I’m an Open Source and Open Web advocate, so I make use of ShareOpenly for content sharing to modern, open social networks. The site content is available to read on the Fediverse, and I publish my own, custom site code to Github, as part of a GPL license.
1,210 articles have been published.
It’s running WordPress 7.0-RC2 under PHP 8.5.4, using the Twenty Twenty-Five theme and is proudly hosted by Pressable.
