I made a new site this evening! Entirely from scratch, including the RSS feed.
Itās just a single-page placeholder for now, since Cohost is going read-only tomorrow. Solitary Quest is my project playing and reviewing solo/journaling games, and Iām hoping Iāll be able to work on the site and start the project up again.

https://onecatper.day saw two changes today:
the image now has a height of 450px
A very annoying whitespace bug that was adding tabs to index.html that probably no one noticed except me has been fixed. This change is not visible on the frontend. You only wouldāve noticed the whitespace had you ever peeked at index.htmlās source code in your browser

I added a dark theme to https://yequari.com/ and cleaned up my navbar a bit style-wise. Reintroduced JavaScript to my site to achieve the theme toggle and some of the visual flair in the navbar, but with JS disabled you would hardly know those things are gone 
The problem Iām facing now is that my dark theme has a much nicer color scheme than my light theme, so Iāll have to rethink that one soon.

Iāve really been enjoying light sepia tones for a light color mode. My blog makes use of this as an example. I think it is a nice compromise over the harsher light mode tones Iāve seen. There are also some much friendlier shades of white that Iāve seen people use for a light mode

I forgot to send this yesterday, I keep forgetting to send the stuff I did here.
I updated the index page for Velvetās site again, and made a full site map under directory to make navigation easier since Iāve got some plans for the āroomsā.
I donāt waste any more time remaking everything so Iām probably gonna think about the stuff in the site, instead of the aesthetics first and putting it off on a later date.

I added a new RSS feed link that points to my Feedbin starred items list. Since itās available as an option I thought it was a good idea to have it public on the site. Itās another way to help people discover new blogs after all.

Wrote a blog post, first drafts of two new articles, a second draft of another, tinkered with CSS a little more, and started looking into publishing a gopher site in parallel to my clearnet site.
Not strictly website related but I also sat down for 20 minutes today and figured out PGP.

When I joined the forum all I had uploaded to my test site was a template I had changed some hex values and image sources on and essentially just filled out with some ramblings as content. As of a few days work, now I have something of my own! But no contentā¦
https://crypticcritter.nekoweb.org/
I was very inspired by https://clownfred.zone/, and heavily studied/referenced that website while I was webweaving(I got tired of following tutorials of HTML/CSS basics and wanted to just make something I liked, referencing or googling whatever techniques I needed to get there). I genuinely donāt know how much of what I took is common technique and how much it seems apparent I ripped clownfred off directly. Iāll probably leave credit and a link to his site either way, but if anyone has thoughts on that Iām all ears.

Just launched melvian.net rather early, which will be my new home on the Internet. melvian.xyz will continue to be around in its current form until January 2025, in which case the site will redirect to melvian.net.
Iāve launched it this early because Iām sick of programming right now. I wrote my own CMS because I wanted to do some things that donāt work well with an SSG. Itās not great but itās fine, Iām tired of programming and I just need to use it as-is. Someday Iāll make a better version.
I will say that I definitely enjoyed Elixir as a programming language though!
Iām trying all sort of things on the new website, feedback is definitely welcome.

I added a table of contents to posts I specify! Itās been on my todo list for a while and Iām really happy with how it turned out. Cool features:
- Stays stuck to the side of the article, always at the ready
- Hidden under a button on small and medium screens
- Separate scrollbar gets added when there are too many items in it
Go test it out on a regular post or one with a longer toc.
