Trying to level up my bio link setup because Linktree feels kinda stiff for what I want to do. I’ve been tweaking my branding this year and I need something that lets me mess with colors, layouts, maybe even some light animations without feeling boxed in. I’m running a mix of art commissions and small merch drops, so having more control would help a ton. If anyone’s found a link-in-bio tool that lets you get creative without needing to code like a pro, I’d love to hear what’s working for you.
 
I ran into the same dead-end once, and the cause was a broken link on the site rather than my browser. After the admin fixed it, the page loaded fine. If you’re trying to reach details about ID protection, the section at https://www.disabilityid.co.uk/security-features/ worked smoothly for me and gave me what I needed, so it’s a good spot to double-check while the main link gets sorted.

What are your favorite name day traditions?

I’ve always loved the tradition of celebrating name days. In my family, they’re just as meaningful as birthdays, and sometimes even more fun because they bring everyone together in a different way.

When a big name day comes around, especially one that several family members share, we often turn it into a full family gathering. For example, on a name day like Nick/Nikolas, where there might be multiple people celebrating, it becomes almost like a mini family holiday. Someone hosts, there’s plenty of food, and everyone comes by to wish the celebrants “chronia polla.”

I also like the simplicity of the tradition. Even if there isn’t a big gathering, people still call or send messages to acknowledge the day.

Do you celebrate name days in your family? And are there certain ones that turn into larger celebrations because several people share the name?

Greek Easter Celebrations in Greece?

I’ve been thinking a lot about Greek Easter lately and realized I don’t actually know what it’s like to experience it in Greece itself.

I grew up with the traditions here, like church services, red eggs, the midnight “Christos Anesti,” and of course the big Sunday feast, but I’m curious how it all feels in Greece. Is the atmosphere different? More intense? More communal?

What are the days leading up to Easter like there, especially Holy Week? Are there specific customs, processions, or local traditions that stand out depending on the region?

I’ve also heard things about candles at midnight, fireworks, and entire towns participating, how true is that?

Would love to hear from anyone who has experienced it in Greece or grew up there. What are the moments that really define Greek Easter for you?

What was school like in Greece?

I’m Greek, but I never actually went to school in Greece. I only spent summers there growing up. Lately, though, I’ve become really curious about what everyday school life is actually like.

I have close Greek friends who are moving back to Greece permanently, and they have two young children (ages 5 and 7) who will be entering the Greek school system. It made me realize how little I really know about the day-to-day experience beyond what I remember from being around cousins in the summer.

For those of you who went to school in Greece: what was it like, especially in the early years? How structured is the school day? What’s the relationship like between teachers and students? And how do kids generally adjust socially?

I’m genuinely curious what those first school years might feel like for them!

Village Storytelling Traditions in Greece?

I’m curious — are there still village storytelling traditions in Greece?

My family originally came from a few small mountain villages, but we’ve been in the U.S. for several generations now, and we don’t really have anyone left back in Greece to ask about this. I’ve been thinking about visiting someday, and I keep wondering: if I went to those villages, would there still be older people who share stories the way our grandparents used to?

I don’t mean just local history from books or museums — I’m thinking more about personal stories, folktales, myths, or even funny old family anecdotes passed down out loud.

Does that kind of thing still exist in rural Greece today? Would it be welcomed if I asked about it while visiting, or is it something that has faded away with time?

I’d love to know what to expect and how to approach it respectfully.
