Been rethinking how I read, not just what I read.
Started with a professor’s curated readings → https://faculty.etsu.edu/odonnell/
Then stumbled into personal systems like https://malcolmocean.com/myhabits/From there, it branches:
- What to read → https://agentyduck.blogspot.com/p/noticing.html
- How to interpret → The Great Gatsby essays (Atlantic / NYT revisiting it 100 years later)
- How to create → https://thecreativeindependent.com/guides/how-to-make-a-book/
- And even: what blogging looks like in 10 years → https://blog.ericgoldman.org/archives/2025/04/blogiversary-what-will-this-blog-look-like-in-10-years-part-10-of-10.htmPattern I’m seeing:
Reading isn’t consumption — it’s a system:
curation → interpretation → creation → reflection.Most people stop at step one.

What are people’s experiences with #digitalgardens If you have one, do you use it for your own reference often? Have you made friends through it? Does it help you write / accomplish some other task?
Looking to hear from folks who have abandoned their gardens as well please

The pushback I received made me think about a way to re-clarify my message about digital gardens. The last thing I want people to think is that one is better than the other. I rather communicate the freedom digital gardening has given me, and how I've written so much more since taking this approach to writing for the web.

CW: 2023 (Personal)
Goal:
Untangle my computer use from any commercial/capitalist presets...https://xkcd.com/743/
https://mastodon.social/@mcc/109683380376727036For 2023 a #LibreComputer AML-S905X-CC (#LePotato) (2GB) is my personal base level hardware platform
Anything I develop/make has to be usable on the current base level hardware platform

"A useful frame of mind is thinking about your computer as offline first. You work with your computer and occasionally have network access. This usually means having data locally and occasionally synchronizing it with others."
#LocalFirst #OfflineFirst
#FrugalComputing #SustanableComputing #NetZeroComputingExpect to run zsh, X11, openbox(?), Emacs, terminal, neomutt, newsboat, mastodon?, tor, i2p?
Test if Gnome is usable... ? xfce? CDE? is GnuStep still active? no desktop?
Get used to do #Email, #UseNet, #Gopher, #IRC, #RSS in #terminal or #Emacs
Use #Emacs and #TeΧ to write (dead tree) letters and missives (PDF?)
Maybe do more in #RawText?
Do callender things again on paper/pencil, #43folders, Whiteboard, etc.. physical things
Expand use of Gopher, Gemini, IndieWeb?
IM.. #XMPP via Dino? +OMEMO
Find a sustainable open source alternative for keybase? Or develop a distributed alternative using tor or i2p? Trust via FOAF?
Develop in #Pascal, #Lisp, #Ruby, #Haskell, #Scheme, #Forth :D
Keep repositories in #mercurial,
maybe source hut?Find an #anonymous #pseudonymous hosting solution... shell account?... like rawtext.club, tildeverse.org, sdf.org .. ...my own?
Get a low power #amd64 box? bc too many FOSS projects are still not platform independent & x86 only v.v
Optimize to run many VMs?
Maybe can run #android in VM and run banking, insurance, and other apps there? Otherwise maybe get an used M1 mac and run the #iOS apps? perhaps some <100 euro android phones will do as well? otherwise get an iPad mini and use that for the next 5-6 yrs
Maybe set up a #FileServer (#NAS?) maybe even network boot? and perhaps even a #Postgresql database? Is having SQL DB available on the local network going to be useful? What about other databases?

Bring #DigitalGardens to the "#TheDarkNet" and set up basecamp there, #tor onion services, a p2p chat/IM app, etc.. also explore #i2p and see how to simplify using it.
#DigitalHome?
(Tilde?)Get back into #AI (but forget Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Innocence?) I want Augmented Intelligencekm
Explore as many other fun projects as well ... Who knows, I might like them and use them more often...
eg: #Guix #FreeBSD #OpenBSD #NetBSD #Minix #RiscV #Plan9 (#9Front) #RedoxOS #SmallTalk (#Pharo) #GoLang #RetroComputing #System7 #RiscOS #HaikuOS #Forth #Microcontrollers #68K #MIPS #PowerPC #HomeBrewComputer——
