This is a reply from my comment section to @starrwulfe@vivaldi.net and I had to do too much to respond from here… But I’ll fix this later.

I have an Instagram account exclusively for keeping in touch with family and friends back in 🇨🇴. I’d log in once or twice a month, but today I was greeted with this: And now I don’t have an Instagram account 🤷🏽‍♂️

Probably because somebody has been trying to spoof your account. Do you have 2-factor turned on?

↩️ Reply to: How I Became A Micro.blogger

Something happened on the internet again. A guy who likes to tweak his blog theme totally switched platforms, moving from one host to another in haste and inadvertently breaking some links. And it’s basically Elon Musk's fault.

I think you’ve perfectly nailed my exact reaction to stumbling upon this community myself in the waning days of 2022. The community, constant support and feedback plus the ease of taking suggestions from said community and implementing ones that line up with the overall goal of microblogging while maintaining privacy and nixing the gimmicks and addictive behaviors inherent in other social media platforms… this is the place to be!

Update: There's a new plugin for custom CSS. I hope that is a first helpful step. Feel free to share your thoughts!

Thanks @jlelse! Going to pull down the changes and see if I can’t do a little light customization here.

I have some other ideas I’d like to ask about in terms of improving GoBlog if it’s ok… Can I make separate issues for them?

Have a GoBlog feature idea… run it by Jan-Lukas… 15 minutes later it’s implemented. And so the cycle repeats… #GoBlog rules 👏🏽

For real?

Hang on, I got a list! 📝

Thought of the moment:

Should the “chef’s kiss” in emoji form be:

  1. 😚 🤏🏾
  2. 🧑‍🍳 💋

🤔 What do y’all think?

Welp, that’s what I get for horsing around and getting saddled with being the pun-police… 🐴 …I tend to let myself get roped into these threads too easily…

👍🏽 Liked: The Hard Truth About Home (and Car) Ownership

Do you own a house? Is there a mortgage on the house? Are there any loans, lines or credit, leans, or other financial instruments secured on that house? Then you don’t really own that house. The bank (or mortgage company) does. Do you own a car? Do you make payments on a loan for that car? Then you don’t really own the car. The bank (or lending company) does. If you don’t believe me, then stop making payments and see just how quickly that thing you “own” is taken away. In fact, banks, mortgag…

The weekly report from Digital Wellbeing on my phone informs me that the daily average screen time was 20 minutes less than last week’s. And I am pleased to see that trend has been downwards for the last few weeks. I uninstalled YouTube from my phone a few weeks back, which is one of the key reasons for lowered usage. YouTube sucks away time without you noticing. The best way I know to control this beast is to not be available to you. The web app is a pain enough to not be distracting. So jus…

YouTube has kind of become my learning resource lately so my time has gone up a fair bit recently.

  • One of my goals for 2023 is to learn a new programming language (Go) and become more proficient in one I know a little about (Python). In addition to reading materials, YouTube coding sessions have really helped to visualize not just the language but tools and aesthetics surrounding them.
  • I’m an armchair urbanist and watching videos made by creators like @notjustbikes@notjustbikes.com and @nerd4cities@mstdn.social gives me life. In fact I don’t watch a lot of “mainstream” TV because I’m a documentary and factoid nerd and content like this is 80% of my playlists.
  • YouTube is also the biggest repository of Lofi music on the internet and it’s the background sound of my existence at the moment, so you’re bound to hear it piped into whatever space I’m occupying while reading, sipping coffee, working and sometimes sleeping. YouTube is how it streams in most cases…

TLDR; I would be SOL if YouTube and Google started spazzing out like Twitter is right now… 🙄

📽 Watched Hugo, (2011) - ★★★½

I wasn’t expecting this film to be the almost-tearjerker it wound up being but it managed to pull at several heartstrings. Then again, I also didn’t know Martin Scorsese directed and produced it either. Like all his films, it moves slowly at first while gathering strength and backstory in the first act (should’ve been my first clue right there!)
