question for the neocities folks: do you share your website in traditional social media or in real life? what do you think about sharing it/not sharing it?
i share it with everyone i know IRL tbh!! i'm not on any social media anymore. i guess it kind of just depends on if you separate your online identity from your IRL identity. ppl IRL don't really "know" me as "kkb", but i also don't mind telling them that's who i am, and i'm not really trying to conceal my identity, either.
I do share it! but not actively, mostly only if people ask what i'm doing or if i'm on any social media. and i have it listed on my carrd and tumblr, etc etc :)
i do! i'm trying to build up my social media for my music & it's been a real strength in that sense, it helps u stand out. ppl who r interested love the site! those who don't care don't even care to read it... but i do feel like i have to be careful about what i share... the wrong eyes could always read it
Similar to KKB I share it with most people that I know comfortably IRL. It feels more like sharing a scrapbook than a journal, and they mostly only look once. I like to see who sticks around though, I have a few IRL friends who check it regularly. I don't really exist on any other socials, and even if I did I don't think I would feel comfortable sharing this with a large group of people I loosely know.
I've mentioned having a website to a few people IRL, but they didn't ask to see it and I didn't push the conversation in that direction. I'd like to start sharing my writing with people offline, though.
I quite enjoy seclusion... even if we omit that IRLs for me are few and far between this place is its own place, but I have that for socials too. I like my ridges and lines even if it's counterproductive
I've shared my site with close friends and coworkers. I haven't linked it on any social media just yet, though I'd like to do so in the future once I build up my art portfolio... I'm just worried about my site being more visible to bots and bad-faith actors, especially since I have input fields on it.
i have it listed on my tumblr, when i sell at art festivals i usually have whatever website i am using listed. i think its up to every individual person to decide if they want to share it or not! <3
almost no one knows about my site irl, for me that's the whole point to have a separate space online from people from facebooks and such. I don't really want to show my silly stuff like some drawings from 20 years ago to people that I know from work or school xd I might share something only if it's actually useful or well written, but even then, on different domain, neocities is my sandbox for cringe coding!
similar w/ lankarta, i prefer to keep my url [largely english] and irl [largely estonian] existences/personas separate so i haven't shared about my site in local offline contexts, but i do have the link on most/all my socials - though not feeling as strongly about the separation now, maybe because of having been able to move out from my parents' this year & all...
I share my website mostly via email to people that I already know, and the portion that I share is a closed loop. They could navigate elsewhere on the website, but I don't think they have any reason to. Other than the traditional music stuff, I only share things via directly linking my friends to them. I don't consider there to be anything wrong with open invitations to view websites, but mine's super incomplete.

I share it on ig and twt. The only person irl who knows about it is my sister, as far as I know.

I don't really share my website with anyone! Whoever finds it finds it.
no one irl knows i have it, not even my closest friends. it's like a separate life that i have here?

I post some updates to sm, and share my sites with friends and (some) family.
