Elizabeth Tai | ζˆ΄η§€ι“ƒ πŸ‡²πŸ‡Ύ@liztai@hachyderm.io (2026-08-20 09:21:34) Hey #Mastodon #Indieweb folks. I remember having a conversation about blogging and creating websites once and someone recommended a service that enables you to create a simple website using markdown, but I have now forgotten it's name. It's not bear, or publii. I think it has the word "page" in its name but I could be wrong. Help!

But we content folks may not realise that the world, being platform based now, has changed

Reply to @bstn@social.lol Elizabeth Tai | ζˆ΄η§€ι“ƒ πŸ‡²πŸ‡Ύ@liztai@hachyderm.io (2026-08-16 22:18:28) @bstn in the content profession world, this advice is considered common sense. It always surprises me how most people get an aha moment when I tell them about the "you need to own a domain and your website" thing. So I guess I will keep saying it for years and years because platform capture is indeed such a thing in our day and age.
