+Back in 2023 I wrote a post about the small web and how fascinated I was with it. But the post was deleted because I wanted [to become a better writer](/blog/to-become-a-better-writer), so I'm rewriting it! 
+
+Outside the cramped city center of the modern web you'll find the small web, also known as the [IndieWeb](https://indieweb.org/). It's bascially a [universe of discovery](https://werd.io/2025/the-indie-web-should-be-a-universe-of-discovery), filled with so much creativity and individuality.
+
+It feels refreshing [rediscovering the small web](https://neustadt.fr/essays/the-small-web/) through sites like [_bearblog.dev_](https://bearblog.dev/), [_The Forest_](https://theforest.link/), [_512KB Club_](https://512kb.club/), [_Neocities_](https://neocities.org/browse), and so on. People are really building so many cool and fun websites, showing of their interests, creations, songs etc.
+I think [the small web is beautiful](https://benhoyt.com/writings/the-small-web-is-beautiful/) in comparison to the [dead internet souls](https://vickiboykis.com/2024/09/19/dead-internet-souls/). 
+
+Like [Ava](https://avas.bearblog.dev/advocating-for-personal-sites/), I'm advocating for personal sites the best I can. It's so much more fun to see someones website that they've spent time on using all their creativeness, instead of their social media. Additionally, no one needs an account to see your site compared to the traditional social media platforms, and you actually own your own content here!

+Do you need some reasons to have a personal website or want to join the more fun part of the web? Check out Rachels [_"the internet used to be* fun"_](https://projects.kwon.nyc/internet-is-fun/)-project!
