It’s been a while… but how about a new #OwnYourWeb newsletter issue, going out tomorrow? 😊

I have finished a new personal web project: a place to share my photos. 🥳

What you can expect: some hopefully entertaining stories and pictures.

What’s in it for me: a new creative outlet!

💡Tip: own your Web, own your URLs!

For example, I always share `maximepinot.com/mastodon` instead of the URL of my current instance. Same for LinkedIn, GitHub, etc.

Thanks @matthiasott for the constant reminder to use the modern possibilities in web development and to own our web. 🙌 Inspiring start for day two at @btconf – #btconf #OwnYourWeb #personalWebsites

Prototyping … 😉 #OwnYourWeb

So, jetzt ist es passiert… der 1. Tag eines neuen Monats ist ein guter Launch Tag. Ich habe mein kleines #hugo basiertes #Blog an den Start gebracht und mit ein paar ersten Inhalten versehen. Ihr findet es unter: https://today-i-learned.de.

Habt ein wenig Geduld, ich schreibe schon an weiteren Beiträgen, die kommen dann bald. 😇

Restarted my Pixelfed server (sorry for losing your comments!), and this time I've cleaned up empty title fields in the Instagram export json file before importing, and I've started at the first photos.

(Also, note to self: give the queues enough time to process everything!)

Got my Kirby license and Kirby on a server behind basic auth, finishing up the last bits and setting up the content syncing and stuff.

And then I want to fix some issues with mobiles before I go live! Very excited, and very very much looking forward to the relaunch.

🔗 Just saved: „X's Objection to the Onion Buying InfoWars Is a Reminder You Do Not Own Your Social Media Accounts“

Just fucked up, really.

#x #ownyourweb

"What is interesting is that X has decided to involve itself at all, and it highlights that you do not own your followers or your account or anything at all on corporate social media, and it also highlights the fact that Elon Musk’s X is primarily a political project he is using to boost, or stifle, sp https://www.404media.co/xs-objection-to-the-onion-buying-infowars-is-a-reminder-you-do-not-own-your-social-media-accounts/

After the newsletter issue is before the newsletter issue.

But I’d like to know: what would you like to read about in #OwnYourWeb? What do you struggle with when it comes to your personal site? The design? The code? The writing? Something else, entirely?

Aus gegebenem Anlass und im Sinne von #ownyourweb habe ich meine Webseite upgedated mit #Hugo #SSG so dass künftig via #MarkDown und #git-basiert gebloggt werden kann:

Bald auch ein Artikel zum Workflow dazu.

@fuuma Not that weird but 100% handwriten homebrew website https://villapirorum.netlify.app where you can inspect server-side source code (before homemade static site compilation). Also has its gemini counterpart !

#ownyourweb #personalwebsite !

What are examples of fantastic *home pages* of personal websites? 😍 Any site that really stuck with you? And why?

And what’s some useful advice regarding a great “home” that you would give someone building their site?

I’m asking on behalf of my #OwnYourWeb #newsletter subscribers = sharing is caring 🤗💚

It’s been a while since the last issue of #OwnYourWeb. There was a lot of work-related and private stuff that lead to me postponing it for far too long. But now, the next issue is almost ready and will gently flutter into your inbox next weekend … 📫

Updated my blogroll from a list of blogs to include some screenshots of the websites.

First image is the before, the other three the after. ✨

Generative AI is theft

I’m receiving emails from meta that they’re going to use everything I’ve ever posted and shared on Facebook and Instagram to train their generative AI.

They will steal and exploit everything we’ve ever shared on Facebook and Instagram.

Generative AI doesn’t create anything. It simply computed the average from a massive set of inputs, after some very clever filtering.

Generative AI is basically automated plagiarism.

It is theft — theft of intellectual property on an industrial scale.
