I've been thinking about building my first desktop app, and one of the ideas is giving people something to do with all of the various "download your data" options from LinkedIn, Google, your Twitter Archive, etc. I know there's the Twitter Archive 11ty project, but I thought there was an effort several years ago for something like this but I can't think of the name or who was involved - does it ring any bells? I'd love to talk to folks who've tried this before - especially if there are wheels here that don't need reinventing that I haven't found yet.
The idea would be something normies can use that gives them the instructions for how to request their archive and then a place to drag and drop it, a way to sync it for storage they already have, and something to DO with that data (digital memoir, some publishing it somewhere option, etc).

Eleventy is super fun. Thanks, @jgarber, for the suggestion! In just a couple of hours this morning (while also switching over our wifi network and setting up a laptop for a friend), I've got all my posts imported, tags working, slugs for all the old underscore posts so I don't need redirects, and a bunch of cleanup done.
Another weekend and I might be able to actually switch this thing!! #weekendHacking #personalProjects #blogging #hashtagOverload #eleventy #openSource

Alright, #opensource #fediverse software pals, if you were starting a new project today, which license would you use and why?

In the wake of the “GitHub CEO stepped down, no longer independent” news, I’m reminded that not enough people know about @Codeberg — free Git hosting run by a non-profit organization.
No tracking, no ads, no corporate buyout risk. Just open-source, community-driven software hosting.
