From time to time, I'm wondering if my blog should be accessible via a .onion domain? I have no idea if that's complex or easy to do… But maybe that's a way of having an alternative in case DNS providers start doing weird things? Those days, the tech industry seems capable of everything…

Two easy things you can do with your website to make it more fediverse-ready:
Add a rel=me link so you can get a "verified" mark on your profile, see https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/verification-in-the-fediverse/ (this works for a few platforms)
And if you're on Mastodon, you can show a little "author tag" when someone posts your links:

I'm a fan of friction. I think friction in creativity, design and UX/UI should exist.
Modern technology is all about the removal of friction. These things feel at odds but I like to think of friction as opportunities for agency.

This is a great idea that I’m going to file away for later:
I like the idea of redirecting /now to the latest post tagged as now so one could see the latest version of what I’m doing now.

My Seek 2024 Year in Review:
* 141 new species observed, of those, the top three kinds:
* 79 plants
* 20 insects
* 16 fungi
* 56 challenge badges earned
June was the month I observed the most new species in 2024, followed by March, and then July.
Seek also gave me a graph of observations per month, and also a map of where I made my discoveries.
Rather than posting screenshots of the Year in Review that Seek provided me in the app, I am posting the relevant content here in a post on my personal site, which I know I’ll be able to search and look up in the future.
Seek is a delightful free (like actually free, free of tracking, free of surveillance) native mobile application for identifying species.
Made by the iNaturalist folks (https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/seek_app), Seek works without creating an account, and is able to work completely offline to identify species out in the wild (and add them to your local collection).
Seek awards you Species Badges when you discover a number of species of a particular grouping, as well as Challenge Badges when you complete one or more of their monthly challenges that they post.
In some ways it’s like Pokemon Go, except based on finding and collecting observations of real living things.
I have found it quite useful especially when traveling, and wondering is that plant (or animal) the same as one I’ve seen elsewhere, perhaps around home, or is it a slightly different species?
I also really like the good example that Seek provides for how an app can be immediately useful without requiring extra labor (like creating an account, or logging on) on behalf of the person using it.
Lastly, Seek is an excellent example of a truly offline capable app where nearly all of its functionality works just fine without a network connection.
Both of these capabilities (offline first, no login wall) are what we should aspire to when we build #indieweb apps or websites for ourselves and our friends.
