@neauoire I hope you don't mind my totally ignorant question. I've been following your transition from Riven to Lisp but this question pops in my mind every time: WHY
What do you do in your blog with Lisp, that is more convenient than just JS?
Because I asume it's work the effort of using a Lisp interpreter just for that... But I don't get it

Feel free to ignore my question though :)

@greyor Yes, they have wordpres:

@greyor If you want to install everything yourself, I guess you kinda know about Digitalocean, Linode and others similar.
I could also recomment Hetzner because they are in Germany and the privacy is good. they might have wordpress hosting too

@greyor Not bad! I wanted to do this for a long time, but somehow I got stuck at the categories :D
Where did you find inspiration for naming the main folders?

> A silo, or web content hosting silo, is a centralized web site (like most social media) typically owned by a for-profit corporation that stakes some claim to content contributed to it and restricts access in some way (has walls).

@digicana I googled your comment and everything I could think of, but from what I understand, this is a very specific meme right?
It doesn't tell me anything :)

@jonah Makes sense. Thank you 👌

@jonah Inviting sounds good, I had no idea.
Just one more question though: if someone doesn't know me (for example) and sees my Mastodon account and wants to ask me to join from my profile, is that possible?
Or the inviation happens offline and we exchange e-mails there?

@Wetrix If you acknowledge that this will keep your stress in check, it's a good starting point.
I think each of us has a set of skills that is very useful and you can use them to try to solve some of the problems you see, like the ones you just said.
Focus on solutions, not on the problems. I hope that's not horrible advice :)

@jonah I see. I guess I forgot about that since I joined.
But if you put your e-mail out there, can you control the amount of spam you'll receive, from bots trying to get invites?
Also, how could someone already in the server send invites? (is this feature in Mastodon already?)

@jonah I would advise agains invite-only. This makes it much harder for people to join. Confirmation e-mail makes it very close to any other normal service out there.
Just my 2 cents
