<p><a href="https://maggieappleton.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Maggie Appleton's site</a> is a special place and the work that resonates most with me is the post on <a href="https://maggieappleton.com/garden-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">The Digital Garden</a>. I chanced across Maggie's site following <a href="https://www.komoroske.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Alex Komoroske's</a> <a href="https://partnerhacker.com/067-be-a-gardener-not-a-builder-platforms-ecosystems-and-complexity-with-alex-komoroske/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Be a Gardener, not a Builder</a> and a search on Google led me to Maggie's site.</p>

<p><a href="https://darthmall.net/weblog/2023/rss/">The Darth Mall</a>'s post questioning what we lose by living an RSS only life led me back to Maggie's post on Digital Gardens.</p>
<p>And reading it in on the site was one of the most zen experiences I've had in a while.</p>
