Disabling JavaScript

This website contains very little JavaScript. This is not because I dislike JavaScript (I actually think it's very good at what it does) but because I believe you deserve to have spaces on the web that do you nothing more than what you asked from them. Most likely you came here to read words on a screen, so I will give you that and only that. I occasionally use embeds or interactive features, but if you would like to disable JavaScript your experience on this website should be near-identical.

Link Rot

Circumstances permitting, I am committed to maintaining the links to the homepage and the blog posts. So https://thefloatingcontinent.com/blog/death-of-the-social-network is safe to link to, but https://thefloatingcontinent.com/about might change.

Accessibility

I have done my best to use semantically-appropriate HTML that meets web accessibility standards. If you use assitive technology to access this website and there is something I can do to improve that experience, please reach out.
