Why invest into a personal site rather than just have a social media presence?

@kevquirk shared his thoughts on the matter which inspired me to add my own on top.

@hamatti @kevquirk
I'd love to set up a site that's truly my own, but it's nearly impossible if you're not a tech person. I wish the other 80% of people could do this without having to spend months learning and troubleshooting this stuff.

@KentNavalesi @kevquirk You're right. For a completely own, it does require either a tech-savvy friend or a lot of time to explore how to set up own site.

I think there are valuable middle steps though: for example setting up a hosted site or blog with custom domain using sites like Wordpress.com, BearBlog.dev, Pika.page or Micro.blog.

@hamatti @KentNavalesi @kevquirk there's also toot.io and masto.host that you dont really need technology knowledge...🤷‍♂️
