I also changed my website configuration toward more private setup in terms of traffic tracking.

I invite you to read the blog 🫢🏻
It’s so fun to return to old format of personal blogs

Happy Halloween!

I have released 2026.10.01-alpha of #ArtMenagerie

Ensure your changes are seen with cache busting! Also, rendering has been seen a major rework and an important fix for new websites.

I wrote up the full story of Persistwise on the blog. Most of us don't lose writing because we're careless. We lose it because the web is a rental, and the Wayback Machine only saves what someone asks it to save.

So Persistwise asks every time. It reads your RSS feed every 15 minutes and keeps three copies of each new post: a Wayback snapshot, an IPFS pin, and a saved copy.

HWC Edinburgh - September 30

Gonna head out on a dune walk shortly. Feel like having a ramble whilst I ramble. If you’re about in a bit, I’ll be live on my site for a podcast. If you miss it, no bother.

This is the sort of thing the Internet should be made of.

The Indieweb is great!

#fediverse@mastodon.social: The web used to be a collection of weird, passionate personal blogs built by people who just wanted to share things they loved.

No tracking pixels.

No endless algorithmic rage-bait.

No subscription paywalls for basic human thought.

We can actually build that back. Small web, local communities, open protocols.

Boost if you miss the old internet. 🌐✨

Once again #Youtube’s AI moderation has gone rogue and banned a a popular #vtuber, removing 6 years worth of content, despite the person in question having no warnings or strikes against their account.

The Moderator bot has summarily dismissed their review request without any human review.

And this is not the first time, nor will it be the last.

It shows the dangers of monopolies, and youtube has it in terms of recorded creator content.

Given that the YT Moderator bot seems to regularly target certain minorities, I am still surprised that these groups have not considered rolling out their own video-on-demand service like Peertube where they can control their own content,but I appreciate the reality is doing that costs money and advertising opportunities are harder, whereas YT will pay you for content through advertising with little effort.

I really wish that there were more Youtube alternatives out there that were β€œmainstream” enough to be able to be viable.

Also I recently wrote a blog post about how I've had chronic pain so I haven't been as active. But I'm getting better! I will try to post more often. https://pixelglade.net.au/blog/posts/2026-10-28-I-Have-A-Chronic-Pain-Condition.html

i keep thinking about How you could possibly introduce normal people to the concept of having your own website in the year 2026 and in the end i keep settling on ehhh most people wouldn't have had their own site in the year 2006 anyway. But there are clearly a lot of young 'non-tech'* who do love y2k and #smallweb aesthetics that come with it. it just takes so much more effort than using social media though

*i don't work in tech either, but i'm thinking about likeβ€”even introducing my writer coworker to something basic like #bearblogβ€”she's never had to:
1. markup text for formatting
2. use an external image host
3. optimize image size
4. edit css for customization

how would you suggest all that and then be like btw, this doesn't have a built-in comment section or newsletter and your friends can't follow you except by using #RSS for which they have to install another app

and that's the simplest option of the #indieweb! unless i recommend blogspot
