Happy Birthday Blog

Pretty much one year ago I started to blog again, and I’m happy with the result. I’m tinkering with Hugo themes a lot and so the current theme changed already three times. But this is half of the fun for me and I learn a lot! Happy Birthday blog.bdw.li ヾ( ˃ᴗ˂ )◞ • *✰

How to start (´。_。`)

It’s been four weeks since I opened this blog and I haven’t published anything new yet. Let me just drop a few thoughts off my head: I am impatiently waiting for a free slot on the Pixelfed mobile app 1 beta on testflight! The mobile web page 2 simply doesn’t feel as smooth as a proper app. After looking at a couple of photo books (Ethiopia by Joey Lawrence 3 and Juggling is easy…
