Just existing, someone lost.

Steps: 1- Search for the person's public PGP key. If they don't have one, ask them to make one available. Wait. 2- Create a PGP key with anonymous/random data, or not. 3- Generate a password for the pastebin, open it. 4- Using the person's PGP key, encrypt the following data: 4.1- The subject you want to discuss with them; 4.2- Password used in the pastebin; 4.3- Your public PGP key. 5- Send the encrypted message on the pastebin, and copy the generated link. 6- In the form message, guestbook, or chat, paste the generated pastebin link. 7- Wait some time for a response. 8- You can also send this text.
To respond to a message you have received: 1- Copy the encrypted message to the decryption field. 2- Enter the password (Passphrase) for your key. 3- Read the message, write a response, 4- Using the person's PGP key, encrypt the response. 5- Send the encrypted message on the pastebin. 6- Wait some time for a response to the response.
If you've read this, go ahead and create a PGP key, and upload your public key to some instance of https://privatebin.info/directory/, with time set to permanent, and leave it in your profile description. And NEVER SHARE YOUR PRIVATE KEY!
One day I'm going to make (just kidding) an application that will be a multi-client for various communication protocols between two people or groups, serving as a client for:
E-mail Delta.chat XMPP Matrix SimpleX Chat Briar Sessions Jami Tox Cwtch Speek! Ricochet Refresh Nostr Signal Telegram
The app would take up a little less than 1 GB.
I don't know, I just wanted to talk about these communication methods I know. I think that's what WriteFreely is for, to take a lot of information that's in your head and put it in a place where others can go crazy with your thoughts.
Just a random thought: those who are against using other people's works and materials for AI learning should not be in favor of piracy. They are different cases, but they revolve around the same thing: copyright. It would basically be respecting the rights of those you think deserve respect, but if respect is relative like that, no one deserves it. Using the same weapon that you are opposed to.
I try to control myself, so I don't become a digital account hoarder.
I don't want to fragment my online social presence too much, especially making potential “fans” (I doubt I have any) have to scatter around to find the content I produce. This anxiety isn't just about social media accounts, but digital services in general. Interesting combinations of website domain names, or the service itself, are enough to make me create an account, which in most cases I won't even use, or will use very little.
How I control myself: when I feel like creating an account on a service that I know I don't really need, I take the website URL and bookmark it in a folder in my browser just for that purpose. There are easily more than 70 websites there. And even so, I keep thinking about the service for a while, until this strange urge passes.
The upside is that if a service I use stops existing, I already have at least three others to replace it. 🤣
I like Base64, I like small files, put the two together and we have it: An image 252 bytes in size.

Let's talk about:
“[…] I’ve found that the personal web, for all its creativity, often feels surprisingly homogenous. There are certain aesthetics, narratives, and tastes that tend to dominate, while other perspectives feel underrepresented. It’s rare that I see myself reflected in the sites I come across, and that has made it clear how important it is that I contribute authentically.”

“often feels surprisingly homogenous”
I agree, for example, on Neocities, certain site layouts look very similar, or even the same. But are they popular and does this generate a cyclical herd effect, or do people appreciate them more than other layouts? Perhaps these similar layouts, themes, colors and craziness are an attempt to look different, and end up “different like the others”, and in the end everyone ends up looking a bit alike. Nheee, I don't know.
“certain aesthetics, narratives, and tastes that tend to dominate, while other perspectives feel underrepresented”
I think this has always happened, both on the internet and in human history. Technically, there will always be something more popular than something else. But little by little certain subcultures are becoming cultures, or at least better known than before.
“It’s rare that I see myself reflected in the sites I come across”
Also, LOL.
I like small places; they give a sense of calm, but I know they won't always be like that. It's even good for more people to get to know that place, but a certain nostalgia inside me doesn't really like that idea. We all have our internal conflicts all the time. >_<
