There's a Neocities Discord and there's now a pixel club / webring / etc channel there now too. https://discord.gg/DTthcNCzBe

I got this Ask Me Anything and I won't be posting it to that page on my site. For a couple reasons. The biggest being it's an anonymous question, how do I know who to send it to and where to send it? LOL XD

Pretty tapped out emotionally, physically, mentally... No updates for at least a couple more days on top of the couple that have already passed. Be well and be good to one another.

I will never not be annoyed by how Neocities posts updates to the activity feed. Maybe I should work on my site less so that 24 hours actually pass between updates. Ah, who really cares, I do this for me mostly anyhow. But, it still bothers me lol.

If you end up going with an offline editor, you can batch changes and submit them all at once so then your activity updates are basically like a site update log with more substantial changes.

It does bug me but I think NeoCities should be more websites and less social media anyways. This whole thing is the meta website of the website imo.

If you saw my previous post here and were concerned, false alarm thankfully. All is well.

Once you embrace the offline editors I think you'll find the workflow much easier. I'm with you on those food trucks, around here they've always been called 'Roach Coaches'. But man are they clean, we have a taco truck in town with the BEST food, there is always a line down the street for it, it's always packed.

@ENFLICTED IDK what it is specifically that I love about food trucks, maybe just eating dope food as I walk down the street or see something different than normal, but man I love them! We have Tac El Riendo here for my fave taco truck, I don't ever miss it when it's out!

That's one of the reasons I visit the fair every year, the food! But, I'll say about 80% of the time, the food at the fair sucks. Still doesn't stop me every year though, cause last year, i picked up a masterful turkey leg, and it was so damn good.

@ENFLICTED "a masterful turkey leg" sounds like something I want to try! I did the State Fair here every year when I was younger, my back and sciatica make it no longer an option, but I'm right there with you on the food. Only reason I went hahaha!

My dude, right there with you on sciatica pain, had a car accident years ago, and my right leg has been fucked ever since.

@starfighter as opposed to Neocities in-site editor, you can use programs like Notepad++, VSCode, etc. There are so many different editors to choose from.

@enflicted Oooh, you mean like that. Okay then I understand. :D I thought it was something like a "silent" way to micro-update the site when there's only something small being changed. Notepad++ user myself!

@starfighter, haha yea, I tend to associate a lot as "offline", cause everything seems to be connected and online now. VSCodium User myself, but I do use Notepad++ on occasion for quick edits!

There might likely be some people who take issue with this, but I'm gonna say this - go by the cheapest calligraphy set available at your arts/crafts store. Seriously. Then go buy a bunch of chisel tip paint markers. Then go do the basic YouTube tutorials on how to writer letters. Tools aren't nearly as important as ppl think if you have an idea and a single creative gene.
appreciate the advice my man. I'm with you on tools bit. same goes for anything, as long as you have the knowledge, tools are just a way to bring it out. When I was learning art as a kid, it was always "you need this, or that" but all I ever used was a pencil and paper, and it worked just fine.
I think limitations breeds innovation, no matter the industry or whatever. Be stoked to see what ya do @ENFLICTED!
