What this site is about

Generally speaking I'll be writing every time about content that seems on my interest. Nowadays ADHD seem to keep my atteniton a lot since i've been recently diagnosed so do expect me to write multiple articles about it. Other interests of mine are fitness, hidradenitis suppurativa, programming, freelancing and I'm an anglophile so I'm quite interested in all things UK like Emmerdale.

What is the subscription model about

This site is not free, it costs me 35 USD per month so I put the subscription model as a way to eventually break even and fund it. I came back to ghost.io when they became ActivityPub enabled. And since I spend most of my social media life on Mastodon this became the perfect blogging platform. Eventually I want to run it on my own servers but right now the fediverse integration is too experimental to run on my own. Hence why I pay instead. Now some canned texts on what subscribing gets you.

Access all areas

By signing up, you'll get access to the full archive of everything that's been published before and everything that's still to come. Your very own private library. Some articles will eventually be paywalled to covert costs. Specially those who consumed more than a day of my time to write.

Fresh content, delivered

Stay up to date with new content sent straight to your inbox! No more worrying about whether you missed something because of a pesky algorithm or news feed. You can do so too by following from mastodon the account @maikel@blog.maikel.dev which is pretty much the handle of this blog.
