And then there’re personal sites, the house in the forest. It’s the place people escape to when they’re tired of the noise. However personal sites are not isolated islands. They interact and stay connected, using links, mentions, emails, and RSS. It’s a part of the web that moves at a slower pace and that’s a feature, not a bug.
Places on the web
This post was a great reminder that sometimes I try to speed up this blog, and it goes against what it’s really built for. Social media is busy, chaotic, and has a need for continuously feeding it content, because everything fades away in hours or minutes.
But this is something that I’ve built over years, and it’s still here. Inconsistent, still pretty rough around the edges, but it’s not going anywhere.
I do plan to return to the 365 films series, but not trying to make it a daily race.
Having your own little home on the internet may not give you the potential reach or resources of some platforms, but I know who writes this blog. I don’t put anything up here that I don’t believe in at that moment. And I don’t allow Nazis or TERFs into my house.
