Ducminh Yo
# Ducminh Hello?
# Ducminh Anyone active?
# Ducminh Uhh
# [morganm] Welcome
# Ducminh So i just found this while trying to say fuck you with meta
# [morganm] Your in a good place. A lot of the focus around here is about having your own domain, and putting a website as part of doing that
# Ducminh Hello?
# Ducminh Oh ok so
# Ducminh But dats weird barely anyone chats in here
# [morganm] How long did you join? I think the main focus of the group is working on websites
# [morganm] Sometimes people are inclined to post here when they have an update on their website
# Ducminh Just here and just wait im washing the clothes
# [morganm] nice. relatable 😄
# [morganm] People use the chat to co-ordinate events and often post updates to their personal domains or websites, but sometimes it can get quiet around here 🙂
# [morganm] I do remember when I joined via the web client to the chat initially it was really quiet, but there is life here I guess heh

# Ducminh Im afraid this place will be taken down by meta to keep people in facebook
# Ducminh But remember theyre greedy as hell
# Ducminh Yeah its quiet here im a little bored
# Ducminh Making websites welp i cannot cuz i ONLU HAVE THIS CRAPPY GALAXY S7
# Ducminh ???
# [morganm] Just being friendly but honest, you are quite new and we are trying to figure out how serious you are. If you are serious, we can help you get up a website with a Galaxy S7
# [morganm] Its quite possible to do with a mobile device
# Ducminh Im not ready to set up a web yey
# [morganm] not as friendly but its possible
# Ducminh I mean yet
# [morganm] No worries. We can all share here some stories about how having a personal website has been fun or useful, its a big part of the group here, whenever you are ready
# Ducminh 1:i dont wanna code
# [morganm] Im super proud of this little post on my website https://www.morganwebdev.org/posts/wcag-open-source-contribution/
# Ducminh 2:what can you do once set up own website
# [morganm] Ok, there are multiple hosted solutions for setting up a website with no or very minimal code. That limits your options for what you can do.
# [morganm] Your second question makes me think you should read https://indieweb.org
# Ducminh Like posting ideas for a game?
# [morganm] Sure?
# [morganm] Its your domain, post the ideas there 🙂
# Ducminh Maybe for example:idea of porting doom to game boy?
# [morganm] I mean, sure 🙂. Its on the Gameboy Advanced though already
# Ducminh Ah crap battery 1%
# [morganm] Good luck!

# Ducminh I think maybe thats not enough for me
# [morganm] Thats no problem, we will keep on responding to your questions with answers because they are helpful for the group 🙂
# [morganm] I had fun thinking about setting up a website with mobile only
# [morganm] https://home.omg.lol/ I wonder if its mobile-only possible...
# [snarfed] also https://micro.blog/ !
# Ducminh Im too lazy to code
# [morganm] That limits your options. And some of the less-coding solutions aren't as Indieweb friendly.

# [snarfed] there are plenty of indieweb-friendly web hosts that don't require any coding. http://micro.blog is a great one! and others too
# [snarfed] 🕸️.ws (https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/ ) is good for seeing other people's sites

cupparex I wrote about my feelings on having a blogroll this morning after reading the ones posted in here. I'd been thinking about it, and it made the perfect topic for today. For me it's about the obligation it creates https://crystaltouchton.com/to-blogroll-or-not-to-blogroll/

# [morganm]3 I just did some testing of my own website. I removed some alt text from images that are decorative - there are some clouds in an optional animation and I just found it was reading out "Cloud, Cloud, Cloud" when I tested it! and added a skip-link to allow keyboard users or others to skip to main content faster and skip reading over the nav menu each time. That makes people like things better.
