If a thief doesn’t want your cheap tech, is it really worthless? I think not.

Exploring the indie web and finding the COOLEST personal websites! by LuvstarKei IRL

A task that I'm thinking about: A way to keep my web content and Gemini content in sync without having to write them separately.
Note: If you came across this post by searching the Gemni hashtag, and you're looking for Google's Gemini AI topics, GTFO. The Gemini I'm referring to is a smallnet protocol similar to Gopher, not some GenAI monstrosity.
Cornerstone v1.0.7! Social icons in author bios now render as beautiful circular buttons. Supports Mastodon, Bluesky, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram, GitHub & 17+ platforms. Auto-detects from URL. Dark mode built in. #WordPress #IndieWeb

A thoughtful post today from Laurens Hof in the Fediverse Report about Mastodon’s new CEO and the project’s sustainability. It’ll be interesting to look back a year from now on whether there are visible changes. Hope in the meantime that Eugen Rochko gets some rest and a vacation or two.
Having minimally built https://xmit.co https://onclebob.com I'm thinking about the rest of the static web authoring experience, particularly around #11ty, and realize I know very little of its ecosystem. Are there project bootstrap(per)s? Abstractions for templates and/or themes? Web admins/editors, maybe with something akin to https://stackedit.io/ and a live iframe preview? The more I find the less I build. A goal for myself: have something my family finds pleasant to use to build (at least) microsites. Still a long way to go on many fronts. #indieweb
I think this will be popular. Will make it free for everyone, not locked down in a premium feature.
Surely some of you want to try Pagecord? Stop faffing about with that static site that you never post to. Pagecord will make you blog more!

Ok ok, I give in. I've relented. The forces of capitalism are too strong for my weak mind. And I could really do with the business.
If you're considering Pagecord Premium and you'd like a Black Friday offer to seal the deal, here you go https://blog.pagecord.com/black-friday-special-offer-for-pagecord-premium
Soupault 5.2.0 is out: https://soupault.net/blog/soupault-5.2.0-release/
It fixes a major regression that broke auto-generated pages (those generated by index processors) if they were to be saved to a directory that didn't already exist (thanks to Yiming Xiang for pointing that out).
It also adds a new plugin function: Sys.strip_extension()
Hey if you're after a new years reso, can i pitch: make an online diary.
At the end of the year you can gather everything up into a stats page and it feels really nice.

**“The Haunted Lighthouse Ltd is officially lit.
A small, quiet corner of the internet — built slowly, run properly, and always privacy-first.
Hosting, open-source infrastructure, and calm social spaces from our Manx outpost.
More soon. The beacon is on.

"500 Colours" has been one of my favourite little web resources for years. It's just a list of colours, but if you have a vague idea of what colours you want to use, this can really help to solidify that idea.
