Hunting for #personalwebsites

Today's trophy is
keningzhu.com and it’s been added to pinboard.in/u:mikael/t:homepag

Squarespace, but very impressive/intimate.

Bah, the VPS running my private Mastodon instance ran out of disk space last night. After some attention everything seems to have come back online OK, but apologies if I've missed anything. Adding a cleanup job to cron to run nightly...

@AndyPaciorekArt @bookstodon bah!!! I love this series and would buy them every time I saw them. They aren't locally available where I live now tho and postage is horrendous, so I haven't purchased any for years. At least I don't have to fight the urge 🤣

@mrshll Thank you! They look fantastic, what a collection! I haven't actually read most of those either. Not a bad way to find your next book to read, slowly hunting down a collection like that

@mrshll never seen that version of the cover! Beautiful

@BobWilliams 100% - without the vanity numbers people have to make up their own mind about what matters. There is far less peer pressure involved in Mastodon/ActivityPub, and far more personal responsibility.

@BobWilliams although posts can gain popularity between instances, that the algorithm cannot be globally manipulated precludes ActivityPub from the vapid virility of centralised social media, and this is for the better. This will change once some large company (say Apple) creates a service that integrates into ActivityPub but reduces the choices currently required of new user. It will quickly be adopted and our feeds will be flooded once more with division and hatred :(

@dirt it is a lovely picture of the lamp by your bed to be next to the lamp by your bed tho.

The bus will never respect you if you run to it. Act casual. Make the bus come to you
