I recently tried to improve a few parts of my blog and its theme:

1. Links in the content are now underlined, to better differentiate between links and bold text.
2. You can see the section of the entry below the title.
3. Point 2 also let me reduce the number of linked sections in the main menu.
4. I added the option to create anonymous comments without an own website by using comment parade.

If you find more things, which I should improve, feel free to contact me.

It’s nice to spend some time with the family and visit the zoo in Zurich. There were also some Australian animals. They have it probably much better there than their conspecifics in Australia.

Going to the cemetery always reminds me what a precious gift life is and how grateful I am to be alive and that I am also doing so well.

Yes there is a microformats library for Go. Will Norris also made the webmention library, which I’m using in my custom Hugo backend. I’m not saying it’s not possible to parse and display webmentions, I’m just trying to keep things simple. 😊 Everything is possible!

I don’t show webmention content at all. 😅 Instead I just show a link to the “interaction”. That removes a lot of complexity with parsing, storing etc. but probably isn’t as intuitive: it requires opening the “interactions” section below the post and visiting the link.

This post is mainly to test if my Micropub endpoint works the way it should, but look at this nice photo of an elephant! I recently visited Hamburg with my girlfriend and one day we also went to the zoo.

I’m always amazed when I do my usual web surfing and suddenly discover a link to my own blog, website or one of my projects from sites I never visited or heard of before. 😄

After getting inspired by Kevin C. Coram, the blog is now generated by Hugo on a private Drone CI instance. Using a custom Docker image with Hugo, the site gets generated and the output is then uploaded to the server using rsync. Because this approach is much cleaner than my previous one, I could now also setup things like a preview page and I can update Hugo versions for my sites independently.

I agree, it’s definitely harder to contact people without Twitter. However, in the last year I didn’t need to contact anyone (people as well as businesses) who had just an account on Twitter.

And I think redacted information on WHOIS isn’t a problem, because at least in Germany (where I live) an “Impressum” (with a way to contact the website owner) is required by law.

Because I like reading what things other people are using (sometimes I find interesting stuff that way) and inspired by uses.tech, I started creating a /uses page on my website. There are so many things I could write down there, but I started with hardware, domain registrars and selfhosted services. Next, I will start adding all the softwares I use (browsers, editors, IDEs, …).
