Something is terribly wrong.
Just added a new article to the VEX.blue BETA site: No Code' Is Bad
I’ve used no-code tools before, but building VEX.blue from scratch showed me the value of actually learning the basics.
From monthly fees to platform lock-in, this post is about why No Code works for some, but not for everyone.

The post where I renamed the blog to Articles is now on the BETA site!
I talk about future content plans — from decentralisation and gaming, to local news — plus updates on RSS and keeping the site ad-free.

✨ Just added my article “Decentralised Social Media” to the VEX.blue BETA site - Now with Fediverse comments!
It’s a full write-up on Mastodon, Threads, and why decentralisation matters.

Sleep Like a Computer
I recently went on vacation and, for the first time in years, I applied the concept of sleep to virtually every aspect of my digital life.

My entry for this month's IndieWeb Carnival (hosted by (@nicksimson.com)
I've been mostly making music tools rather than writing music. Today I'm talking about getting out of this rut with a “take two” on my current composition:

IndieWeb Carnival: Take Two
It’s been a few weeks, but I finally made a new Weeknotes post!
I got out of the groove there for a bit, but I’m back with a little update on what I’ve been up to lately.
Hey, looking for something fun to watch and write about on innertubes web home page? Try the #IndieWeb Movie Club. Hosted this month by Jo of dead.garden: https://dead.garden/blog/indieweb-movie-club-june-2025.html
Watch Mary Poppins. Write about it. Or do a drawing about it. Or an interpretive dance about it. On your website.
I've always liked the basic concept and framework of Goodreads and it bums me out that it sucks in so many ways now. One thing I've been meaning to do in response is follow the practice of POSSE (https://indieweb.org/POSSE), and then decide later if I want to delete those accounts. Tracking my reading and writing capsule reviews are an easy first step, especially since my reading rate has tanked in the last couple years anyway.

We might not get all the targeting and tracking that comes with the corporate web, but that’s also why we’re not on the corporate web. Our website engagement is a lot more real, a lot more meaningful, and a lot more human. It’s quality over quantity. ♥
Happy Monday!

Just added a full article to the VEX.blue BETA site!
