What does Hilary Clinton have to do with this?
Its someong taking something that exists in culture and is "cool" (dabbing) and doing it in a weird / lame / cringey way.
Similarly this site has a lot of the astehtic trappings and language of indieweb et al. but (IMO) doesn't stick the landing. And it comes off a little as the cool culture being exploited by someone who doesn't get it.
Idk if they're doing it in a greedy or sinister way, like when corporations co-opt social movements or big brands use the "quirky local indie" astehtic. It's probably someone well meaning with different taste than me. But the site does rub me the wrong way regardless
Wow, thank you for the explanation. I was taking it literally and had no idea what the parent was talking about.
i am grateful that at least one person other than me got the memo on my bit lmao
you're right, it might not be intentionally malicious, but it still comes off as wrong due to the visual and mechanical design of the service. if you want to support smallweb, it's better to host a VPS service than a shittier linktree.
