+Title: Some website design changes
+Category: Blog
+Date: 2020-01-03

+
+Howdy, it's that time of year again where I apparently do design
+things on this website (the last article is from exactly 2 years ago).
+Apologies if you've never been to my website and only use the [RSS]
+feed. Also: you're cool!
+
+In previous iterations of this series I tended to fundamentally change
+the way that the website worked, either by changing the way that the
+html was generated, or by cutting down/ adding categories. This time
+I'm doing none of that.
+
+Indeed things are getting simpler but mostly on the CSS side of
+things. I was able to delete about half of my CSS which is a pretty
+cool. The biggest change in the way the website looks is the article
+overview and the article pages themselves.
+
+Generally I didn't like the card design style very much anymore so I
+wanted to change that. But I also wanted to make it simpler to see
+all my articles at a glance, without any summaries. I feel this makes
+the blog feel more "web log-y", which I like. It also means it's now
+consistently bright text on dark background and I think I've gotten
+the typography down enough to make it all pretty.
+
+Anyway, there's more things I wanted to do but those will come later.
+I should also point out that my primary code host for this website
+isn't github anymore. It's now hosted on [sourcehut] and
+collaborations are still welcome (if you see a typo or have general
+comments), albeit not with pull requests anymore. You can submit
+patches to my [public inbox] which I have hinted at in a previous
+article.
+
+In post-congress news I seem to have caught a cold, so: bye.
