im making a wiki for my homebrew world in my d&d campaign and i'm using wikidot, which has a somewhat unique language for writing/creating pages, and im learning it as i go so ive been sifting through these community forum posts from like. 2008
and it's just insane to me how much the internet has changed in what? 15 years? 10 years? even 5 years!
we really gotta bring back personal sites imho. i tried so many different wiki-building platforms for d&d (kanka, world anvil, obsidian portal, etc) and the best is still just making it your damn self. i refuse to be locked out of how many pages i can have on my site before having to "ugrade" my "account tier" or some shit. i refuse to be unable to change the links on the sidebar on my site without paying for "premium access" or whatever. i refuse to be limited on how many images i can upload or how many widgets i can put on the front page or how i can arrange those widgets. i hate not being able to export in some way all the content ive written on the site. im just really tired of being told how i have to do things before paying money for something that doesn't even change how im using their platform
#like i get charging for more storage on their servers or whatever but?#having to pay to be able to change the background of my page? to CHANGE THE COLORS of TEXT on my page?????#yeah no thanks#and i do get paying money for things you like!! for platforms that work for you and you want to support!#but holy shit i remember making my own html / css sites and wow did i take for granted the ability to CHANGE COLORS OF THINGS#insane.#tbf most of this is about world anvil lol.#kanka was much better about how much is available for free#there was just so little in the way of customizing how the wiki looks and the sleek white boxes look just doesnt vibe with me#alright rant over i need to find a snack
