(Since June 22, 2024, Space has ceased to be just a site - now it is a set of tools, processes and principles that help me work)
Hello! In this post I talk about the problem of centralization, why I am creating not a simple blog, but Space and how it should help me remember, think and create.
Web was designed to connect people and documents. For a while it was like that - a nice, cozy place where everyone had (potentially could have) a corner with their own rules and style. For example, my friends and I had blogs on LiveJournal and Wordpress, I went to someone’s server or computer via FTP to download a document, and in the evening I listened to home Internet radio (if I’m not mistaken, from Denis Vasilkov there was once an evening “warm tube” radio).
Today everything has changed (and continues to change, unfortunately). Nice cozy corners have turned into huge, noisy “squares” with constantly changing policies, total surveillance and even paid access .
I feel nostalgic for the times when we ruled the web. But I have the strength and capabilities to regain my “corner of the Internet.”
Welcome to my space !
