I went to see Andy Goldsworthy's retrospective in Edinburgh recently, and have been trying to put the experience into words ever since. Here's where I ended up. www.relativesanity.com/articles/gol...

This is a good read but I'm still clueless on how to practically do this. Notes is easy, Photos for family is a nightmare. Also personal Dropbox isn't E2E so no different to iCloud Drive. I think my response is going to be 🙈 and just get on with life heatherburns.tech/2025/11/10/t...

Who’s using Pagecord? Sept/Oct edition. #blogging #smallweb #indieweb blog.pagecord.com/whos-using-p...

I've created a PR for attachment gallery support in Lexxy. It's the last remaining feature I need to ditch Trix in Pagecord. No idea if the approach is good, or whether it will be considered. Hope so though! github.com/basecamp/lex... #rails

I've written an in-depth blog post about the new Irys Photos app. Have you used it? Would love to know what you think. #photography #reviews #photosky

Ok, long day but it's live (for me only 😊). Reworked everything on the Pagecord public blogs, and now enabled custom CSS for my blog and made some tweaks. What do you think to my new theme and design? #blogging #bloggers #indieweb #buildinpublic

Really chuffed with this major new feature for @pagecord.com. Please consider signing up and kicking the tyres! It's literally free, and all the fancy features (analytics, custom domains, email subscriptions) only cost $29/yr. Get it while it's hot! #blogging #opensource #buildinpublic #indieweb

I've been hacking around with a branch of Pagecord to allow people to customise their blogs using CSS 🎨 I might actually ship this. olly.pagecord.com/8aaafffc

Love this visual representation of tracking the books you’ve read via @andotherthings.blog on Pagecord 😍 #books #blogs #blogging

Now you can choose where your email subscription form appears #blogging #minimalism #digitalminimalism

Trialling a few new features in @pagecord.com at once, what could possibly go wrong? #buildinpublic #blogging #smallweb

Pagecord - One Year in Review. Thank you @spi.blue! 😊🙏 #blogging #smallweb

This feature will allow me to replace my long-standing headey.net personal site by merging it with my Pagecord. I’d have to migrate old posts (easy for me as Pagecord owner! ☺️) but my whole online techie presence could then exist in Pagecord on my olly.world domain. Pretty sweet.

Playing around with a new home page feature 🚧

Thought about this latest Ruby drama a lot. I ❤️ Rails and I’m thankful for it, so by association to DHH even if his political blog posts wind me up. Frankly, what he chooses to write is his business and I don’t think it affects Rails. Don’t read it if it gets you worked up. Life’s too short, srsly.

Let me review the new iPhones for you #apple

I think it's probably time to stay off social media entirely – except Instagram, for now (because IRL friends and 📷). It's just so divisive. Maybe I'll go cold turkey until the new year? I post my photography on another Bluesky for photography, but that's broadcast only so probably doesn't count.

I'm now beta testing Lexxy in Pagecord! 🥳✨ Early days but I'm over the hump and running it (for me) in production. Take a look! #rails #buildinpublic #indieweb
