Hello, world 2
This is my first post intentionally created for this stream. If all goes well, there will be many more after this—ideally none so meta. Prior posts have been (selectively) copied from my existing notes or tweets, toots, scrawls, and musings scattered around the internet.
Why? —mumbles about data sovereignty and “blogging as a revolutionary art practice”— I don’t want to ever “need” to post on more than one social media platform. So why not make my own? And it’ll be on my website where no one else can take it down—except Vercel, [redacted to avoid phishing], Amazon, Cloudflare, and a handful of ICANN keyholders, certificate authorities, nation states, and deep sea divers.
More practically, I read too many of Robin Sloan’s blog posts; Maggie Appleton’s budding notes format inspired me to publish earlier; and this specific format was lifted almost completely from Linus Lee (with more motivation from Grant Custer). The nerdy details of how it's all set up are over here
