So I love reading personal blogs. I have been enjoying Substacks and blogs I found but lately I am longing for more diversity. Almost all the blogs I can find are from the West.

Can any of you recommend me any good personal blogs written by South East Asians (especially Malaysians) or other Asians? I seem to find that Malaysians like to blog about three things: Food, politics and money 😂 I prefer not to read those, tho food doesn’t hurt I suppose but will get a bit tired after a while

I prefer genuinely personal blogs that are slice of life stuff. If you know of any please recommend to me! 🙏

    well there are wikis, but that may be a bit overkill, and there aren’t many free wiki hosters left nowadays.

    perhaps more suitable would be collaborative editing/note-taking platforms. there are the open source ones like etherpad and hedgedoc, where you can choose (or even self-host) your own instance (here’s the public instance list for etherpad and hedgedoc). there’s also notion, which I think the admin team here uses, so you can probably ask them for more information, but that’s a centralized platform.

    edit: by the way, what resources are you using to learn git? I enjoyed reading this, and found it helpful (it helps that at least one of the examples they use is a story writing one, and the software itself is more interactive out-of-the-box than git) even though it is not exactly git (but still in the same category; windows and macosx binaries available at official site in case you find it interesting).

    edit 2: anyway, I feel distributed version control is still best learnt collaboratively (it was invented to solve such a problem anyway), so if you ever get bored of typing commands into the terminal, let me know.
