On June 3, I wrote a Toot at my new account, found late on the previous night. (the busy tabs list mentioned is the banner above)
A picture of my busy Tabs list in #Waterfox browser shows that I really was looking for some good GlitchSocial instances.
Had been intensively searching for a list (non-existant, afaik) of Glitch-Social instances. They tend to be blended in with generic mastodon ones, so it was quite a chore. In a Blog page about this, I wrote:
[ I WILL provide that list soon — there is a need ]
A Powerful and Light, FAST client for Mastodon, etc...
Originally posted as a sequence of Toots from my account at Koyu.Space, this was well received, appreciated by the Pinafore client's Author and I think is quite informative.
There's a lack of good reporting and documentation on many projects in the Fediverse.
Same as you, I first learned about MarkDown upon getting started with blogging – using the Write.Freely software, which is the free open source version of the Write.as blog.
This morning I stumbled across an interesting blog, and in it, a reference to a good markdown text editor.
Have tried others before, and not for long; I am familiar with the MD tags, and work well with the EditPad Lite text editor, or from inside the nice Dark Themed Write.freely blog editor, if I am composing a new blog page.
Marina create this new project last month, November 2020, and it's got some really interesting aspects – a very simple approach, pure html source code, allowing people to learn and get familiar with the inner workings of the Web.
It is a minimalist approach, intentionally – as opposed to the heavy and too complex situation we see with WordPress and other large publishing platforms.
Verdana is a humanist sans-serif typeface designed by Matthew Carter for Microsoft Corporation. This typeface was originally release with Windows 98 as part of our vision to significantly improve on screen reading time.

Many times we need a place to store our Images, online
Finding some free Image Hosting for Forum, Mastodon and Blog Posts — it's something needed by many of us, when we get active in Forums, etc.
I had to find a place to host images for my Blog pages, as my usual WriteFreely platform does not offer the option of uploading an image to the server.
Have used different ones over the years, and back in December 2019, when I was starting the new Blog, went and spent a day looking for what's available, their features, etc.
Yesterday I came across a small blog, posted at Neocities.org, which I found interesting. It was created using 'Zonelets' – which I hadn't heard about until now.
A bit of link following and I discovered a wonderful new project, which I am now trying out for small posts, hosted at Neocities as well.
