#+filetags: :web:

Like others participating in [[https://robertbirming.com/junited/][Junited]] have mentioned, I recently discovered this
project and love the idea. While the month is more than halfway past, I'll make
sure to update this post with the best links I discover throughout the remainder
of June 2026.

- [[https://hypersubject.net/entries/2026/06/smallweb-is-becoming-an-archipelago/][Smallweb is Becoming an Archipelago]]: Coincidentally, I browse most of these
  websites as well.
- [[https://xvw.lol/en/articles/emacs-start.html][Emacs, how it all started (for me)]]: I *love* hearing stories about Emacs,
  especially from beginners.
- [[https://nelson.cloud/.gitignore-isnt-the-only-way-to-ignore-files-in-git/][.gitignore Isn’t the Only Way To Ignore Files in Git]]: Interesting if you're
  often using Git.
- [[https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/6Xgy6CAf2jqHhynHL/what-2026-looks-like][What 2026 looks like]]: A /beautiful/ web page describing the author's predicted
  future for 2022-2026.
- [[https://milek7.pl/mailverifyspam/][Don’t verify email addresses by sending spam to them]]: /sigh.../
- [[https://danielle.bearblog.dev/apparently-im-not-a-woman-because-i-use-linux/][Apparently I'm not a woman because I use Linux]]: Let's continue breaking down
  walls. There will always be stupid around anyway.
- [[https://inessential.com/2026/06/15/netnewswire-status.html][NetNewsWire Status]]: One of my absolute favorite apps on iOS.
- [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Halen_test][Van Halen Test]]: One of my favorite concepts. I feel like my teachers used this
  often to trick students who wouldn't read through all instructions before
  starting their answers.
- [[https://www.greptile.com/blog/prs-on-openclaw][PR spam today looks like email spam in the early 2000s]]: Have they considered
  simply writing terrible software like I do? Then no one will even care to
  contribute!
- [[https://expression.fire.org/p/the-papers-please-era-of-the-internet][The ‘papers, please’ era of the internet will decimate your privacy]]: I feel
  like we've been warning the public of this message for a decade and yet, here
  we are. Still on the precipice.
- [[https://www.dotcom.press/history-of-domains][A Brief History of Domains]]: A fantastic piece.
