Technology should exist for our convenience, not for the convenience of anyone who wants to interrupt us. from #Hyperfocus by #ChrisBailey
This resonates deeply with me. I loathe constant phone buzzing or browser notifications. Sometimes it feels like we’re slaves to the technology instead of us being the boss.
FYI the #book is not aimed at the #neurodiverse at all; my goal in reading it is to find #research-backed information that can help me understand and handle my distractions and maybe - just maybe - he’ll have some #tips that will be useful for *my* brain.
For example, knowing that it takes 29 minutes to get back on track after distracting ourselves (vs 6 minutes when distracted by someone else) quantifies the consequences of distractions. Thinking that a distraction = losing half an hour feels much more tangible.

I've been following the #indieweb / #microformats movement for a very long time. Every now and then (and today is one of those days) I feel the urge of investigating it all again, creating my own blog with h-card, h-entry, webmentions... But somehow I feel it's an all-or-nothing approach: either you use WordPress + plugins (which I don't want for `$reasons`) or you build the whole thing yourself.
I wish there was something just at the right level of abstraction, an HTML framework of sorts (1/2)

Weighing up hosting and domain options at the moment (with help from some of the lovely #VirtualGothNight folks). Will hopefully buy my domain on payday in a couple of weeks and reclaim a corner of the Internet for my own waffle.
From a digital wellbeing point of view, I think I struggle with timelines, algorithmic or not... #indieweb#digitalwellbeing

I added back the posting activity visualization that was on my site a while ago. Now it's on the homepage under my bio instead of at the bottom of each post. There's four shades of blue based on relative number of posts. Hovering on a square shows the date and number of posts.
Next I would like to set up daily archive pages that each box can link to.

I'm digging more into https://emissary.social/ today. And it seems to be something I've been thinking for a while. Especially with this time where no for-profit platform is worth investing time anymore.
I'll test and see where help is needed. But for now, it seems quite impressive!
