What is this page?

My old blog. I used to have my blog on Blogger, but Blogger was a pain and didn't have extensions or any other cool features. Also it's what indieweb geeks call a "silo".

(It's better than most silos honestly, considering for example unlike tumblr it actually has a blog backup function. But yeah.)

Where did you go?

My own server, aka saucernexus.duckdns.org.

After trying it out on Sandstorm I moved from Blogger to a self-hosted Wordpress which is SO MUCH BETTER AND EASIER TO USE, wow. Blogger's xml templating system is horrid compared to the really nice and clean php templating system Wordpress uses.

PHP may be a dinosaur when we're in the era of Ruby (and sometimes Python?), but Wordpress is exactly the kind of thing it was designed for back in the day and it still works beautifully for that.

"Wordpress is cra-"

So is your ability to determine what is best for me. :p

I've found it to be the best blogging platform I've ever used, personally.
