Been using Bear Blog for a few years now and it’s been very cool as a small static blog platform.
No excess menus, no ad junk. An enjoyable experience all around.
Attempting to be creative at various things at various times, for example: #Filmmaking, #CreativeWriting, #GraphicDesign, etc.
Let’s make a better world together! (In a neato fun awesome way that is. Not in a Weyland-Yutani way.)

Haven’t upgraded myself, so I just use the web client or the official iOS app so far.
Got too much going on and my own server shenanigans going on at the moment but I just wanted to say that this is all dang wholesome. Kudos all around folks! 🤗
Not to flagrantly self promote but that’s what I did with neocities. Used it as a static linktree alternative:
(Again, provided as an example, not “look at me”.)

Looks like it’ll add some fun stuff for people who play on Realms via consoles/mobile.
Interesting. Will give it a look. Thanks!
Yeah. Surely they’ll listen, one of these years… 🤪 Might be a while yet now that they’ve got their fancy new “AI” toys to play with.
Always looking for an alternative…
Beans… I was afraid of that, had hoped my search skills were just letting me down. Thanks though!
“We put ChatGPT into this hammer!”
“Why?”
“FIRST!”
I mean either he’s just the stupidest or this is all intentional and he wanted to kill Twitter in the first place. Either way, fudge him and his weird face.
Damn shrinkflation.
Hehe. All good. Pretty sure I’ve done the same thing a time or two. here in the Lemmy-verse.
Ha! Okay, it’s not just me then… 🤪
Neocities (mentioned in the article) is a pretty cool throwback site for making your own simple webpages. I used it for a coding exercise to make my own personal version of a Linktree thing.
Bear blog (link) is also simple and neat for simple un-corporate internet-ing.
“It’s tempting to say we’re stepping into a new world where all forms of media cannot be trusted,”…
Yes, we are and it’s shit for the human mind to have to constantly do a double take on everything to make sure it’s actually real.
“but in fact, we’re being given further proof of what was always the case: Recorded media has no intrinsic truthfulness, and we’ve always judged the credibility of information from the reputation of the messenger.”
Sure subjectivity, biases, and other factors skew things, that’s a thing. But I’m sorry, “Any information humanity has ever preserved in any format is worthless.”, is quite the fucking claim.
