Hey hypothetical question for users of Publii:

I noticed that there is a custom HTML block option. Is it possible to make an "old school" styled web page with divs and all that though that and still use the blog functionality?

Like this is years in the future, and I want practice HTML on neocoties first but I would love to make an 2000s style website for my brand in the future.

If I can ever get that off the ground...

"Why The Indieweb?
This is the story of the birth of the web, its loss of innocence, its decline, and what we can do to make it a bit less gross. Or if you prefer, this is the video in which I say the expression “barbecue sets” far too many times.

I've seen a few different people recently re-start personal blogs and it made me want to tinker with static site tools again... I've also been wondering how many little painting projects I've started and just left half-done here on Mastodon (11. The answer is currently _11_).

So... still very much a WIP (another, add it to the count), but technically this works, syncing up Mastodon toots and stats as purely static content:

I love the fact that #webmentions exist but like all communication things it requires an external active server.

Also, setting it up on a #website adds some more complexity than a "site" wants to have. It's isn't a necessity but isn't unnecessary either. I love the concept of #blogs mentioning each other, connected yet very personal and unique.

But, It's very niche and I haven't seen a webmention that is purely blog to blog, it's almost always social media to blog.

I am not much of a blogger but, I love the concept of a group of friends discussing over a topic in their blog circle and the blogs are connected in a way that it webs everyone but in their own unique style and controlled by themselves.

I just want the internet to be interactive yet personal and independent without any centralization. *If I write more I feel like I'll repeat myself again.*

For someone like me who just uses GitHub to host my #staticsite without having to rent a server, it's again a bit too complicated to support webmentions. I wish webmentions was easier and widely adopted, that's all.

Just rebuilt my personal site with 11ty — kept it minimal and content-focused.
Not chasing trends, just wanted a space that feels like mine.

Still a work in progress, but would love feedback

There's also this post from yesterday, which I couldn't share because my mastodon instance was down:

Fresh new instance, fresh new #introduction time.

I'm Erin, yet another autistic transgender anarchist from so-called Portland, Oregon. I used to have fancy tech jobs with titles like "Lead Full-Stack Software Engineer" until I burnt out, got laid off, and discovered that the tech industry was done with me. Nowadays I survive on a very part-time gig as a general technologist and some freelance tech work when I can find it. My part-time gig is unionized through the IWW, of which I am a proud member. I've been on fedi under various names and handles since GNU Social was the cool new thing.

My special interests include Cybersecurity, Casio watches, Dungeons & Dragons, Final Fantasy XIV, the Indieweb, Linux, old ThinkPads, XMPP, Yuri Anime and Manga, and stuffed sharks.
