Zuck: we're launching an interoperable ecosystem called #Metaverse
#Fediverse: oh hey twinsies
Zuck: we launched a text based app connected to #ActivityPub

Zuck: *face melts to expose a steel exoskeleton* WE COPY THE FLAGSHIP FEATURES OF SMALL APPS SO THAT THOSE APPS DIE THIS HAS BEEN OUR ENTIRE BUSINESS MODEL FOR TEN YEARS
Guy who invented the at sign: fascinating. A victory for open source
**New Blog Post:** Memories of an empty city

I am continually impressed by my colleagues, friends, and acquaintances that make their own websites, whether it's design, dev, strategy, or somehow manage the entire task on their own. Regardless, get out there and make a site for yourself. Reach out for help if you need it.
I'm collecting a bunch that have recently emerged or recently found, but until I collect them up for posting, here's one to start with:

> In 2014, you may've taken a quiz online. Something that looks like this. And if you did, you probably shared your personal data and friends' personal data.

@ILoveNumAn I indeed have. Since you also mentioned missing flash games, I recommend checking out @waxy . He mainly shares techy articles, but also quirky browser games and weird little #indieweb projects.
New story in my People series: A niche stack. Just a short story about an encounter at the store when looking for a holiday treat.

It's official! I'm now a proud participant in the IndieWeb!
Microformats, webmentions, feed, automatic backfeed from Mastodon... the whole package!
I just wished for clearer documentation.. figuring out how to interconnect the various pieces was quite a nightmare, but very simple once understood.

Just got a wonderful treat for switching to a privacy-first web analytics tool.
Previously my site landing page performance was sitting in the 60s to 70s… Not ideal.
After scraping out Google Analytics, the other dependencies it required, and swapping in Fathom Analytics
Mobile to 84, Desktop to 99 🤯
Working to address some LCP issues on mobile (going to try preloading fonts) but… holy crap what a stark change.
OK, the stars were consulted, and it has been decided:
Season 2 of Fern River Club will begin this Friday, March 29. 🌴
A new scene will drop every Friday for the next 10 weeks thereafter (with a few surprises sprinkled in...)
Tell your friends! 🛋️

I love RSS - there I said it!
In a few 1:1 coversations this year as well as a few online posts I've read, I've realiseed there are still people out there who don't know about this wonderful technology and that it's now getting some momentum again.
So now that I've back writing post again .. here's a little something.
