a few months ago i had the immense privilege to speak about Websites at @webdevconf in Bristol — i've taken some time to improve on these ideas and build a permanent online home for the essay, which i intend to grow and improve over time 🤍

@henry thanks a lot for writing down your ideas and sharing them! And thanks for keeping alive #IvanIllich's thinking. I first came across #conviviality in the realm of the #commons and #degrowth. I like the application to the web. Strongly feel encouraged to finally built my own website. Last year came across #HTMLforPeople and refreshed my HTML skills. Shoutout to @bw #IndieWeb #SmallWeb
