  • There's some nice indie-web oriented tutorials I've come across on YouTube, but I started with the classic copy pasting from w3schools :P It also helps to use inspect element in your browser on the sites you like, helps get a better idea on how things work.

    I'm too young to know what things we're like in MySpace times but I can only imagine the resources have only gotten easier to find :)

  • This has been my favourite part of the internet for the past few years since i discovered it.

    For those interested, most people make their sites on Neocities, as mentioned by OP - though I personally prefer Nekoweb. Both are great places to get started for free though, you can't go wrong with either.

    The basic HTML and CSS you'll need to know is quite simple and fun to learn, so even if you don't continue maintaining your site, I think it's a really good creative exercise.

    If you do get involved in the community, it's a really fun way to get to know‎ people, (whether like-minded or not so like-minded) and a great creative outlet!

    My website isn't as fancy as some of the indie sites I've seen,‎ but it's been a really fun thing to come back to on occasion and use as a creative outlet.

    I'd love to see some other people here's sites!

  • I can't speak for coffee as I've never drank it, but the Oatly oat milk goes great in hot chocolate, super nice and creamy

  • What are your hot takes on food culture?

  • since when was ketchup on hotdogs considered unusual!? i thought that was normal my whole life!

  • What happens when everyone just moves from discord to the public matrix server?

    Jump

  • big fan of matrix here,‎ im not sure itll last but id be happy if it did. it might be a bit overwhelming for the matrix‎.org instance though. hopefully more servers will be popping up and people can move to them

    btw my favourite client, Commet, does have GIF search built-in

    edit to add, you do need to enable it in the "General" settings

  • Are You Emotionally Prepared To Die?

    Jump

  • heck no. ive got so many people that i love and as much as i think they shouldnt, they love me back. im hopeful that my life improves, and im figuring out how to be and enjoy being myself. im figuring out how to express myself to people and through art. im discovering music that makes me feel good. and again, the people i love so much and who love me so much.

    im never gonna make it happen myself and im kinda scared that somethings gonna make me die
