ludv's homepage

Hi, I'm ludv. I like the internet. I dislike to see the internet being torn apart by corporate greed.

I enjoy osu! btw.

My content is no longer available on the web

TL;DR. Because of generative AI's assault on the web, I have decided to shut down access to my homepage through HTTP. It's now exclusively available on the Geminispace through the Gemini protocol.

Previously, a reverse proxy has been set up on this website as a means to make my Geminicapsule available through HTTP. That meant that when you accessed my site, you were actually seeing the contents of my Geminicapsule.

That reverse proxy has now been taken down. The why? of what made me take down the reverse proxy is best described in these below linked articles. The first two blog posts are must-reads.

• Drew DeVault's blog: Please stop externalizing your costs directly into my face
• Wikimedia's blog: How crawlers impact the operations of the Wikimedia projects


• Freya Holmér on YouTube: Generative AI is a Parasitic Cancer

How do I access the homepage now?

It's not hard. And you should do it. But to be realistic I know that 98 % of people seeing this page are not going to do it, and that's fine.

If you're completely new to the Gemini protocol, this page linked below gives a good introduction.

My Gemcapsule can be found at gemini://ludver.se/ (link).
