Reclaiming RSS
“Before Twitter, before algorithmic timelines filtered our reality for us, before surveillance capitalism, there was RSS: Really Simple Syndication … As we move away from the centralised web to the peer web, it’s time to rediscover, re-embrace, and reclaim RSS.”
Account deletion enabled on `userSettings` branch of Archivatory. Should have that merged to master and then live in prod in a few days. #ipfs 🤓

It has occurred to me that to become an expert on something, all you really have to do is live with it.
People at work sometimes ask me how I have so many random tips on tiny edge cases of this or that. It's because I use this stuff every day. I don't go home to Windows or Mac. I live and work on Linux, using open source tools. You get really familiar with these things after 365*N days of use.
Thank you Bootstrap for making a FREE resource that I can use to make my #opensource projects look visually appealing. I am awful at digital design and what you offer makes everything look so clean.
User account creation with password hashing (and salting) works! Now to make it look pretty... 😅 #ipfs #archivatory #contentcreators
Officially have my first live project out in the wild!
"A 'defect attractor' of a program, language, API, or any other kind of software construct is a feature which, while possibly not bad in itself, spawns defects in the design or #code near it."
I'm gonna add dat:// and gopher:// to linkable protocols in toots. IPFS hasn't decided on a URI format yet, I don't think anything else needs this treatment?
Dang do I hate #CSS...
(might be that I hate doing web design and not CSS)
The #xmpp server is live @ hackerculture.us with a sweet chat room called hc-general to get us started!
OMG it actually, finally, really works! #xmpp 💪 🤓 😅
Wow Prosody is not playing nice... 🤔
