More small website changes

I almost miss the post for today, so I wanted to at least write a listicle of some changes I've made this weekend

I pretty much ran out of time to write something more substantial, since I spent my day doing a bunch of things, but I’ll save all of that for the week notes tomorrow.

For now, I’ll only do a quick list of multiple website changes I did this past week for the sake of cleaning up some stuff and making everything just a tidy bit better.

I already did one of these , but I guess that writing so much and using my website even more often kinda gets me inspired to fix all the little caveats I find here and there, which is pretty cool

A lot of the changes are pretty unnoticeable, but at least I know they are there, which is what matters.

Most of this is relatively non-sensical words if you are unfamiliar with Jekyll and static site generators, but it’s really not a big deal.

  • Implemented microformats support for my main page and my articles.
  • Turned the more section into a more.yml, placed it on the _data folder and used a for loop to generate it.
  • Adjusted the CSS stylesheet so the more section looks like blocks instead of a regular list. Same class as the blogposts in the main page.
  • Turned the navigation bar into a flex element, to make it more responsive, the gap between each list item is now equal.
  • Added Blogroll and RSS to the navigation bar.
  • Removed the whitespace in between the navigation bar list elements by doing the for loop in a single line.
  • Fixed and cleaned up the RSS Feed’s XSL human readable structure which had been broken for a while.
  • Made the avatar in my about page responsive.
  • Fixed the blurry favicon issues with Real Favicon Generator.
  • Added author and permalink to the bottom of the posts template.
  • Fixed the IndieWeb Webring setup with some extra rel=me link elements.
  • Added some more buttons on my blogroll, and removed some dead links.

I am probably missing a couple of things, but I am pretty happy with all these changes. No long explanations this time, I just want to go sleep and get ready for tomorrow!

A new week is upon us! and Blaugust2025 shall continue.
