+Title: Moving onward to 2023
+Date: 1/2/2023 10:30
+
+As I try to get myself back into something that resembles a routine after the
+holiday break I started to poke around at some things that have been needing
+attention.  It seems that my microblog to gemini renderer has been broken for
+about a month.  A quick fix and it seems to be functioning but that gave me
+an excuse to tweak the overall layout.  Previously I rendered gemtext headings
+for the years and the months, leaving the individual entries as just simple
+paragraphs, however it seems more logical to expose individual entries so
+you can navigate the in-reply-to chain using your user-agent, assuming it
+has the ability to navigate headings (Lagrange does).
+
+I admit I mostly ignored this capsule last year, writing only 6 posts.  In
+reviewing the statistics I generate a few things popped out to me that I
+found interesting.  It seems that robots.txt is completely useless as the
+ #1 hit on my capsule seems to be crawlers trying to traverse the git
+repository interface (about 20k hits / month), while actual posts account
+for tens of hits per month (gemlog posts being about 50 / month and other
+pages like the generated stats pages are 20-30 / month).  The gemlog
+atom feed is about 2 orders of magnitude more popular than the microblog
+feed.  I don't know if this is indicative of actual use or if it is
+because of differences in crawler behaviors.  The most common error code
+served by a long shot was 51, and other than the crawler screwing around
+in the git repository, they all appear to be a client mishandling relative
+links in the Thoughts microblog page trying to load attachments from /
+instead of /thoughts/.  I guess poorly implemented clients are at least
+indicative of continued interest and experimentation in the Gemini
+protocol, so that's a good thing!

+
+Anyway, as always, if something is overtly broken, useful, or interesting
+feel free to reach out.  I still get a few messages a month of the silly
+VFD display so that is still running on my desk and does bring a smile
+to my face when I notice it lit up.
