Another one I love is philosopher.life, aka "h0p3's wiki" where this guy h0p3 shares his personal thoughts philosophies and personal online interactions. It's really charming and interesting and a real throwback to the "old Web" of personal websites.

Wow that website (https://philosopher.life https://philosopher.life) has an incredibly soothing UI. I don't know if it's the "old web" part of it that's doing it for me or what, but I really like the theme.

  btw, this is made with (in?) TiddlyWiki (https://tiddlywiki.com/ https://tiddlywiki.com/)

    Yes, it is. TW is amazing! Even a skiddie like me can make it work. It's extremely portable, flexible, and enduring. I owe a great deal to the fantastic Tiddlywiki community.

Well, hello there! That's extremely high praise. Thank you. You're making your way into the ℍ𝕪𝕡𝕖𝕣𝔱𝔢𝔵𝔱 too. =) It's a pleasure to speak with you. Conversation is a sacrament (and an art well beyond me). I hope to capture what I love about the web: people who make life worth living. For those who haven't already seen them (these people are rockstars), I'm also a huge fan of my beloved: https://wiki.waifu.haus/ https://wiki.waifu.haus/, https://sphygm.us/ https://sphygm.us/, and https://kickscondor.com/ https://kickscondor.com/ - these treasures inspire me quite a bit.

  Thanks so much - it would be a privilege and an honour to be included in your wiki :) Kickscondor was actually the person who first led me to your site - I enjoy their content too. I'll check out these other two as well, thank you! Gwern's also a really interesting and passionate Internet Person, though I know you've had some interactions with him so I'm just mentioning him for the benefit of others. I've run into a couple of other treasures in my time but I'm not consistent enough at maintaining a PKM to have them to hand sadly. Maybe someday I'll start a public personal wiki of my own!

  Just a note: it would be nice if the color changing of the shapes at bottom left could be disabled, perhaps by tapping/clicking them. Reading the site on mobile, my eye keeps getting drawn to them, distracting me from what I'm looking at. On desktop, I'd use a user script/style or nuke everything extension to remove it, but that's not possible on mobile webviews.

    Hi there. Thank you for your note. If you head to either https://philosopher.life/#%24%3A%2Fthemes%2Ftiddlywiki%2Fvanilla%2Fthemetweaks https://philosopher.life/#%24%3A%2Fthemes%2Ftiddlywiki%2Fvan... or https://philosopher.life/#Wiki.gif https://philosopher.life/#Wiki.gif - you can change it to whatever you prefer (including just deleting it). That should work on mobile as well.
