A little game to help myself get things done:

📽️ New video tutorial!
We just published a quick walkthrough showing how easy it is to create a personal website on InlineStyle using just Markdown.
No build tools. No configs. Just .md files → live pages at yourname.inli.me.

Why not start a blog? Or any other kind of website off of social media? Especially if the social media you're using is not yours (like your own fedi server).
Do save your pages/ files/ texts on your computer too, not just on the server your site/ blog lives on, so they don't vanish should the host server vanish.
Don't be afraid of shouting into the void at first. Enjoy the process of finding out what you would like to do with your site. People will find you if you want that!
Not ready to publish to the world? Play with the site on your computer first. There is no need to ever publish your site anywhere.
Use a service that offers pre-existing designs or try your hand at HTML and maybe even CSS yourself.
Resources for the latter could be
HTML for people by @bw@social.lol
NeoCities
those you can find on my site's links collection
and many more.
Don't worry about a schedule. Post stuff whenever you want. 5 times a day, once every 6 months, or something else entirly - it's your site and your rules.
Most of all: Have fun creating, have fun learning, have fun expressing yourself!

/2025/09/17/hello-world/ is too long and hard to implement in #Zola.
/posts/hello-world/ leads to collisions over years.
I'm torn between flat /posts/ and dated /2025/09/17/ hierarchies.
And generating an index for /2025/ and /2025/09/ and /2025/09/17/ is a lot of work.
And then there's the #IndieWeb notions of notes, which aim to publish content like this toot on the website before going to Mastodon. How to generate a slug for every single toot and not run into collisions?
/posts/miri-path-too-long/ perhaps.
I've updated the post stream with something new.
Content warning:A short rant about basically everything.
I'm Tired
Also, another question,
Is there a project that merge functionality of #Indieweb with #activitypub ?
E.g. a cross compatibily layer with PubSubHubBub, webmentions, etc
To let #indieweb user, website owner comment on #activitypub user & vice versa.
I know following RSS/Atom wouldn't be an issue & that works. I'm more interested in dynamic notifications, pingbacks, search, federation between activitypub & indieweb.
Re-toot, this important.
(pinging @smallcircles , because it is about small social circles, and you seem like the only indieweb person I know here on fediverse, you can ping people who related to IndieWeb)
I'm obsessed with the design of URLs.
🎮 Gamepad support just landed on InlineStyle Gaming!
You can now browse the entire game library on https://gaming.inlinestyle.it using your controller — no keyboard needed.
And yes, Bio Menace now supports gamepad input too!
Run, gun, explode mutants — the way it was meant to be played.

It's been 6 months of The Bryant Blog. That's bananas to me. But what's even crazier is how much success we've found in that short amount of time! Check out my post about it where we break down the numbers:

Oh my gosh I have a /website/ :D
https://spectrumofeevee.com/index.html
Features it has:
- a home page, an about page, and a blog page with several personal blog posts on disability-related topics
- an RSS feed
- a comment widget
- a few buttons
- a favicon
- a little bit of custom CSS (I made it green!)
- a custom domain
- all of this is hand-coded by a beginner (with lots of help and occasional minor copy-pasting from online articles/tutorials, and with the exception of most of the CSS, which I downloaded from online)
Features I want to add in the future:
- more CSS customization (make it look pretty)
- mobile optimization (currently it's readable for me, but not great, and probably not super accessible)
- more stuff I'm sure
How do you deal with the loss of a library before you've lost it?
