With the current drama around WordPress and Automattic, I was searching for alternatives to Simplenote, the app I am currently using to save my notes and keep them synced.

Walking through the park. 🚶‍♂️ I’ll definitely miss this nice area once we move away from Kassel! 🌇

Hetzner has Object Storage in beta now. I got access to it, but one thing is holding me back from using it: A fixed price (5,95 € per month per bucket), even if there is nothing stored in there or way less than the included 1 TB. Why not bill based on actual usage, like most other services are doing it nowadays? I guess I will keep using Scaleway Object Storage and Cloudflare R2.

My first passkeys implementation 🔑

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Something I wanted to implement already for a long time, but always seemed too complicated for the occasional programming session here or there, was support for WebAuthn or Passkeys for GoBlog. I noted it down two years ago and also already started to work on the implementation, but never got around to finish it.

On removing content

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I recently read this short post by Kev Quirk. It’s about removing content from the web. While Manuel Moreale is against deleting content from the web, Kev thinks he would probably delete things if he feels bad about them.

A weekend with my family

Published on in 💭 Thoughts
📍 Biel/Bienne, Bern, Switzerland, Twann, Bern, Switzerland, Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

This past weekend, I visited my family in the south of Germany. I wasn’t there for quite some time. On one day, we went to Biel in Switzerland, walking through the Taubenloch (“pigeonhole”, a canyon right next to the city) and sitting on a boat that took us across Lake Biel. It was quite picturesque.
