Just so you know, I plan on more book reviews in a bit, I think a have the perfect book to relaunch book reviews (The Pearl by John Steinbeck).

That’s great, although I passed you comment on to Toriaz who dislikes Steinbeck’s writing to the point that I can’t print here what she says about him. If it’s any consolation, she’s not fond of The Great Gatsby either. I never minded Steinbeck. Hope you enjoy it.

ok i read this (https://www.bikobatanari.art/posts/2023/state-of-neocities) and have to agree... some parts of why i have been enjoying my time here is because the usual dynamics of social media aren't as predominant, but i'm realizing they may have been more prevalent than i previously thought

for example the [person you follow followed x, y, and z] and [new followers] messages are a bit unexpected. especially the latter, since you can't dismiss it

i agree with a lot in this post. i think a lot of the WeB rEvIvAl nostalgia is really forced and misplaced. in the early 2000s not every website was comic sans blinkie hell. a lot of them were very sleek and compact or cute and fun but most importantly well designed in an aesthetic that was cool for the time especially once css came around which was early.

yes, ++ brennholz on what you wrote — as a hobby (and as any hobby), webmastering requires a certain level of effort that may be a barrier for some

the balance is everything, but some folks will want it more heavily leaned to one side or another

I am here because I can't stand my other social media accounts, especially Instagram. People posting their own pictures and other people commenting on them like its the beginning and the end of everything. Here, I like the atmosphere of being deliberate, saying something only when you have something worth saying and of not always agreeing with your friends or the popular opinion.

There is no "Internet Renaissance" coming as biko calls it. Many people can't even _afford_ to be away from social media these days. Most people don't have the time to make their niche sites to express themselves; they have much more important things to do. Even if they do something creative they like to flaunt it on FB/IG for fame.

The craft of making small websites, and more importantly maintaining them over the years, is challenging. Do not rue that so many sites are not updated frequently. Rejoice that they were made. Someone felt that itch to make it. They no longer have the itch, the time or the energy anymore. But they left a fossil footprint for the rest of us to study.

I think that any social website should be like purgatory. You come in, work out your internal problems and eventually leave. I think we're too used to the idea of walled gardens. We're not captive in one place, eventually everyone has to venture out. I don't really buy the whole 'Web revival' movement thing, mostly because revolutions are really hard to do and you shouldn't trust a bunch of hobbyists with a movement.
