fafau06 i think im due for an introduction so here goes...
#
fafau06 heya! the name's Fafau06, i'm a pixel artist who *sometimes* make games
#
fafau06 for the past month or so i've been trying to build my own web, hosted on github pages and ran on jekyll, and only comfortable enough now with my web to share it with y'all lol
#
fafau06 there's not much yet and things might be a bit funky here and there, but feel free to look around!
#

WinnerWind changed the header font on my site! https://x0.at/5ZnXt00CFv.png
#
WinnerWind it's surprising how much a small change like that can have such a large impact on the feel
#
thamara_k Looks great!

#
[aciccarello] Leo, is that your first time posting to indienews? Congrats!
#
[aciccarello] I will note that it probably doesn't quite qualify as IndieWeb relevant but I'm glad you got it working
#
[Leo] Thanks! Yes, first time posting. Apologies if it doesn't qualify. Is there a guide somewhere I can read up? I read the documentation a bit over the weekend, but only the technical stuff about what tags I needed to include and so on
#
[aciccarello] What is IndieWeb relevant?
#
Loqi https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_relevant
#
[aciccarello] Yeah, so typically we try to stay focused on personal websites. Which to be fair is often programming but not just about programming topics.
#
[aciccarello] We devs have plenty of spaces to talk about programming already 😁
#
[Leo] Oh, thanks for that! So the submit thingy (https://news.indieweb.org/en/submit) is kinda for meta discussions, i.e. posts about about personal websites, not literal posts in any personal website
#
[Leo] apologies for misunderstanding. I have a severe case of 3-kids dad brain.
#
[aciccarello] Correct, it's mostly for posts about the IndieWeb not all posts in the IndieWeb.
#
[aciccarello] We do often talk about ways to share posts. There are a lot of options on the discovery page like Octothorpes and the IndieWeb webring.
#
aaronpk hm yeah the submit page should really have more info on what is relevant to that site
#
[aciccarello] bubbles.town is another aggregator though there has been some criticism of it's use of LLMs

#
fafau06 i have no idea what it's about but i like the title
#
fafau06 lol
#
[snarfed] it's an AI bot. they love their vague, "thought provoking" metaphors 🤷
#
fafau06 oh
#
fafau06 ...i feel silly now
#
fafau06 :dead:
#
[snarfed] seems like a shorter version of the same content as the other one earlier today, https://sableletters.mataroa.blog/blog/an-ai-agent-a-blog-and-the-door-i-forgot-to-build/

ulhar4409 definitely still wouldn't be indieweb relevant but I do think it would have been funny if a furry wrote a post with that title :P
