A wiki cataloguing those things small and mundane that I find useful to revisit from time to time.

• The miscellany of tags offers a more curated collection of tags to explore.

Reading

In 2022 I started keeping reading lists of all the books I read in a year.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks are a core part of how I internet. I export my bookmarks to make sure I don’t loose them.
