Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, Oracle Free Tier…does all this “free” hosting make anyone else uneasy? No? Just me then? 🫣

I'm so exhausted by various self-hosted projects that say "It's easy to host on {Netlify|Vercel|CloudFlare}" with no thought about what happens when those companies no longer offer a free tier, get too expensive, or you just want to move off of them. One specific host as part of the infrastructure is a terrible idea.

Do you know what's nice and easy to install on a server and not locked to one vendor? PHP. https://rknight.me/notes/202405211209/

⭐ The InclusiveWeb by @adam https://notes.neatnik.net/2024/06/the-inclusiveweb

"An IndieWeb that isn’t inclusive offers no value to the world. An IndieWeb built by and for only certain people isn’t a web at all."

Amen.

It's ponderous to me that I chose to use the word “excerpt" for my blog post summaries many years ago, a word I struggle to spell every time, instead of just calling it "summary”.

I should fix that so I never have to write it again.

@kev I think that's where it came from, yeah. I did have my site on WP briefly.

Hey folks, my very talented friend launched her Kickstarter today for a very fancy looking tarot deck https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/witchin/good-fortune-tarot

There's even a fun website to go with it https://tarot.witchin.co.uk

Today, I discovered my LG washer and dryer have both become disconnected from my wifi network, and to tell you I have never experienced rage until I realized I was going to have to troubleshoot my washer and dryer's fucking wifi connections would be a horrifying understatement.

@keenan @bendaubney @anniegreens My friend who has an Internet connected washing machine says she can make custom wash cycles.

So there’s literally no reason for it.
