changing up the fonts, and mainly changing the 'main' text font throughout the website for the first time! prolly have to tweak every page now but it's worth it

additionally refreshed the little descriptors of the pages on the menu! removed the link for Infinite House because it's been rather sleepy lately and it's more of an offshoot of fakenumberland than a seperate project (despite its minisite being hosted here LOL)

I've been looking around for CC-BY Attribution licensed albums and songs that I could use as background music for livestreams, videos like animations, maybe other projects. I would appreciate any suggestions :>

Music with CC-BY-NC (Non-Commercial) licenses I would rather avoid given most video/streaming sites (besides internet archive) frequently put commercial ads on non-monetized videos anyways, it feels too close for comfort IMO. CC-BY-SA (Share Alike) is more of a case-by-case basis for me, depends on the project and personal preference as to Sharing it Alike

honestly while uniqueness in design certainly matters, i feel accessibility takes higher priority over form. maybe not every website will hit every accessibility benchmark, but a unique design only goes so far if it's not, say, screen reader compatible (meaning those who need screen readers can't read it)

for related reasons i kinda balk at mobile hostility in web design. as many understandable gripes we have with smartphones, computers are usually more Expensive and a lot of people may not have the funds to spare to buy one, nor have easy access to public computers. and in my case i wouldn't want people to be shut out from my site just for not being able to use a desktop

you are completely right and it's honestly very saddening how hostile people are on the indieweb to mobile users. A simple "This site is not mobile accessible" would work just fine, but I've come across an uncomfortable number of sites that are like "fuck mobile users" "fuck you for using a mobile". Even if I'm on my desktop I click off immediately, it's such a nasty way to announce how inaccessible your site is

Slightly opposed to the "having a pc is classist" view, i think that buying a refurb laptop for 50 bucks and learning how to use debian on it is an act of resistance which is cheaper than, say, a new smartphone. I 100% agree with the accessibility part, hence my site has a switchable stripped-down mode. >>

But while making things accessible, we gotta keep pushing against smartphonization and not paint computers as something out-of-reach. Don't forget that part of the reason it's happening is cause statistically people make big purchases faster on a small screen, cause a PC is associated with seriousness, while a smartphone is more impulse zone. And companies *love* that

i agree w astrosoundhell 100%... also, i actually made a mobile version of my site because i use it to share my work and i know mobile users will see it, but the truth is that most of us are here because we love building websites for desktop... i dont see why someone should be forced to limit their creativity to a tiny reactangle that doesnt align with their vision of what a website should be

it's not like i think websites shouldn't be mobile accesible, but rather i think it's like trying to accommodate a group of people that just isnt really there? if you're making websites or you're interested in them its probably because you have a computer
