Just a quick test of using an “Aside” post format to write and share a quick thought on my rebooted site, which is back to using WordPress.
And yes, I am using the best stock WordPress theme there has ever been, Twenty Fifteen. 😄

How did I not know that I could subscribe to an atom feed in Amfora,
the gemini protocol browser I use? 🤦
And how did I not realise I could create an atom feed for my blog posts
and microblog with Kiln! 🤦
All fixed now, both blog and microblog now have atom feeds for gemini
and https protocols.

Svelte 5 runes are going to be awesome! 🎉
I've definitely hit some of the pain points that runes seek to address.
In particular, the $derived rune will simplify a whole bunch of code for me
that currently necessitates using $: along with passing extra variables into
a function to ensure reactive values flow.
Being able to refactor some reactive code out to JavaScript files will also
be a big win, some of our script tags are getting a little unwieldy.
Really looking forward to getting my hands on Svelte 5 and doing a little bit
of code gardening next time I hit some code that can be simplified by runes.
