@tiefling@bardicperspiration.club @DaimonRainbow@bardicperspiration.club I think that is why sites like Neocities exist (where op is hosting their blog, and this article). To find a more humanist, fun Internet that has not been ruined by capitalism, follow the hashtags #smolweb #smallweb #retrocomputing

I've been seeing a few toots about getting off the corporate web and getting back to something more personal. Let me put in a plug for our dear old https://sdf.org/ . If you were an internet kid in the 80s and 90s, SDF has everything you want. Web(1.0) hosting, email, shell access, gopher, Gemini (no, not that one), chat, web radio and more. You can learn to use plan9, hang out on an ancient timeshare or finally write your masterpiece using c99 and Curses. Check it out! #sdf #smolweb

New page on #BurgeonLab ➡️ https://burgeonlab.com/junited-2026/ It's #Junited2026, where you share links to blog posts you enjoyed in the month of June. Sharing is caring, and I love the small web / IndieWeb, so this is a lovely initiative by Robert Birming (the creator of this community event). #blog #blogging #smallweb #smolweb #indieweb #junited #bloggers #personalsites #personalsite #personalblog #blogger

"I created my first web site in 1995. I hosted the site with my ISP, a local provider in Kirksville, MO. The ISP generously gave its customers a few megabytes of space if they wanted to host a site. The term "static" site didn't really exist then, because most if not all sites were static sites. Just HTML and a few images. No CSS, and certainly no JavaScript—which had not yet been invented." #Indieweb #smolwebhttps://dissociatedpress.net/blog/smolweb.html

HTML used to (mostly) be a format for reading and writing documents. As time went on, it got changed to an application format. These 2 use-cases (doc vs app) are at odds. One of the motivations in the small-net / small-web space is to take HTML back to its document format roots. Although some have have chosen to use alternative document formats such as Gemini's and Mercury's GemText. @talon@dragonscave.space RE: https://dragonscave.space/@talon/116456716105999739 #GeminiProtocol #MercuryProtocol #SmallNet #SmallWeb #SmolNet #SmolWeb

I missed this but it's brilliant : « We Need To Rewild The Internet - The internet has become an extractive and fragile monoculture. But we can revitalize it using lessons learned by ecologists. » by @mariafarrell@mastodon.social & @robin@mastodon.social Berjon « Our online spaces are not ecosystems, though tech firms love that word. They’re plantations; highly concentrated and controlled environments … that madden the creatures trapped within. » › https://www.noemamag.com/we-need-to-rewild-the-internet/ #Internet #Web #SmallWeb #Smolweb #Permacomputing
