Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 13/10/2025Currently divesting myself from Vercel. I replatformed gif.land over the weekend. It was Next.js on Vercel and it’s now Astro and Cloudflare. I put a little note up on my blog about the transition jonheslop.com/posts/2025/d... It was my first time building anything with Astro, it’s really nice! 050

Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 14/02/2025This is really nice, been using all morning and it works really well 010
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 05/02/2025Inspired by @ethanmarcotte.com, I’ve made a silly new website called gif.land — an online home for all my favourite GIFs. It’s glued together with Cloudflare R2, a @tur.so SQLite DB and next.js. I’ve blogged about it too: jonheslop.com/posts/2025/gif-landgif.landgif.landMy online memory bank of my favourite gifs 052
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 22/12/2024I love twiglets but they are also totally mental. So dry, so twig like. Imagine offering them to someone who didn’t know the concept nor grown up with them. 020
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 17/11/2024This was also my (our families) first computer, got it on my 10th birthday. I cried 140
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 14/11/2024Whilst it quite exciting watching this get big very quickly, and sure Bluesky’s algo is kinder right now. It reminds me of this brilliant and elegant essay/thing Robin Sloan wrote/built about the inherent problem with runaway engagement and communication at scale www.robinsloan.com/special/plat...robinsloan.comThread by robin on RosegardenAll this suffering, when the fix is so simple. 000
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 14/11/2024Maybe bluesky should be where I post about birds. I saw these two this morning. Deffo not Curlews. Could be be sand pipers but I thought their beaks looked too skinny. So maybe godwits??? 010
Jon Heslop @jonheslop.com · 12/11/2024Finally jumped ship, I somehow was in some twitter bubble where I wasn’t really seeing the grim stuff others seemed to (I never read replies and only looked on following) BUT Twitter mostly died for me when I couldn’t use Tweetbot anymore. Anyhow lets see how it goes over here 👋 060
