this is my first post on my very new website, im not sure what to include in it really.. __φ(..;) actually, let me talk about why i made this website in the first place!
over the last few days, i came across many different creators that talk about various things, some of which are the attention economy, privacy policies, and the indie web.
it made me realize the state of the world that we are in right now, and how we lost the communities that made us feel like we belong – especially because of platforms that are under the social media umbrella.
that’s not to say social media is evil or anything (or is it..) but i no longer find them entertaining. to me, they just suck the time out of my day and leave me feeling like my brain was fried! there’s just so much content consumption at such a small period of time!
i decided it was enough and i wanted to reclaim the things that made me happy. i got back to reading, crocheting, and picked up a few new hobbies on the way too! i will update my garden of interests with all these things in the future so look forward to that!
anyways, my motivation for building a website stems from my childhood self who once had a website on piczo. when piczo shut down in 2012, my website disappeared with it. to be fair, my website was just a pile of images and texts and messages from visitors. but it was my space, and it made me happy.
that website was the spark that ignited my passion for computers and everything in the digital world. it was such a fascinating thing to witness the internet era unfold and all the exciting things that came with it. and at that time, with my website, i felt like i was a part of it too.
so, im bringing back that side of me that enjoyed building a website. and im also going to use this space to express myself and talk about all the things that matter to me. i hope you enjoy reading my blog posts, and if you made it down here, why dont you leave a comment? (๑’ᵕ’๑)⸝*
