    "I’m not the only one. Personal sites are coming back. RSS feeds are coming back. Webrings are coming back. People are remembering that a website can be a home or a place instead of a profile."

    The Boring Internet

    The internet you grew up on isn't dying. A commercial veneer glued on top of it is. A visual essay about the protocols, federations, and quiet machinery underneath everything you actually use.

    Yessss @tg - this echoes what I've been thinking lately, but put in much more depth and eloquence than I could have managed.

      @sarajw @tg You know what The Boring Internet does well too? Work in Reader Mode, or being sent to you e-reader with a click of a button.

      I like "boring"

            @sarajw @tg there's so much amazing stuff to go through, and I don't want to miss any - my bookmarks are full of cool stuff. When I have time and motivation.. haha - but I did start writing some, it's tough to resist making a whole site for a reference, but so many of those exist - I think it's mostly about organizing what I have and trying to not make the blog post too long, but also avoiding perfection and eventually to just pump it OUT! 😂

              @jake4480 @tg also a blog post, or a page on a website, doesn't have to be perfect or even finished on first posting. Make it a living document!

                @sarajw @tg that's true. I've actually been thinking about changing around the links of https://oldtimeywebportal.neocities.org some to reflect it, too.

                    @jake4480 @sarajw @tg Get that sorted with a Beer and Bread category, and you're all set, brother! Surely you've shown this to me before, but I forgot to bookmark it... ;>)

                      @oldrup @sarajw @tg Good and well but I take the view that if you need to switch to Reader mode then there must be something wrong with the website. Failed to just keep it simple.

                        @sarajw @tg I feel, as we reclaim the net with "our" sites, strong firewalls that block them and their tools are essential. There is no reason for google to be poking around my site, so it and all their ilk are summarily blocked. Humans are welcome, broligarchs and their enshitifications are not.

                          @sarajw @tg Yes, there's even a new iteration of GeoCities called 'NeoCities'.
