Hello world!
This is my very first blog entry! I love blogs and prefer RSS/Atom feeds over social media feeds. Until recently I was hesitant to start my own blog because I thought that almost everything has already been written about by people more competent than me. With all the AI slop around, that thought has changed. I find it more and more difficult to find articles written by humans, free of affiliate marketing or selling the data of their readers. I hope there are a few people on the internet that share this sentiment and find it refreshing to read about some of my projects. If that's you, please send me an email and let's talk. Even if you only let me know you read an article, I'd be glad to hear from you!
If you too are considering starting a blog, do it! Having a blog gives you the opportunity to publish ideas, thoughts or projects and keep full control over your content. There is someone out there who is looking exactly for your niche topic and will be happy to read your blog posts.
If you don't know HOW to create a blog, don't worry. It is not difficult and there are completely free options. I wrote this page with plain HTML/CSS and it is intentionally bare. There is only one very short and optional JavaScript code to handle dark/light theming better. I am using GitHub to host the repo of this website. Whenever I push to it, it automatically gets deployed via Cloudflare Pages. It's convenient and I don't have to pay anything for hosting. Since I write plain HTML/CSS, there is no need to update the website. I only need to change it if I am no longer happy with it's look. If you don't know what any of this means, don't worry. I can give you some suggestions.
