I'm dismayed every time I see content that I like being published on Substack. (Or any other big content platform to be honest. But Substack in particular.)

I have to admit that my attention span isn't what it used to be as well - but just like Winnie I really like long, well-written blog posts and I should work on making mine a bit more verbose as well.

I agree 100%!

This is a pretty nice little public feed reader. (And I'm not just saying that because my blog is on it.)

I really like this idea!

I'm currently (as in: since 1996) redesigning and rethinking my personal website and this question has been in my mind for a long time as well.

Großartig.

Ah, Tumblr. Those were the days.

I completely agree with Kev here. Especially when it comes to this escalation:

And it gets even worse -- and I've seen this happen many times on the fedi -- when folk imply that as users of the product we're also a bad people, just for using the product.

I've been wondering the same thing and just like Ruben, I end up being in favor of archives.

This is almost art

Amazing follow-up to the viral AI rant from a few days back

This is amazing

Personal websites are the best

Hm.

Oh, interesting idea! The wavey underline reminds me of a spellchecker, though.

Finally

I like all of this so very much

I've looked at MT screenshots lately and remembered it fondly

I like this. It looks like a MovableType blog. (Which I think it still is.)

This is quite a list.

I'm pretty sure that's it:

And maybe what’s missing now is simply connection.

The connections and communications moved to "Social Media" and will probably stay there.

Money ruins everything

I shall write a post with a whole bunch of recommendations. For example for my own link blog.

I'm not using 11ty but I do like the idea of using raindrop and an API to feed a linkblog

Well, let's hope it does.

MetaFilter is such a weird website. I used to love it but that's quite a while in the past.

I feel this loss of community online every day.

Absolutely. I do miss the short time when people just used the things we now call social media for fun but maybe it is okay the way it is right now.
