[KevinMarks] This is a great restatement of Prinicples and Getting Started https://henry.codes/writing/a-website-to-destroy-all-websites/
#
[tantek] except the negative framing up front is not great ("destroy-all-websites" in the slug, and "end all websites"). like I think we can do better than such "too cool for school" negativity up front. immediately sours me on the content before even having read it
#
[tantek] not the kind of framing I'd want to amplify
#
[artlung] I think framing mention of it as “a bit spicier point of view than I'm comfortable with, but…”
#
[artlung] I know there's things I've amplified with a framing caveat of “a bit more twee” or “a bit more nostalgic” sets the tone nicely
#
[artlung] Solidarity for small “i” indie web!
#
gRegor nifty layout and typography
#
osteophage Having now read it, it seems pretty standard.

#
ulhar4409 side note, Aperture seems a little picky on how you give it feeds to read?

ulhar4409 insists on doing feed discovery stuff instead of allowing the url provided to *be* the feed
