Weeknotes No. 25-40
Here’s what happened during the week of September 29 to October 5, 2025.
I’m a little slow getting this one
Web Dev
- My 11ty experiment might be coming to an end
- In the process of moving a few things around, including fixing some dates in my photo blog’s micropost collection. That’s proving to be a pain in the ass, to be frank.
- Salvaged nearly 200 microposts from Bluesky (thanks to this handy utility) and deleted my account there. The great social media rollback continues.
- Not sure I’ll participate but Weird Web October is kinda fun
