Welcome!
Welcome to LIBRE.TOWN! This is Lianna's personal homepage.
Libre Town is a virtual town: my way of both expressing myself online and forming genuine connections with others via the web. In Libre Town, you may find my projects, shrine pages, blog posts, and many more little hypertext surprises.
It is part of the broader "web revival" movement, a loose community of those who reject social media and the modern internet, but still think the World Wide Web has the potential to facilitate amazing things! That's why we create and manage our own personal amateur homepages: our own corners of the World Wide Web. We connect with others through web-rings, chat-rooms, e-mail and the web experience itself.
The web revival can be considered part of hacker culture, a post-modernist art movement, or just a hobby; it's all in the eye of the beholder.
Check out the navigation bar to find out what Libre Town has to offer. Many pages have sub-pages, so feel free to click around!
I hope you enjoy your stay.
A Note on Hyperlinks
As described in the Hypertext Maximalist's Manifesto, there are two types of links on Libre Town. The colorless underlined passages that blend in are complementary hyperlinks leading to further resources, explanations or citations. In contrast, the bold, colorful links are the 'main' hyperlinks, important and essential to the passage's intent.
It is my goal to use this dual system to strike a balance between keeping Libre Town readable and linking to as many relevant, useful or interesting web resources as possible.
Updates / Changelog
- () · Site is on hold for now because I am secretly working on a massive rework improving all levels of Libre Town. Posted an announcement article about it called The 2025 Libre Town Renewal. Check it out to see what's coming!
- () · Added a new blog post called Semantic Websites: Briefly Explained, explaining the concept of Semantic HTML to a general audience. Also added the German translation of the indigenous subculture manifesto, called Wider der Selbstentfremdung: Ein Manifest zugunsten indigener Subkulturen. Also updated the Links page to bring it up to semantic HTML standard and remove broken links.
- () · Added a new blog post called Localise Yourself: A Manifesto For Indigenous Subcultures. All articles on the thoughts page now feature word counts so you don't accidentally stumble into a way-too-long essay and get overwhelmed. Started adding more obscure semantic HTML tags throughout the site to better mark up existing content.
- () · Well... Libre Town's files corrupted on its server. The last backup was taken right before the January update; I had to rebuild the update again with the help of the Web Archive. Sorry for the downtime...
