I copied all my fonts from my Windows laptop to my BSD laptop and I've never been happier. Believe it or not *fonts* were the penultimate hurdle (the final hurdle, of course, is how am I going to get my 1200 DPI scans without the proprietary software??)

This article has been a long time coming. Enjoy my complaints about Neocities websites, and my proposals on what to do.

I was surprised at the resurgence of splash pages. Thought I saw the last of that sort of things 20 years ago.

Thank you for useful ideas!! Happy to see people having different opinions on neocities/nekoweb communities and I have some same pet peeves like ya, especially the DNI and eyestrain (Sometimes), so still thank you for tell it out, I'm still thinking about make a mobile version for my personal website.

Exactly why I got rid of my splash page, it was starting to annoy *me* (who I assume is the most frequent visitor to my webpage), and I thought, what even is the point of this thing? So I got rid of it a few months ago. All your other tips/ideas are useful as well, thanks for publishing this ^^

I don't want to learn Japanese to watch anime or even to read lyrics. I want to read Hara Hara Tokei and become a guerilla warrior in 2025

It's still funny that this was said when the EAAJAF were all about attacking civilians over "if you're not with us, you're against us!" mentality and so on. I find myself so fascinated by 60s~70s Japanese far leftism, especially the New Left and EAAJAF, and that alone is worth the studying so I can do good personal research!

Sorry for off-topic, but I read your language miniblog post and didn't expect you're learning mandarin until now! As mandarin speaker from Taiwan (Although we use traditional mandarin here), glad to know that lol

I get it! Consolas and Palatino Linotype genuinely contribute to quality of life. However, copying these files is also potentially a violation of the license on the files: not something you'll get trouble for in practice at a personal scale, but bothersome. Artifex's URW 35 and the Microsoft Core fonts for the web provide a basic alternative to most of the fonts the web is built around.
Good modern designs are sometimes made free: Inconsolata, Source Serif, Gentium, Brill, Alegreya …
