🔗 A Guide to Using RSS to Replace Social Media – Luke Smith
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is the best way to keep tabs on things online. While social media sites have tried to replace it, it is still the best way to consoooome content, even on social media sites.
I’ve been trying to do this lately. After trimming my actual YouTube subscriptions, I added the few channels I really care about to my RSS reader.
I had been toying with doing the same for Twitter, glad to see it’s possible albeit with a proxy site 🙄.
But one thing for sure, it’s a much calmer experience. -
🔗 20 Reasons To Quit Social Media
In reality, we hire social media to distract our minds from our unpleasant, average life. And, by faking photos, to convince others, including ourselves, that our life is amazing while internally we are in pain.
* We hire social media to create a virtual representation of the life we want to live, but never actually live it.
* We hire social media to observe the life we want, but never actually experience it.This comment right here is what got me to close my laptop and go out for a run. My reward (beyond energizing me for the day) was this great view of Mt. Fuji with the moon overhead. I naturally posted it to social media.The moon above Mt. Fuji -
🔗 The Geocities Gallery
A restored visual gallery of the archived Geocities sites, sorted by neighborhood.
Amazing. I want to build something like this but for modern sites and blogs. How would you even find sites to register / convince people to "join", even if it's free. -
🔗 Rediscovering the Small Web - Neustadt.fr
I was even more excited to learn that the small web exists today just as it did back when I was a kid. It's just less visible.
Loved this screengrab of Geocities neighborhoods. I love this idea of a collection of sites in a given neighborhood and getting webspace (there’s a term I haven’t used in 20 years).Neighborhoods avialable on Geocities in 1998
It may exist already, but it would be neat to have a modern Indie/Small version of web neighborhoods (naturally still on your own domain/site). Which neighborhood would I settle in? -
🔗 512KB Club
The 512KB Club is an exclusive list of web pages weighing less than 512 kilobytes.
I should add my blog to the 512k club. Confirming I'd quality and noticed I'm loading a gravatar image (likely in my h-card) in 2 different places but not displaying them – I wonder if I can modify that somehow to provide the url but not load a hidden image....
