I appreciate more and more that my otherwise incredibly dumb self in 2005 decided to get a domain name and start hosting a personal website. Every time a platform rises and falls, this becomes a better decision. If you are on the fence about getting a domain name and creating a personal website, just do it! If you think for some reason that it's too late, it's not. I always think about what @chriscoyier@front-end.social said about starting the CSS-Tricks blog back in the day. I once had an idea to start a blog about CSS. I sucked at writing. I sucked at designing. The vibe at the time was that everything important about CSS had already been written. Nobody told me. Even me quoting this after all these years is possible because he put it on his personal website! https://chriscoyier.net/2013/10/18/mediocre-ideas-showing-up-and-persistence/

    @bw@social.lol @chriscoyier@front-end.social good advice to just start doing something and not worry about it being perfect. And thank you Blake for making the excellent https://htmlforpeople.com/ site. It inspired me to make my own.
