I really like personal homepages and have quite a list of them bookmarked. I'll post one every week until I don't or unless I fall behind this schedule. 😉 So here's Cool Personal Homepages #CPHP Vol. 14: starbreaker.org https://starbreaker.org/
I've spent a lifetime making myself smaller for everyone.
Making myself the version of me that was most useful and comfortable for everyone around me.
And I *HAVE* to stop before I disappear.
I wrote about learning to TAKE UP SPACE: https://fromemily.com/space-taking-defiance/
Maybe you've made yourself smaller too? Let's TAKE UP SPACE together.

Hi. I'm terrified.
I've been trying to make my own space on the web for years. And I've been stuck. Badly.
But today is my birthday. And I refuse to let another year pass without putting something—anything—out there.
So here it is in all its messy glory. My first post on my barely-there #website: https://fromemily.com/hi-im-terrified/
It's not great. But it's okay...enough.
And I hope it means something to someone.

I'm so unbelievably addicted to the #Indieweb / #smallweb.
To feed my addiction, I have found yet another search machine that finds non-commercial sites. Send help! https://marginalia-search.com/explore
All your personal sites are SO COOL. Drop yours below, please! twitch twitch
I can't stress enough how much I agree with this:
"If you’re a hair salon, or a tattoo artist, or a restaurant, or whatever, please just have a fucking website where I can go and see your rates and hours. Not all of your potential clients are on these [social media] platforms, and I suspect that even many of the ones who are appreciate a simple, unadorned site that tells them what they need to know at a glance."

Eev (and lisp secret alien technology) made it /really/ easy and convenient to generate a kitten matching @aral's Tutorial 2: dynamic pages, https://kitten.small-web.org/tutorials/dynamic-pages/ serve it and visit it inside emacs (just press F8 over and over again and it happens on its own).
I guess you can do it too...? What do you think? How much of a Hurkle itch is this giving you Aral ;p. It seems /really/ easy to get a fancy! #tls site up like this.
Oh I'm loving this old school Yahoo directory vibe. Thanks @adam
Also did AI just ruin the term vibe? I can't vibe anymore, can I. A sad, vibeless day.

Kinda rushed, but I show the kitten server operator and kitten visitors interacting in real time (the kitten visitor by hitting a kitten page, the kitten server operator by reading and setting kittendb values in the kitten shell).
What do you think @mdhughes @aral
Obviously the kitten host will be robotic, but I thought this is a useful half-interaction to see.
Kagi's algorithms prioritize organic, non-commercial sources over ad-heavy or tracker-riddled sites. This really helps to surface unique, human-generated content from smaller blogs, authentic sites and forums.

I am learning about the #smallWeb with curiosity 🕸️ 😃

Ok, people, give me your blogs.
Your personal hobby blogs. Your e-zines. Your websites. Heck, even your wikis. (I am interested in those but have not yet wrapped my head around them.)
I am most interested in the hobby sites, made my non-professional web devs. The ones you code away at in your spare time. Preferably static, but share anyway if it's not. And if you're a pro and have a personal hobby site, share away too! The more the merrier.
Even if I already know your site, share anyway because there might be people who do not have come across it yet.
3, 2, 1, go!

I am pretty new to this #SmallWeb thingy. I have know tried to publish a small personal page through #Github Pages. With the aim to gradually turn away from Big Tech Social Media.
Planning to learn more about self hosting.
New version of #SmolFedi, a lightweight, no-JavaScript Fediverse client written in PHP. It respects #smolweb specs.
It works fine with all basic browser such as #netsurf So you can access Fediverse on #retro computer have a basic browser (need cookies feature).
You can install it on a simple web server with php8.x / pdo_sqlite / php_curl
https://codeberg.org/adele/smolfedi
Test it on https://smolfedi.pollux.casa/ and log to all your fediverse instances (tested on #gotosocial and #mastodon). You can connect to multiple account and switch between them easily.
New at my blog, a review of JANGAR!: Slaves of the Mind Mage, the first in a series of monthly Sword & Sorcery novelettes by Logan D. Whitney.
Familiar ingredients, but served up with gusto; JANGAR is an S&S snack!

Hey fediverse! Question for those of you who have their own website (and don't mind being anonymously quoted):
What do you like about having a personal website?
New at my blog, a review of Merynthia’s Master, a Sword & Sorcery (Spice & Sorcery?) novella by Luana Saitta!
Sorcery-filled adventure in a vibrant city setting with appealing characters and a healthy streak of romance. Maybe a fitting read for Pride Month, too?
