Around the web (week of 16 February 2026)
I had forgotten my practice of compiling weekly notes. I want to get back to it. This week, I have been reading about the IndieWeb. I will explain the thoughts and motivations that led me down this rabbithole another time.
For now, I will just compile some resources that I will want to refer back to.

Other tools

Codeberg, a Git hosting alternative

#giveupgithub, for making a case to give up github. I have largely given up github since 2019-20 due to their partnerships with ICE. I now use gitlab. But perhaps an open source alternative for personal work is even better.
-
Hugo paper mod, maybe something to use in the future. What theme am I using on this Jekyll site, I wonder?
