Published my blog post on the e-learning forum, so hopefully I can attract more people here.

@globcoco Imagine the wonder of being a Kitten and finding such a nice hidding spot! 😘

"Almost 14,000 plants, seeds and growing kits are being distributed during lockdown as part of a city-wide campaign to encourage people to grow their own vegetables." https://www.wales247.co.uk/thousands-inspired-to-grow-food-at-home-during-cardiff-lockdown/

For those wondering what the alternatives to command-and-control are, perhaps look beyond military analogies and turn to something like #sociocracy and consent-based decision making:

Some people believe that respect should be shown within a hierarchy.

However, if you do not believe in hierarchies, if you believe in servant leadership instead, then respect is earned through actions and words, rather than position on an org chart.

To start us off, here's a #FollowFriday post of interesting #Fediverse accounts to follow:

🌟 @Krita - Wonderful free open painting software

🌟 @Fairphone - Makers of Fairtrade mobile phones

🌟 @libreoffice - Makers of LibreOffice, the free open office suite

🌟 @omgubuntu - Articles about Ubuntu, Linux and open software

🌟 @k9mail - FLOSS email app for Android, its development has recently become more active after a break

🌟 @briar - A confidential messaging system for Android

@hansw @Sphinx The British have some of the prettiest spoken English all around. (Some of their regional variations are not that friendly, and outright hard to understand in some cases).

I love their ways, not only the spoken word, but the creative and unexpected turns of phrase -- so refreshing compared to the less creative US speech and writing.

I just watched a YouTube video about a Briton teaching English online, she apologized for the Accent discrimination of her videos before.
I feel like Accent discrimination perhaps is a little too much. I believe there is different English pronunciation type. And there is a correct way to say each word.
I remember used to saw a quote was like this: never laugh at someone who cannot speak English very well. Because that means they can speak another language very fluently .

Eyyy, so to introduce myself.

I'm a minimalist and I like keeping simple things simple.

Been doing web dev for over ten years and I try to avoid dependencies whenever possible. Vanilla CSS with some JavaScript that's lean is better than any framework.

Code itself is technical debt. Less code is less debt.

Hobbies include laying on my couch thinking I should be more productive, writing long winded essays, staring at my always growing pile of books, and trying to find fellow humans online.

Better Together, #Kittens .

For my first post today, I want to send a bouquet to Nolan, the developer of the Pinafore web app for Mastodon and Pleroma. Thanks for creating such a brilliant freedom-respecting UX!

#Pinafore # Mastodon #Pleroma #UX

I love @pinafore. It has a simple and uncluttered UI, it is *absurdly* fast, and yet it retains all the main features of Mastodon. Also, the golden standard for webapps: it does not break the back button in the browser. What a beautiful piece of software you created here, @nolan, thank you!

Wow, now this IS a long course 84 hours.
