@shibaprasad Good luck and keep safe, friend. Seen on the news the clashes of police with students on the streets.

☮️ Good luck!

@realcaseyrollins Maybe you like the way Plume does it?

@realcaseyrollins Ah, I understand. Just a header and short summary, some systems do it that way.

But I don't think we as users can control it.

@realcaseyrollins if you want to Unpublish it, open the page in question, and near the title it will have the option of turning it into a Draft, not public anymore.

@realcaseyrollins You mean to unpublish it?

@_lunawinters That is a great book. Enjoy your reading!

@realcaseyrollins @counterculture

That is a good plan, yes. 👍

@_lunawinters Sending via DM, ok?

No wonder it's taking me some time to jump from tab to tab. If they are not nearby, it's a long scroll.

#Waterfox handling it well though. @Waterfoxproject great work!

@realcaseyrollins @counterculture ...as in, Font size?

No, don't do it. The text is decent as is, you just make it harder to read.

A blog page in my view is primarily a piece of writing, images are complements or used as fillers by someone with less things to say.

I love the plain back screen I get in write.freely in Night mode, and it operates so fast. Lovely software.

Someone mentioned Plume and I have an account there now too, but not sure if i like it so much for sheer writing tasks; their editor is smaller and slower than the writing freely one, and that is something I am already used to and enjoying...

On the good side, they allowing easy indexing via tags, seaches for related pages in your blong, linking to each other. And they offer in house image hosting too.

That makes it a lot easier for someone starting up, but i like to have my images in a separate image host; my bolg pages can be moved from one instance to another, or duplicated, very simply - copy paste, and it's functional when I hit the save button.

Plume has good thing though, as does write.freely.

I will write a report on my thoughts in blog form sometime.

@Sphinx
That will depend on the community itself. If there is interest and participation, if people step up and help each other.

If some volunteer time and assume leadership positions, either as Collaborators (an Elite level user) or on track to assisting Staff, and becoming staff if all works well.

WE depend a lot on the admin, I have been a member of a large community were two of the admins passed away over the years, and it was a big loss, but they are still there, alive and well.

It shouldn't depend on one person, or two, but the more participation there is, the better.

Can't take nothing for granted in the Internet, things pop in and out all the time, backup your work and collect info, someday you might need to move or the place you were hosted on blinks out.

It's pretty sad, but that's life.

@Surasanji

Never even got to know him much, but his #introduction post is here :https://qoto.org/@Surasanji/100594445373545421

Boy, that was really serious.

Just noticed the Account Moved notice. Bye Dave.

@realcaseyrollins @counterculture

Don't cut text, that's what a writing piece is all about.

Remove the inline video and problem solved. Place screenshots, static, and make them links, but KEEP your readers.

If you load zillions videos who is going to read?

Too much stimuli, bad for concentration, imo.
