Your Small Web place was not deployed by Domain.
Here are some ways you can deploy your site.
Using Domain:
Use an existing Small Web host like small-web.org.
Run your own instance of Domain and deploy using that.
On any computer that runs Linux[1]:
Deploy your site to any server (like a tiny single-board computer or your own VPS server somewhere) using Kitten’s deploy command.
With systemd (this is not some political statement; it’s just easier for us to support with limited resources). We recommend Alma Linux as that’s what we deploy with at small-web.org but it should work with any Linux with systemd. ↩︎](https://friendica.hellquist.eu/photo/preview/640/2690252 "Screenshot of same page showing the Domain section:

We can have different tech if we have different ideologies underpinning it. e.g., Small Tech:

What is the Small Web?
Updated June 19th, 2023 Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos. But that doesn’t mean you can’t watch it! You can download Small Is Beautiful #23 directly, and watch it with your favourite video player.Aral Balkan
Lots to do yet but the new Kitten¹ settings section (that’s common to all Kitten apps / Small Web places) is coming along nicely. (With the general style/layout borrowed from Domain².)
(It’s currently a single page and I’m breaking it up into multiple ones because it’s time.)
Once I’m done with this I should really record a screencast of Kitten’s new backup and restore feature/data portability.

So @laura is giving a talk on Small Technology* at @marcthiele’s Beyond Tellerrand conference in Düsseldorf (May 13-14):
Sounds like it’s about to be sold out.

Hello! We’re a tiny and independent two-person not-for-profit based in Ireland. We are building the Small Web. No, it’s not web3, it’s web0.Small Technology Foundation
JSDB 5.1.0 published¹ 🎉
• Forgetting to pass a custom class that’s persisted in your database in your `JSDB.open()` call now throws instead of corrupting your database by falling back to using an untyped object.
• Added JSDF ver. 2 to 3 database migration script (i.e., JSDB version 2-4 to 5)²
To install update:
npm install @small-tech/jsdb@5.1.0

JSDB 5.0.1 published 🎉
• Fixes #14: Crash if DataProxy getHandler() called on object with null prototype. (https://codeberg.org/small-tech/jsdb/issues/14)
To install update:

To really drive home the above 👆 point that 100% test coverage does not mean ‘bug free’, just found a bug in JSDB¹ 5.0.0 where running JSON.stringify() on a complex custom object (actually: the automatic Proxy of the custom object created by JSDB) results in an error.
Already have a failing test and about to implement fix.
(It’s at this point where the test harness is invaluable.)

Realised last night that JavaScript Database (JSDB) doesn’t run the constructor on persisted custom objects (https://codeberg.org/small-tech/jsdb#custom-data-types) when deserialising them because I didn’t know that you apparently have to define your constructor manually when using Object.create().
Will fix it today but it’s something to watch out for if you’re using Object.create() directly.

So what do we need, ideally? The equivalent of VC but for tech for the common good.
Pick ten organisations working the common good and give them €5M each. Let them experiment. Let them pivot. Let them cooperate. The only thing you don’t let them do is exit. You can’t sell. Build something for the commons that will live on for the next ten, twenty, fifty years… if not more.
