To do and accomplished, of Week 11 of 2026

Posted on March[²⁰26], Sunday 15.March[²⁰26], Sunday 15. By Shrimple No Comments on To do and accomplished, of Week 11 of 2026

First thing that stays in my immediate ambitions is to get small tasks going in the C codebase of Links2. Picking up from Links 2, a graphical browser I wanna build upon. And a quick look at how ELinks is doing. Another is making a new theme for this blog with Block Editor in WordPress…

On OVH hosting, you can’t opt out from protection

Posted on March[²⁰26], Tuesday 10.March[²⁰26], Tuesday 10. By Shrimple No Comments on On OVH hosting, you can’t opt out from protection

I at first chose an OVH hosting for this blog, because I really needed to get it going quickly and so I tried picking the most default option. I also wanted the IP to not be immediately pointing to my friends. One day, I installed the WordPress for iOS app and somehow right then from…

Why follow requests here and can I even be followed

Posted on January[²⁰26], Thursday 22.January[²⁰26], Thursday 22. By Shrimple No Comments on Why follow requests here and can I even be followed

I don’t know… I’ve initially set up this blog with not only the ActivityPub plugin but also with the IndieBlocks plugin — despite using a darn old cool theme that’s definitely not responsive and probably doesn’t have the block-based design that’s required — but I think it may have interfered by maybe putting up its own WebFinger or something. After all, I did at first get a warning in health checks that my webfinger well known is not accessible.

Now I chose to not go with IndieBlocks (at least for now, I have to read up on what it is and what’s it got in the code) and I’m told on some instances the follows aren’t expected to require approval per the metadata. But we’ll see, for now I didn’t get anyone to appear in the Followers section and I thus won’t know if this work.

But why care, being on ActivityPub is enough, the fact that a permalink can be searched up and shared as a fedi post is a lot. Now that I think of it, maybe I should draft up some post footer to inform readers of it. Not that otherwise perhaps, if linked, the post will show as a quote post anyway
