I started making content on the internet a little before social media took off, so if you wanted to put stuff online you needed your own site. These days it seems a bit old fashioned, no?
This makes me feel old, but you’re right it is a bit old fashioned. These days though with all the social media fumbles and large scale migrations I think having a personal website could be a good plan again.

It’s always been normal to me. I tend to get a bit annoyed when webcomics don’t have their own site.

I’ve seen a lot of creators advocating for starting and getting ready to run a personal site - given the state of most big social media sites today.
Beats getting randomly kicked/shadowbanned/enshittified by your social media provider. Honestly, I’m just waiting for github pages to get removed. 😅
