I always think about writing a blog or having a place to complain. Having a single space of the internet where I can go and rant about anything.
Back in the day... we had MySpace (I never actually created an account), we had Hi5, Orkut, Fotolog, Metroflog, etc. All social networks with the intention of bringing a social space to each person where they can show themselves.
Nowadays are Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, TikTok, all with the same intention: profit, I mean, social communication.
But the problem has been always the same: Those are third party places, depending on others, depending on a company finding a profit, which always implies this: The company owns the existence of that small space.
And then is 2025... I'm starting a blog, like the old days, just to have a single place where to rant, where to share toughs, where to place examples or my content on talks I give.
Also I'm tired of the rage bait, the short video format and because we are social animals, we need to communicate and I'm also a nerd that is always pushing himself into doing the work by hand (at least once).
This time, I'm using Zola as a static site generator. Because hugo seemed to overloaded, other projects have to many plugins or configurations and... I don't want to write a bunch of tags when I just want to rant or express what I think.
So Zola is for now.
