Blogroll

Some of the personal websites and blogs I enjoy across the web. Emphasis on “some”.

The Gemini version of this page (linked in the footer) showcases gemlogs and phlogs I enjoy.

Descriptions are written by myself based on my own experience gathered from before I have decided to include someone in this list. I am not affiliated with any of the services, companies, or products mentioned unless noted otherwise.

Entries are sorted in reverse-alphabetical order.

• sloum

  sloum.colorfield.space

  sloum is a member of a number of non-tilde pubnixes such as rawtext.club and Circumlunar.space. He writes software, sometimes in his own languages, and maintains Gemini and Gopher presences in addition to the WWW one. He blogs about many things other than technology or the internet.

  The website I linked is hosted on his own pubnix, colorfield.space, which as far as I’m aware, is only accessible via Gopher.

• Seirdy

  seirdy.one

  Seirdy’s site is the source of inspiration for many aspects of my own site, including meta pages, accessibility and other design choices. They write about fairly technical topics on their blog which you might have already stumbled upon through link-aggregator sites.

  In addition to their long-form articles, they also keep a log of shorter, more informal posts in a Notes page, and keep a lot of their public Bookmarks.

• Protesilaos

  protesilaos.com

  Protesilaos (“prot”) is a prominent contributor to Emacs and Emacs packages. He is the author of the Modus themes which was used for syntax highlighting on this site. He blogs about technology, philosophy, politics, and life and he also hosts documentation of his Emacs packages on his website. He has a YouTube channel where he talks about philosophy, and his hut, and shares Emacs screencasts.

• Ploum

  ploum.net

  Ploum blogs about the internet, practices, and culture and is also a fiction writer. He has a French wikipedia page and has both English and French blog posts.

• Manu

  manuelmoreale.com

  Manu’s posts are thoughtful recollections of life, the personal web, on practices and culture, and more. He hosts newsletters, like People and Blogs that interviews people about their lives and their blogs. He writes often, and his posts are always thought-provoking to me. He also started the “I’ll read it” club.

• James

  jamesg.blog

  A wonderfully designed blog that covers a range of topics from snippets of life to personal websites. They provide food for thought and even ideas for your own personal website. James’ blog also contains places such as a Link Garden, a blogroll of other “web weavers”, his own book about Technical Writer, and more.

• Jack Baty

  baty.net

  Jack writes about technology, his own website, workflows, among other topics. He also has a daily journal at daily.baty.net. Jack has been blogging for a long time and its set up has changed many times; as of writing, his blog is currently powered by Ghost.

• erock

  bower.sh

  erock blogs about technology and philosophy. He is the author of neovimcraft and pico.sh, the latter of which provides a blog hosting service, prose.sh which also hosts his own blog.

• Arne

  arne.me

  Arne’s blog has inspired me in many ways, most notably “Why You Should Write Your Own Static Site Generator”. Arne also has a newsletter where they share interesting links on the internet.

I always love to discover more blogs and personal sites. If you’d like to nominate one (preferably, that isn’t your own), please do not hesitate to contact me.

If you’d like to correct any mistakes or would like to be removed, feel free to update this page yourself on the GitHub or SourceHut repositories, or contact me.
