A couple of weeks ago, we launched https://astra-index.com

It’s a multi-format narrative put together by @distantmedium.bsky.social, with collaboration from @mysterycryptid, https://bsky.app/profile/nickelbank.bsky.social, https://bsky.app/profile/dilogical.bsky.social, and https://bsky.app/profile/nitrosparxx.bsky.social

I built the website for it, and I’m very proud to say it’s an entirely person-coded site, with its fair share of flaws, and rough edges. It’s very special project to me… 1/2

The Astra Index

I was hesitant to volunteer for such a big project, but I’m glad I did, because it’s been a very positive experience in no small part due to Distant’s wonderful and accepting community.

The main reason it’s so special is that it rekindled my love of doing these kinds of projects just for fun. I got to try out ideas, learn new things, and simply “play” in a medium I still want to enjoy.

While it might not look like much, it’s something I’m very proud of having made myself, by hand.
