FR3AK

ADVENTURES IN WEBMASTERY

As you can see, I have a shiny new website and gemini capsule here. If you have somehow figured out who I am, you may be wondering "Why the hell do they need another one?". Well, to tell you the truth, I don't. However, my first site was difficult to maintain, my second was a bit boring, and my old gemini capsule is at maximum capacity thanks to all the images I've been storing on it. I also wanted something a bit smaller and snappier, so I went all out.


I started by making a new account for sourcehut, under a new username. I had heard that you could use sourcehut pages to host both websites and gemini capsules, so I decided to kill two birds with one stone. I then bought a domain from Namecheap, added it to deSEC, and coding away I went. I actually got so into the coding that I forgot to eat yesterday, which hasn't happened before.


But what's a queer, lefty, FOSS-loving retro blog without services? For the past couple of days, I have been fighting with DigitalOcean to get a couple of useful web apps hosted; and my desire to do this goes back even further. You see, despite the three two services (SearXNG and Miniflux and Librarian) already being available eleswhere on the net, I have found too many minor annoyances with those instances.



There are a few other services I'd like to host: Invidious, Nitter, redlib, Terraforming Mars, Tootik; but either these didn't work, required more resources than I'm currently paying for, or weren't available on Yunohost in the first place. There's always time, though.


I don't write a lot, so I have no idea how to end this. See ya!
