~dan's website on envs.net

Welcome to ~dan's website on the envs.net pubnix/tilde! This site is under constant construction. Here you'll find mostly static information (slash pages), a list of my blog posts, my Image gallery and my latest addition: a guestbook.

I've set up a blog too now

Although I didn't want to set up a blog and use my Gopher Hole phlog instead of a blog, I couldn't resist to build a blogging engine in php and bash. So I'll make my blogging updates from now on with my self-developed blogging engine. There's also an RSS feed you can subscribe to. So from now on you'll find my newest ramblings on the blog.

I'll maybe still use my Gopher phlog for some entries but I think I'll retire it for now, although I made a lot of changes to the "burrow" tool and also send a pull request to James Tomasinos "burrow" repository. Maybe it will be of use for others. I also have another Gopher Hole on my own server at redterminal.org.

Receiving Webmentions

The main pages and my blog posts (excluding the image gallery, my Gopher WWW pages and the guestbook) can receive webmentions and pingpacks. They won't appear on the pages instantly, but are collected on a feed I'm subscribed to. I'll add received webmentions later manually (if I want to).

Look and Feel

I'll keep using the envs.net css styles and templates (with small tweaks to <h3>) for all static pages and the blog to keep the same look. It doesn't use any JS, so it is very lightweight. I also like the dark and light mode look very much and it's the default look of envs.net web pages, which I really like.

Usage of this web space

I'm still not sure what to place on these pages, but I'll concentrate on content about my envs.net pubnix membership and the Tildeverse as a whole. I've also taken some inspirations from https://slashpages.net/.

I also set up a "Single File PHP Gallery" to create a gallery of my images, photos, screenshots and other pictures. This Gallery I'll keep using all the time. It's really easy to set up and you can also make separate collections simply by putting them in a subfolder.

I found the MIT licensed "DigiOz Guestbook" and adapted it to the default envs.net CSS style as good as I could. I would be happy, if you would drop me a line.

Best wishes,
