I moved my blog (using a self-hosted #Known instance) and posted about Smalltalk mostly but also how much of where I am is thanks to Bjorn Freeman-Benson, #OOPSLA and much more. Feedback welcome. https://known.kenbauer.me/2019/02/15/back-to-smalltalk

So I wrote a thing. Thanks @jgmac1106 for the inspiration. https://blog.kenbauer.me/2019/02/06/indiewebifying-my-blog/ #IndieWeb #DoOO
Note: for the month of February, we will see after that.
Another #BlogPost up about why I will not be on Facebook platforms, so no Instagram or WhatsApp (mostly) as well. https://blog.kenbauer.me/2019/01/31/paint-it-facebook-black/ Hat tip to @twoodwar for the featured image for this post which is released under a @creativecommons BY-SA 2.0 license.
