Does anyone have a personal blogging setup they are in love with? Just absolutely excited to use it every time?
I want to start writing more again but I have like 4 blogs and my posting rate on them is like 0.25 posts a year on average and I’m not super happy with any of them.
Ideally I want something I can self host (either on GitHub pages or my VPS), maybe statically generated but doesn’t have to be, that would be easy to upload posts and media to from my phone in addition to desktop. I’ve debated a bunch of ideas (notion, docuwiki, Hugo, etc.) and none of them are compelling enough to make me feel like implementing them.
Weekly #blog. I’m thrilled to have extra time for #running and #cycling this week, especially since the rain storms politely scheduled themselves to fit my plans
@bomkatt The co-working with friends is something I have done for nearly twenty years now. We work out of a corner of a pub that doesn't mind us being there for hours. Get out of the home and see real people!
On m'a posé la question de mon #organisation quotidienne lors du salon de l'illu à Haguenau, alors j'ai repris un vieil article de #blog et l'ai complété avec tout ce que j'ai appris ces 2-3 dernières années en tant qu'artiste multicasquette. Si ça peut en aider d'autres, ce sera déjà très bien !
@RL_Dane@joel@amin@dm@ivan@sotolf@thedoctor I've used quite a few mobile OSs over the years, and in my experience gesture wise, WebOS: Awesome, Meego: Awesome, BB10: Awesome, Android: Unusable, forcing me to waste part of my screen to hold buttons that should have been in hardware, WIndows phone: Okish where they exist, multitouch trackpads: Nuisance
@nhoizey readability-lxml https://pypi.org/project/readability-lxml/ essaye de faire un titre cohérent (retrait de ce que l'on retrouve dans tous les titres ou retrait de ce qui est à la fin, je n'ai pas creusé), souvent ça enlève l'auteur·ice sur les blogs.
@adamsdesk I grew up similarly to you, starting on C=64 then briefly a C=128, then a used 286 with DR-DOS and amber monochrome monitor (oh it was sweet) for $80 from a local SysOp.
Beyond Desqview there was no viable way to multitask on a PC back then..I wanted to run a multi-node BBS so I did DV and finally succumbed to Win95.
While it worked, I hated how it scattered files in the root of my C: drive like animal droppings. I felt a loss of control set in at that point.
@lns That's cool. I still want to own C64 as I never had the opportunity to play with them. I did play with DR-DOS, PC-DOS and monochrome monitors. Dang that is a sweet deal. BBSs were great.
Do you still have the C64 or C128?
Oh yes, DESQview was amazing back in the day. Don't forget about the fights with TSRs. That's a tragedy.
Oh no kidding. Though unfortunately that scattered way is present on Linux due to certain programs.
@Seirdy Honestly? Sounds complicated. Plus I need to be aware of any comments, only then they show up. So far Mastodon is friendly, and I just implemented the block list for when I need it. I rather have open discussions and don't need to rebuild it every time.

Nouveau billet !
Comment être parfait, de Michael Schur,
traduit par Maxime Berrée pour Philosophie Magazine Editeur.
Un parfait manuel d'introduction à la philosophie morale, à la fois érudit et drôle !
Le billet complet est sur le blog : http://unspicilege.org/index.php?post/Comment-%C3%AAtre-parfait
Unsurprising, but good to have explicitly laid out:
"The overall effect of looking at my Substack dashboard is 'wow, Substack is really getting me an audience! If I leave Substack, half of my subscription channel will dry up.' It’s clear that this is the impression other writers, the media, and investors are getting as well, because they praise Substack about it all the time."
I already don't like Substack and massively prefer reading things on the writer's own website, and this kind of manipulation to keep people there just confirms my dislike
「 In the same time library books have seen a lot. They were touched by a lot of greasy fingers, seen a lot of toilets. Just look at those two. Both are still fully usable, despite the tired look. 」
I did a write up of setting up Webmentions on my site! I had mentioned it earlier, but there was one stumbling block that took me longer to figure out.
Webmentions let me get notified when people share my posts, respond to my comments on other sites, etc., and lets me use my site for a lot of the kinds of interactions I'd otherwise have to do on social media.
This week's game is Gaia's Moon, a pre-Flappy Bird DSiWare game about flying for as long as you can in order to save the day. If you remember that flash game with the little green helicopter, this is pretty much that but with a bit more going on:
