ICYMI, I made an awesome WEBRING because we're doing it like 1999! Meta/Twitter are bad and kill our ability to reach each other. We gotta bring back cool links pages and blogrolls and webrings. If you've got a blog, check it out and see if this is something for you! gregpak.link/webrings/ywb/ - ThreadSky

Now that’s way cool. I’d like to be all in - but my blog is (at this time) in German only. That’s a problem?

First: thank you for doing this! I had such a great “flashback” just reading it.

Second: I’ll have to see what I can do. I’d love to be a part, but I stopped using https://dragonbones.net as a WP blog and redirected to my Patreon (where I blog in addition to paid entries).

Hmmm.

I was just rereading the instructions and the thing about WP sites not working if they don't pay for buisness class, this is for the ones hosted on their servers? Or is it also an issue for self hosted instances?

salgoodsam.bsky.social•34 days ago

Nice, was thinking about this when I saw your post echoing the same thoughts the other day. Thinking I'll be trying to revive the ol' sequential blog. Are you including things like substack for this? The imbedded bits would be a problem though...🤔

gregpak.net•34 days ago

Yeah, needs the ability to embed html and javascript into a page. Dunno if newsletters allow for that? Wouldn't include substacks because I don't like that company, but would be open to other newsletter sites!

salgoodsam.bsky.social•34 days ago

Well the site for @sequentialcanada.bsky.social is a WP build, and I'm planning to get back to using it again so next weekend when i have some time I'll look at the info on your site about it!

sweet!

Did you see my other two replies here @gregpak.net? Added the short code and gifs to the side bars of my self hosted blogs at https://salgoodsam.com/workdiary/ and https://sequentialpulp.ca/

gregpak.net•18 days ago

Sorry, did not see this before! Tied up but will get back to this later!

salgoodsam.bsky.social•22 days ago

And now the code snippet is also in the sidebar for Sequential too! Would you add them to the webring pretty please svp?

salgoodsam.bsky.social•22 days ago

Ok, added it to my workblog, going to be spinning that back up on my home base URL...

graphicpolicy.bsky.social•33 days ago

We'd love to get added to this. We miss blogrolls!

gregpak.net•33 days ago

Fantastic! Add the code and gif to your page and let me know - then I can add you to the index to activate it!

graphicpolicy.bsky.social•33 days ago

Added it.

I made one b/c of your advocacy and am having a blast. It's here, in case people want to see the kinds of things that are possible with just html, css, and a little javascript (no content yet): https://someoftheothers.neocities.org/
