to be clear I wouldn't expect anyone to add someone else's octobug blog to their home screen. But it's still a website with Atom/JSON feeds and all.
I'm honestly pretty proud of how far I've gotten in like 6 days of actual work. 8 days ago I was trying out headless CMSes and feeling depressed about all of them
wow SUPER cursed intro to this video
this is very good!!!!! the more you and i have been piddling in this make it easy to post to 11ty space, the more i'm like "surely someone's done this?" ... and yet. i'm excited to show off what i've got soon but idk if i'll have the time/brainpower/energy until this weekend
@johnholdun did some adjacent work in this space that is much more open webby than what I am doing (using the micropub standard) but running a micropub server felt only slightly better to me than running like headless WP (also lol seems like I dodged a bullet maybe after the last few days) or some other CMS.
If I got to the point where I replaced the github stuff with a PikaPod that ran a micropub server + eleventy install... I think that would be something I would be truly proud of. But getting octobug working at all has been good for my brain this week
:)
ooh i should check out john's work here! something i've been thinking about is how github is basically incidental as "the thing that stores the files and deploys the site" but probably i could be treating this aspect as an "adapter" where the backend could be used configurable/ dropped in?? much to think about it
something might be up with your timestamps for posts; all of your posts in the rss feed update to the time of the most recent website push, putting all of them at the top of my feed when you make a new post (it's very funny)
