SEEKING WORK - Remote - A designer who can code! I have 10 years of experience in Fin-Tech and over 14 years combined in Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more. I've worked for clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others. I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar to name a few. I pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products. Case studies are on my website: https://gilli.is.

I can provide the following for you:

- UX/UI Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of your product, I can design it.

- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product. This is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the result since there is less wasted effort. I've worked with a wide range of frontend and backend technologies and can hit the ground running on new projects. I pick up new tech quickly, which makes it easy for me to adapt to different environments.

- Analysis — Your users, know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.

- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit, and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go for free.

I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.

That's a nice way to bring attention to the many interesting blogs that exist.


This is why I like how Bluesky handles it, you can use your own domain name. So I simply got @gilli.is, no reason for anyone ever to take that away from me.


Same thing applies to Email, XMPP, Matrix, SIP, ActivityPub servers... nothing special about bluesky.


What is special about bluesky is that you don't have to host the service yourself (or pay a third party) for it to work.


Someone, somehow is paying for bluesky's servers and data. TANSTAAFL.

Google was running my email server with custom domain for years, free of charge. I think that it is still grandfathered in for those that signed for Google Apps early on. IT doesn't mean that the "email is free".


But can you host it ? (Can't find much on federation).

I use fastmail and a custom domain for my email. If I'm unhappy with the service I can migrate or host it.

If you can't leave having your own domain is not much help.

Note: I believe webfinger are supported by Mastodon too, so not so special of a feature.


And then some guy took the AWS S3 domain: https://chaos.social/@jonty/110307532009155432


That's just mildly exploiting the fact that social engineering on DNS infra is not yet popular. Once everyone starts doing that, the black hats just move onto the DNS platform and we will all be worse off.
