There is no such thing as “uncooperative Mods”, but there is definitely a trend of uncooperative CEO’s thinking people are crap that can be offloaded in the sidewalk for the glory of their dystopian vision of the Internet. #Reddit #Twitter

I'm all for it!

I have been remaking my website lately!

It is squarely situated within the retro web or indie web subculture. Only semantic XHTML and CSS, with link lists, blinkies, tons of gifs, playful designs, shrines, blog posts... Like on #Geocities in the far-gone past! Should be accessible too.

It still ought to be filled with content, but we're getting there.

Here you go:

I hope decentralized open-source social media takes over those that are corporate owned. It's such a breath of fresh air to just communicate with people on a platform that isn't just trying to make money off me.

Here's to reclaiming the internet from corporations 🐘🐘🐘

So if you have not seen it and are thinking about starting your own blog (or going back to writing there), please check out this really well done site that @ben created recently: https://getblogging.org/

I am talking with my students this week about this topic and it reminded me of an interview I did with Ben a couple years back. Where I definitely have "early pandemic hair"
