Make your own website!!
Why?
Because the corporate takeover/enshittification of the web has turned you into a product to be monitized, and the old web used to be a fun place for self-expression. Personal sites are superior to cookie-cutter social media profiles in every way. Now there are some movements looking to bring that part of the internet back! (See: What is the Old Web/Revival?)
And it's a great/fun creative outlet and a fun and free hobby with a lovely community!.
- 🏄🏻♀️ You MUST Make a Website (spiders-around)
OK, but ...how?
You'll need to learn a little HTML, but I don't "know how to code" either, and I have done this site just fine~! However, I do know a little HTML. By which I mean, I know how to google HTML snippets and edit them a bit. But you can learn all this easily, I promise!!There are already some posts full of info and links out there, so while I will be collecting helpful links I find below, you might as well start with these, which are already complete!
