The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

Dear everyone on twitter —
I'm taking a few days off, but I haven't the discipline to stop staring blankly at you on a little screen everyday.
Please refrain from posting anything I might consider relevant to my professional interests this week.

Kittens/food/jokes/joy only, ok?

@creativityhurts @ncoronges Those antipatterns work.

Making it 100000 times more complex to confidently opt out, than just hitting the “Yes to whatever you might have asked for. Fingers crossed, here goes” button. Was no accident.

And we work in this space. What chance to other stand?

@bonjouryannick @ncoronges Oh thanks! Minimal-consent looked good. Shame it’s no longer maintained. I’d prefer not to use something that defaults to automatically accepting everything being asked for.

A tool like this may well help my experience. But I wish the habits of the industry were just better.

It has been a little over a year since I could get beyond the cookie consent modal on @TechCrunch. Any link I follow there is a dead-end.

These horrible barriers, with their JS errors and their dark UX patterns are killing the web.

@mrkurt @kentcdodds @joshuaiz @Netlify @vercel @flydotio @jlengstorf Sort of.

When you place an order, we'll hire somebody to satisfy your order and then as soon as you have what you asked for, they will be fired.

We're still working out some of the kinks.
