Welcome to my Ted Talk Blog!
This site is home of countless blog posts I made throughout the years.
You can find a list of them below.
A while ago has Codeberg announced their completion of their git-pages rollout.1
This means that you are now able to publish your site on Codeberg using their git-pages2 instance, which brings some benefits, but also drawbacks to consider
I'll use this oportunity to now make an updated version of my original Blog Post for Codeberg Pages, covering how you can publish your site using ProperDocs3 and Forgejo Actions.
With this Blog post would I like to announce that I have moved my Website away from MkDocs and towards using ProperDocs1.
There are various reasons which I will get into, including why you should consider moving to it too, if you're still using MkDocs.
Recently have I seen chats about the search of offices from Twitter (No I won't call it the other "name") in france.
And while I'll not go into details about why this was a justified move, people have been joking around that "if they want to know how the Algorythm works, they just have to check the source on GitHub!" not realizing that open source doesn't mean 100% transparency.
One feature that is currently missing from the Material for MkDocs Blog plugin1 are share buttons that would allow your readers to share your blog post on Social media platforms.
This guide will show you how you can implement this yourself!
One core feature of Material for MkDocs1 is the display of statistics of a linked repository, such as latest release, fork count and star count.
However, this feature is limited to GitHub2 and GitLab3 repositories and other repositories cannot be added the same way as these two.
A prime example is trying to add statistics from a Gitea4 or Forgejo5 hosted repository, which requires some extra steps to be done here. And this post will explain how!
Just in time for my birthday did my plugin AdvancedServerList reach 25 thousand downloads on Modrinth1.
This is a number I've never expected to reach here. So as a small thank you am I sharing some snippets of the plugin's development throughout the past 3 years and how it evolved to what it is now. Enjoy.
fediverse:creator meta tag for blog posts in MkDocsMastodon 4.3 added a feature, where links to sites can display an author affilialtion, linking to a Mastodon account associated with that site.
This feature works through the usage of a meta HTML tag containing a specific name and content value.
This small blog post explains how you can add this tag to Blog posts of your MkDocs site.
The term "Status Quo" in its most basic description means "The current state" of something.
Many things have a Status Quo the community accepts and/or tolerates, including Games.
I want to take the time and talk about why some of the things accepted as the overall norm is not a good idea, nor a good excuse for others to implement.
I provide support for the Premium Plugin ItemsAdder. And throughout my time doing this have I encountered lines like these:
Some of these lines may sound extreme, but I've encountered them before at least once. And not just with ItemsAdder, but also other (often times not even premium) plugins.
And they all have one thing in common most of the time: The user thinks they have a right for support, because they bought (or simply use) the plugin. This couldn't be further from the truth.
The Essential Mod1, not to be confused with the Essentials Plugin2 or its updated Fork EssentialsX3, is a mod that tries to be a all-in-one solution for players similar to what you imagine with Mods like LabyMod4 or the 5zig Reborn5 Mod.
The issue here is, that it has a lot of problems, making it a worse mod and not really a good choice to begin with. This post will cover all the points I managed to gather from the community over the years I've heard of this mod. Enjoy.
