hmm although i've already got my own profile website, this is my incognito account and linking to the site reveals my identity (i rather hate someone to link my true identity to this one though), but i reckon there's many who wanna know more about me beyond the masto's tiny and easily-become-long-n-chaos bio section as i'm one of them, i reckon i should make a tiny page somewhere, borrwoing or renting someone's namespace..

tldr; i reckon i need a profile page for this acc

maybe neocities is enough?

i wonder what i can do with it to prevent cheeky slop bots from sniffing my supreme human made web page, considering you can only serve static files via the system
how far can i go only with js as something to (a bit) dynamically interact with the page (and you)

#neocities #noai

oh is #neocities in the us? then i should perhaps avoid it.. any country should be more or less the same but there should be a better choice even among the bad

https://github.com/neocities/neocities/issues/629

although i've already been on codeberg i reckon making another acc just for this and using codeberg pages to serve it might be good

https://codeberg.page/

.. but since i've kinda wanted to start my own fedi instance so i can use far more blobs and more characters in a single post, i reckon i just should buy a new domain name and rent yet another tiny vps to run the fedi suite and put the web page there?

how much would it cost..

god i was afraid it'd be 1k jpy (~= 6 usd) but found one of my current providers (which is ovh) offered a quite strong spec one in so cheap 4.54 usd and even 15 % discount available for a year commission since the spec woule be soon sold out as my experience i'm totally in FOMO

i thought getting a .ovh would be a good idea to reduce the running cost cuz i don't mind much about the domain for this server, but sadly it's been closed for new registration

so i'm actually ordering yet another ovh vps.. and i always hate this moment cuz i gotta select where my server should be located and it's quite political, i'm mandated to verify the available countries' status like whether it can go to the right.. and lately the choice is getting narrower n narrower

oh god i placed the order now i need to find a fit fedi backend.. and TIME TO PREPARE AND DEPLOY STUFF

i'm stupid i ain't even finished moving my old server but bought a new one

finding a non wanker fedi backend seems way much harder than researching and deciding a vps..

if only programming were my biggest hobby and i had time and passion to make my own one..

so searching for a fedi microblogging backend or suite, almost compromising (rude) to mastodon (accurately, glitch) or pleroma, i almost fatefully got to know about #snac while i still need further research or actually play around with it, it seems to have passed a lot of my requirements :
+ lightweight
+ mature
+ still growing
+ multiuser
+ masto compat
+ repo on codeberg
+ author uses it
+ written in C (which i wanna learn)
+ #noai 💯

you can't know how i'm excited now..

@f0bb1d04@mastodon.social #snac is great. It powers #FediMeteo and is doing a great job.

@stefano didn't know about the project! and your blog post about it taught me a lot, i'll use a tiny vps similar to yours to host my snac, so i was wondering how much (or little) it'd eat resources. actually it relieved me a lot and surpised me as well, so many instances and accounts are running on the single vps !
