New Blog, sort of...

Over the last few days I've been working with the excellent #bssg static site generator from @stefano to rebuild my personal blog.

The content remains the same, my random blurb, but I'm afraid I didn't think about page names until it was too late so the new blog is live and the page names have changed so anyone who subscribes by RSS is about to get a batch of new looking pages appear. Sorry about that.

One thing I have managed to get working is full page content in the rss feed (something I failed at with Hugo multiple times), something I now many of you (ok, just @neil ) was asking for so that will also likely cause a splurge of new articles to suddenly appear that you've probably already read. Sorry.

It looks like I have some cleanup work to do on a few pages but that shouldn't affect the main site content, I hope.

@pugmiester don't know if it's a your server problem or a me problem but when I tried to add your RSS to FreshRSS i got the following error:-
A feed could not be found at `martin.hatstand.org.uk/rss.xml`; the status code is `200` and content-type is `application/octet-stream` [martin.hatstand.org.uk/rss.xml]

@mort8088 I've found a few hints online for changing mime types on the server side that seems like it should make a difference but I can't tell if it does.

If you happen to be a loose end, would you mind trying again?

@mort8088 that's great news. Thanks. Weirdly, I'm still getting a default download when I test locally but other sites give me an in browser view of the XML so it wasn't clear anything had changed. Thanks for checking.
