So I relaunched my blog again. This time I’m hosting it myself. Never again with third-party platforms.
My bad experiences with Medium and @write_as led me here, to my own Jekyll solution.
My very first article published with this system talks about the journey and why this decision matters.
(Also, I have finally resolved to calling it a blog.)

Mark W.rites - I Should Have Self-Hosted to Begin With
After flawed journeys with Medium and Write.as, I finally figured it out: my content belongs to me, and I should dictate how it’s published.Mark W.rites

for anyone like me who is very very (very) late to the Linux #LXC party, this explains why #LXD has been replaced with #Incus.
tl;dr: #Canonical ruined things with a embrace-extend-extinguish play of relicensing and requiring contributors to sign a CLA to contribute to LXD.
discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/…
LXD has been re-licensed and is now under a CLA
Right, so for anyone who hasn’t seen the news elsewhere already, the Canonical team has decided to change the LXD license from Apache2 to AGPLv3 as well as require all new contributions to sign the Canonical CLA.Linux Containers Forum

#Deutschland drohen Milliardenstrafen wegen verfehlter #EU-Klimaziele. Zahlen wollte die Koalition diese ausgerechnet aus einem Fonds für #Klimaschutz. Kritiker sehen ein solches Vorgehen als Zweckentfremdung des Fonds. In letzter Minute schwenkt die Regierung um: Wie bisher müssen die Strafzahlungen auch in Zukunft aus dem Bundeshaushalt fließen.

in reply to Christian Tietze • • •@ctietze wow. That’s rad! ALA was monumental in my advancement as a designer and developer. I can’t begin to express how honored I was to have an article published there. And in the company of people like @zeldman, @kissane, Dan Cederholm, @eric…I was giddy.
Anyway, I’m glad you liked the article. And it’s cool to hear you read it back when it was first published.
Regarding the hosting, it’s only my blog that I was publishing on third-party platforms until now.
Eric
in reply to Mark Wyner Won’t Comply • • •That's a helluva list to be included on, wow. And yes! Getting published on ALA was a huge deal for me too.
Also, congrats on the re-launch, it looks great! Also subscribed to your RSS feed 😀 @ctietze @zeldman @kissane

Right? And that list goes on. Feldman probably kick started a lot of us.
I’m glad we connected here. I have been subscribed to your feed for a while. I’m honored you hit mine up. You have inspired me many times.
By the way, your latest site design is rad. Super fun and clean. I’m very keen on the conversational style of navigation and IA (like I do with mine).

in reply to Mark Wyner Won’t Comply • • •Good work! I started blogging back then in April 2008. My blog is still there and all posts are still available.
It's just a self hosted WordPress, but it did it's job. If I wanted to continue blogging, I just could do it (I stopped two years ago). Without renewing anything, just open the admin panel write and publish.
Is it fancy? No. Is it a technical marvel? Lol absolutely not. Can people read my texts? Definitely.

in reply to kaiserkiwi • • •@kaiserkiwi nice. That’s how it should be. Small web.
You are actually one of the catalysts for my leaving Medium. I had posted an article link here on Mastodon, and you told me you couldn’t get in. And then some other people chimed in with the same experience. Don’t know if you remember that.
Anyway, you were one of the reasons I started this journey. So, thank you.
kaiserkiwi
in reply to Mark Wyner Won’t Comply • • •I absolutely remember that. I'm still glad I said something and therefore made the internet a little bit better. And I'm still glad my post didn't came over rude.
And new I'm glad that you went a bit further to make your content really your own. 😊

in reply to mkj • • •When I migrated my own site to be a static site, I did initially look at a handful of alternatives. Hugo was one. I passed rather hard on that because, sure, it might be possible to stop it from doing that, but it *really really really wanted* to pull stuff from the Internet into the web site during the site build process. Which for me meant that besides offline builds at best being non-standard, I can't be sure builds are idempotent. Which were pretty strong requirements for me.
@markwyner
Mark Wyner Won’t Comply
in reply to mkj • • •@mkj that’s weird about Hugo. I looked at it, but passed form some reason that I can’t recall. Maybe because I don’t know anything about Go.
I have been using Middleman for as long as I can remember. Just for regular sites. But I don’t like their blog setup. And there was a bug with something I wanted to do. So that’s how I landed with Jekyll. Which is working great so far.
