Low Tech Magazine runs on a single solar panel. We take for granted just how much energy is needed to keep up with our digital footprint. The tenet of the magazine is to radically reimagine our technology in more sustainable ways. The website has solar panel data so you can see how charged the website is. Running on solar means the website does go offline at times when the sun isn't out. In a world where access to information is so ubiquitous, it's really cool to have a website that isn't always going to be online.

*extremely* techy rec here but this is like a webring for sites that have less than 512kb of uncompressed data total. so many websites now just dump a fucking truckload of bullshit on you (ads, analytics, fonts, way too much js) just so you can read one goddamn text article, and it's really invigorating to see developers push back on this lazy, ecologically destructive habit. i just added my own personal site (219.83kb 🕶️) and if you have a site that qualifies i recommend you join the cause

and then share it anyway. the people who like it will be grateful you did. who cares if people don’t like it? you didn’t make it for them.
