict-ey with <aside> https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/aside. Regardless, I love folks adding short-form content to their site so I'm here for it either way. Cheers!

It's my understanding that those seeing Dune in theaters are not allowed to leave to pee as that would mean wasting valuable moisture. Someone report back!

Are you enjoying something you're reading on Mastodon (and the rest of the Fedi) ?

Favorite it. ⭐

Do you think your followers might enjoy it too?

Boost it. 🔁

Let's not forget that one of the great things about the Fedi is that it's PEOPLE DRIVEN. Content isn't pushed to you by an algorithm. It comes from people JUST LIKE YOU.

Mastodon is what we make of it. So let's make it the things that we enjoy. Favorite. Boost. Share the love.

Wait, everybody online freaked out about something that didn't actually come to fruition? Can that be?

@jsit or maybe the internet-wide freak out helped put an end to the idea... 💡 🤔
