As for the @dejal header, in addition to being green now, it is simplified to just three items, and the Apps item now shows a menu of my apps (or click the Apps link to go to the Apps page). That lets me remove the apps from the sidebars, and later the sidebars themselves.
Speaking of @dejal, I’ve continued to tweak its website, very slowly modernizing it. Yesterday I pushed out a new green Dejal header and a shrinking and sticky app header. Here’s a GIF demo. I’m not a web developer, so I’m kinda proud that I could get this working fairly well.
Yesterday I posted about a tweak to the Dejal site, showing the Time Out page. For Throwback Thursday, I thought I’d share some screenshots from the Wayback Machine of ancient variations of that page, starting from 2003. #ThrowbackThursday
As a fun activity on today’s Weekend Wednesday, I tweaked the Dejal site to bump up the font size on the main text areas. These are marketing pages; they should be more readable. I plan on more changes in the future. Compare old and new.
The Micro.blog photo challenge for August is now over. It was a lot of fun; thanks to @macgenie for organizing it! You can see all of my photos for the challenge via the tag “mbaug” on my blog.
Now that I’ve done several #MediaMonday posts, I’ve added a page to the Dejus site to collect links to them in alphabetical order, grouped by media kind. The page is always available via the sidebar from the “hamburger” icon.
People self-hosting WordPress sites and cross-posting to Micro.blog and/or Twitter: by default WordPress converts emojis to images, which breaks emoji-based tagging, among other issues. I just installed a plugin to disable that. 🔌🎉
On the homestead blog: a post summarizing summaries of projects. Want a convenient place to see my various construction projects? Enjoy!
I’ve decided to stop using the #dejus365 hashtag on my daily photo posts, since hashtags are a bit out-of-place on my favorite social platform, Micro.blog, and I don’t see sufficient benefit in using it. I still plan to post at least one photo every day.
Apparently Facebook is down at present. I only noticed because I got an error trying to manually cross-post my daily photo there, for friends & family that haven’t seen the light of Micro.blog.
