+## Information for people wishing to use this repository
+
+While this is fairly just static site (with CI configs and even Cloudflare Pages references)
+and not licensed under the Zlib license ([context from Xe/site repo][zlib-chaos]), please don't
+just fork this repo unless you know what you're REALLY doing.

+
+If you're pretty serious, please keep several things in mind:
+
+- You must heavily edit the Markdown content of the website. Make your own personal user manual and portfolio,
+or heck even go nuts on the homepage.[^1]
+- Blog posts I written in Gemini version are licensed under CC-BY-SA-4.0,
+[as mentioned below](#legalese) unless specified otherwise.
+But [for the love of god], please use your own blog posts when writing for
+Gemini users instead.
+- For the favicon, use your own profile picture or pick/make another one.

+[^1]: Please keep it SFW, since you don't want to get that censored by the MTRCB, right?
+
+**Looking for a template instead with same Mkdocs theme?** No problem! [I contributed one at lorebooks.wiki's GitHub org](https://github.com/lorebooks-wiki/mkdocs-material-template)
+with some fine defaults, alongside a blog section if you prefer.
