The Weird Internet Codex sign-up

Cyberpunk wasn't supposed to be an instruction manual.

Yet here we are.

Algorithms decide what we see.

Corporations own our data.

Most of our online lives exist inside a handful of platforms.

The Weird Internet Codex explores another path:

Personal websites.

Indie tools.

Cyberdecks.

Digital self-reliance.

Weird-web culture.

Communities building outside the walls of Big Tech.

Subscribe and help build a stranger, more human internet.

❤️ Monday Memes #11 ❤️

Algorithms, constant ads, pay walls, tracking, and walled gardens are so 2024. Leave behind the big data mining corporations and make your own indie website in 2025! That's what we're doing! ;)

Happy Monday!

So out of curiosity what are you using to make your webbed site???

Maybe it's because we're used to microlabel communities but we usually see carrds or rentrys, yours looks more like a neocities or uhhh we forgot the name of it but the blog platform also owned by tumblrs — OH WE MEAN WORDPRESS. Yours looks like a WordPress or a NeoCities.

We definitely do not have the coding skills necessary to make something so smooth looking but like, your site looks cool. ^.^;;;;

Thank you so much for the kind words <3

It's a wordpress! And actually it takes absolutely zero coding, it's as easy as setting up a tumblr.

This is what my back end looks like.

I use wordpress because it's what I've been using for over a decade, its open source and highly customizable, I can take it anywhere, I can put as much content on it as I want, and I can arrange that content however best pleases me. *puts fingers together ominously*.

In my online world, it's always 2010 ;)

OH OH.

Important clarification though!!

"wordpress.com" is owned by the same guy as tumblr.

"wordpress" the content management system (which I use) is free and open sources, and is NOT owned or affiliated with wordpress.com or the guy that owns tumblr.
