just putting a quick feeler out...are you a product person who's interested in helping out with some open source stuff? Specifically, foss designed to help artists/creatives/etc? I'm not doing a full call for folks rn but I'm wondering if I've got moots or other folks this might reach who are like 👀

Just did a post about the current coding job market. About how much I relent AI code and rabid profit driven companies. Its very ranty.

How to detect “Slow Web” writing through text analysis:

• Average sentence length → depth of reflection

• First-person rate → level of introspection

• Emotion polarity (lexicon-based) → calm or neutral tone

• Buzzword ratio → viral or performative bias

• Abstract/concrete balance → sincerity of voice

• Style variance → steadiness of thought

A quiet algorithm to find thoughtful writing.

Masto-mailo-inator by Michał M. Sapka

"Masto-mailo-inator is a small program which allows reading Mastodon from the comfort from your modern email client. It works by reading mastodon API and storing each toot as a mail message in Maildir format. I build to escape from browser even more, to learn python and how email works."

I made two classless CSS themes. Nebula I and II are simple, minimal classless CSS themes designed to look like Gemtext from the Project Gemini web protocol.

The blue theme is shown but there's a red theme as well.

Flirting with #indieweb again. Learned that some folk are creating "now" pages. Sorta like, you have a contact page and an about page. Now you also have a _now_ page. Its purpose is to tell visitors what this person is focused on at this point in their life. I think its a neat idea - mine = https://roylindauer.com/now

One thing though that I really love is seeing people building retro sites like geocities, but actually way better. Has the aesthetic, but are decent and use web standards 😂

Your "Second Brain" is trapped in a Walled Garden. 🚨

Stop treating your knowledge as digital compost! Rewilding the Network means moving from isolated vaults to a **Federated Digital Garden**.

🌱 Why it matters: Compound interest on your learning.

🔗 How it works: Obsidian → RSS → ActivityPub → Serendipity.

We’re building a content-dependent web, not a platform-dependent one. Own your knowledge.

I couldn't find a modern function to check if a font is available on a web page or not. A few hours later: Check if a Font is Available on a Web Page with JavaScript

In the ever going cat and mouse game with AI scrapper bots it seems Anubis is not enough, and use of Cloudflare is warranted. Using Cloudflare results in federation policy issues though. Is there really no cheap anti-AI bot proxy service HQ’d in the EU or otherwise not in the US? Can’t a gal have her money for fun tea and dolls, fight AI, and follow other artists?

These options are sucky:
- Deploy #Cloudflare anti-AI bot shielding. Get defed’d from any artists on MastodonArt or other stuff ran by WelshPixie on top of other instances with a similar policy
- Let all my stuff get slurped up by AI scrapper bots to appease other fediverse instances so I can continue to follow other artists

The site dashboard view now supports editing the build and publish commands! Next step will be to get the welcome wizard out the gate. I’m thinking about maybe doing a bit more refactoring first though.

I love how it’s coming along! #11ty #11tyCMS #indieweb

🎉 It's my #birthday and I've got a new domain name as a gift from my wife. 💕 So, from now on, my blog can be found at https://blog.gridranger.dev

Old links still work and will direct you to the same page.

I'm really happy. I helped others managing their domains from time to time, but I've never had a domain name of my own. It's a great help for staying independent from the tech giants.
