Welcome to my personal homepage.

  • Has anyone had experience of setting up Protonmail SMTP Bridge on a linux server?

    I’m specifically wanting to set it up for use as an SMTP relay in YUNOhost.

  • Transfered from my old server to using Yunohost. Migrated my wordpress site, db and plugins over. So hopefully I dont break anything now :S

  • Is there a list of all the popular weekly hashtags?

    Fediverse reactions

  • Those fediverse stats on the WordPress dashboard are really nice. Great addition.

  • I wasn’t receiving any notification from a mention on mastodon. Turns out I had to edit config in my server’s postfix settings. Works a charm now.

    Fediverse reactions

  • Wow the Friends plugin for WordPress has really had some polish. The mastodon theme is great too!

    Fediverse reactions

  • I’ve decided to switch back to WordPress. This was based on the strength of 2 plugins I really want to be using again: “Friends” and “ActivityPub”.

    i miss the connection to other people and the interactions I used to have off of the back of some of my posts and gaming photos.

  • The Human-made sites webring

    — “Webring”, you say?

    — Yes. A webring.

    Those things from the late 90’s/early 00’s where real people with real websites connected via a linking mechanism known as a webring.

    Well, it’s not so much of a mechanism as a list of websites that link between each other in a chain.

    So you could land on one which would say it’s a part of a given webring, along with a “next”, “previous” and sometimes “random” site.

    So you could easily discover other websites that share common values.

    Human made.

    My idea came a few weeks ago to try and join together people who had real websites and blogs who were against using ai slop in their writing.

    That’s to say, it’s not a case of judging people who use AI to accomplish certain tasks. But it is a conscious decision to collect together people who vouch to not churn out AI slop in their posts.

    Keep it real.

    Keep it human.

    If you have a website/blog, and want to join a slowly-growing community of people online who prefer the web stayed human-centered, then come along to human-made.site and join us. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Back and forth

    — Right, that’s it. I’m getting annoyed with the block editor. I’m switching to ClassicPress

    Two months pass.

    Slightly missing the fact that my posts appear in the fediverse via the excellent activitypub plugin for WordPress.

    — Okay. I’m gonna switch back to WordPress.

    Sees that the next version of WordPress is merging in a whole load of ai-related features.

    *smh*

    — Fuck this! I’m going back to ClassicPress for good. Nothing is worth mixing with the slop machines.
