I'm hesitant to participate in most "indie" web projects since my homepage is made with carrd and I'm mostly a fandom blogger, but honestly I thought this was a really interesting way to just present a directory of personal websites almost at random.

I've submitted mine for 42x42 (iykyk), so I guess we'll see if I get it lol

@dev I'm sure there's a way to do it, since I've seen some people use github issues or discussions as comments systems.

You might want to check out micropub servers as well. I run a microblog that's literally just an html page, and a netlify "serverless" function that receives submissions from a micropub client and converts them to html that gets inserted into the page at a specific target. It works with a github token so I think something similar could be setup with gitea and a small micropub server. You could probably have it automatically commit hugo md files.

I've never used git properly before (was always just using the web UI on GitHub) and omg some of the options in VScode are so confusing...

I thought I had lost all my work, but it switched to main instead of staying on the branch I was working on???

Luckily I didn't actually lose anything.

I didn't manage to preorder this from merry manga and now I'm wondering if I need to order it separately from a different store since backorders aren't open for seven seas and yen press books :opusoppcry:

@dev I resubmitted my comment (on desktop)! I don't know why it wasn't working, but I was on firefox mobile if that helps. and I didn't see an error message at all, I just pressed the post button on the comment on mobile and it didn't submit.

@BabaIsYou@mastodon.gamedev.place

Warning! There are currently at least 2 scam websites posing as Baba Is You merch stores (babaisyou .shop & babaisyou .store) that will probably steal personal info. Fangamer is the only official site for Baba merch. I'm not sure how much I can do to contest the sites atm but I'll look at my options

@dev hi, I submitted a comment on your recent blog post about TV, but I wasn't sure if my comment actually sent successfully? I pressed the button but nothing changed.

If it ended up submitting several times that was definitely unintended 🫣

Honestly solving this problem with my monthly book posts was one of the reasons I made the reading tracker site. Now I can just link to a specific month, and you can see all the links to the blog posts and even the reading progress on each book!

Seems like overkill but it was super tedious, sometimes the monthly fedi post took me 30 minutes to get all the links and info together.

I was inspired recently after someone asked me about why I didn’t have an Instagram, to make a four page comic on why. I'm not going back to Instagram.

Maybe I can just hand this out if people ask me now.

"Do You Have an Instagram by Jey Pawlik" comic page 1. The comic is black and white with halftones. While at an event with a lot of folks milling around, Jey talks with another person. The two were talking before the comic began and the person says "~ oh cool! You do comics?" Jey happily responds "Yeah, I even have books!" The person asks "Do you have an Instagram?" This surprises Jey, and their smile leaves their face as they reply "Uh, no. I don't. Sorry." The person looks worried and says "Wha-- Why not?!" Jey shrugs it off and says "It's a long story." The person is curious and asks "What happened?" Narration over a black background: "Sometimes a decade's worth of posts, art, followers and comments are just taken right from under you without notice."

"Do You Have an Instagram by Jey Pawlik" comic page 2. The comic is black and white with halftones. A black panel with white text. Narration: And you lose all trust in platforms, because YOU don't own anything. Jey and Max get home with suitcases in hand and look well rested. Jey says "We're back!" and Max says "Two weeks without internet was heaven!" Jey laughs as they sit at their computer and say "Gotta see how many emails I gotta sift through! haha" The panel turns dark as Jey looks more closely at their computer screen. An email from Instagram has appeared and reads: Instagram Take action or lose access to jeypawlik Hi jeypawlik, Your account has been suspended. This is because your account, or activity on it, does not follow our Terms of Use. If you think this was a mistake, you have until December 19, 2023 to appeal.

"Do You Have an Instagram by Jey Pawlik" comic page 3. The comic is black and white with halftones. Jey is holding their head, terrified they say "How? What?! This has to be a mistake!" From Instragram: Reason: Automated Bot-Like Behavior Jey's hands start falling down their cheeks as they read the reasoning. They say "My account wasn't hacked. My activity is clean." A big "Appeal" button appears above Jey and their mouse clicks on it. They nervously look at their computer screen saying "It's just a mistake, right?" The Instagram appeal form reads: Provide your Personal Info: Full Name Instagram username Registered email address Attach Identification: For individual accounts, take a clear photo of yourself holding a handwritten sign with your full name and Instagram username. At the bottom is a "Submit" button. Jey looks tired and frustrated as they take a selfie with the info Instagram asked for. A new email comes in from Instagram that reads: Hi jeypawlik, We reviewed your account and found that it still doesn't follow our Terms of Use. As a result, your account has been permanently disabled. Learn how our Terms of Use help keep the Instagram community an authentic and respectful place for people to express themselves. Jey is in utter shock as the words "PERMANENTLY DISABLED" are huge an intimidating behind them.

"Do You Have an Instagram by Jey Pawlik" comic page 4. The comic is black and white with halftones. Jey is angry and throwing their hands down as they exclaim "But I did everything they asked!" They explode, raising their hands above them in rage. They say "Bot-like behaviour?! How could a bot give a selfie with my name and handle?!" Note: this story takes place before AI was a thing. Jey, at their computer, shows the meta-suite on their screen and says "All I did was use their stupid META suite to schedule posts" a note above the screen reads "THEY MADE THIS!" Jey collapses onto the ground and their spouse rubs their back. Jey, defeated, says "I hate social media." Time passes with a large gap between panels. Jey is at another gathering, much like the one on the first page and is chatting with someone. The person asks "Oh cool! You do comics? Do you have an Instagram?" Jey grins and has a new response, saying "No, but you should check out my website instead 'cause I actually own it! And have you heard about RSS?"

My local Target CVS (a pharmacy) introduced a touch screen system where you enter all your details instead of telling the tech.

I honestly like this better because I have an uncommon name and it's a pain in the ass to spell it out for people. I've had people mishear my birthday too, it's annoying.

If they had pickup lockers, it would really complete the self-service model.

I'm not too confident about maintaining my own git forge full time and using it for actions and all the other complicated netlify stuff, but I decided to at least self-host forgejo to backup my code from github. The mirror function makes it really easy to keep them synced.

Forgejo is a self-hosted lightweight software forge. Easy to install and low maintenance, it just does the job.
