looks quite nice, but i always find myself disappointed that all the content on the "small web" is just posting /about/ the small web, rather than doing anything interesting on it

14/30 of the posts on the top page are just about making websites

I can say from experience that the small web has considerable breadth. I think what you're seeing here is a product of the small, curated list of sites combined with the recency bias of a feed data view.

You'll see similar results from the various indieweb indexes that primarily use the kagi RSS list from github; this list attracts a specific segment of the blogosphere.

thanks for recommending kagi small web, just going through their random posts page i've already seen lots of nice stuff on there

Long ago when we didn’t have Movable Type and every blog was either a work journal on a gopher prefix or a hand-maintained directory of HTML files, this was always the case; a significant fraction, if not an outright majority, of the people willing to try out new styles of interaction are also going to post introspectively about styles of interaction. Developing communities requires discussing developing communities, after all! So it is normal for something that is ‘bubbling’ up from the cauldron of experiments to have a degree of navel-gazing inherent in it — and given how catastrophically blogging went once it lost that aspect, I can accept some amount of ‘seeing how the social structure sausage is made’ if it shifts the overall scales back towards meaningful.

Looks interesting, would be a nicer article though if there was a demo with before/after to show the results, and why the previous ideas didn't work

for something dealing with audio you do need to play the audio really

no one cares what language the program is written in

you can make it as cheap or expensive as you want it to be. A big expensive one I'm sure would be better, but you can still be well-served by a £2 usb dongle off wish.com

https://audacious-media-player.org/ has a winamp mode which does

i'm sure they have used PSPs in australia as well...

what a stupid name

it looks like one of those malware sites you see when clicking on a dodgy advert

a browser you at least have the ability to change though. if your ISP doesn't offer v6 you're SOL really

ISPs almost all offer IPv6. The reason the US number is not higher is lazy corporate networks.

That depends on the country though. Southern Europe is way behind in terms of IPv6 adoption even by ISPs
