Moved website to my server entirely. I've been meaning to do this for years and even after having the God tool available it took me 5 months to find the will to do it. Oh well, better late than never. My goal with this is simple but multi-faceted. I can do any feature I want on the website itself, but those will actually only come after I finish the Anchor app, which will have this website running on my engine instead of HTML/CSS. This will allow me to have full control over everything, which will in turn allow me to do the ideas I have for mixing games and stories.

I think it's a good time in general though to have your own tools and spaces and to not rely on anyone else. It kind of feels like the public internet is... different? I don't know how to describe it actually, but I feel less compelled to be active anywhere online where other people can interact with me. I just feel like airing my thoughts to no one in particular and have no one in particular reply.

Strategically speaking this also makes sense. Now that you can do anything with Claude, the only benefit most social media sites provide is the ability for people to discover you, but it's debasing to be jestermaxxing to thousands of people to whom you are just a part of their "feed." I am not food, I am a human being. And as a human being, the warmth of one soul is worth more than the eyes of ten thousand followers. It's better to have one person super interested in what you have to offer than many who are lukewarm about you. Ah, I'm in a romantic mood I guess...

Anyway, with that principle in mind, having a place that you control fully feels necessary. I have lots of ideas for how I'm going to maximally use and expand this place towards that goal, and it will all happen in time. Until then I just have to keep trying to make more game.
