Can “Indie” Social Media Save Us? (The New Yorker)
Artisanal versions of Twitter and Facebook hope to keep the good while jettisoning the bad.

Shared and commented on all over the place but worth saving here too.

The Victorian Web (www.victorianweb.org)

I wish I had access to The Victorian Web back when I was studying for my Open University Arts Foundation course. This is a great resource.

The ultimate guide to DuckDuckGo - BrettTerpstra.com (BrettTerpstra.com)
If you don’t already have the scoop, it’s the search engine that can serve as a complete replacement for Google (and Bing and whatever else you like), except it respects your privacy and security. And while Google does some cool tricks, DuckDuckGo does some even better ones.

I switched over to DuckDuckGo for searches a few months ago. There’s a lot of stuff here I didn’t know about especially “bangs” which look really useful.

Pinafore – Home (pinafore.social)

Here’s a really nice alternative to the ugly, dark, default Mastodon interface. It makes me want to use the service more.

The 1985 Knebworth Concerts (ukrockfestivals.com)

This is the day that put me off open air festivals for life at a young age. The descriptions here are pretty accurate and the fireworks display at the end was the only highlight of a horrible event.
