- This website is built upon Indie Web principles.
- I continue to use Notion with Super to reduce technical friction in updating my website, and to make myself overcome perfectionism by publishing quickly.
- To serve you better, I modeled after jamesclear.com because he communicates benefits of his website and services superbly.
- My website continues to be a “public” Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) system.
- I use Obsidian for quick jot-downs like grocery lists and notes to self.
- I use Google Docs for drafts inviting collaboration.
- I wish I can use Notion for everything but it's slow on mobile and doesn't support offline sync. ☹️
