Thank you, Mastodon, for not being owned and controlled by a narcissistic billionaire with bad intentions.

@gpowerf Ability to have a chronological feed of *just* the people I follow would be a start..

Too much of tech journalism is creating narratives where either everything is terrible or everything is fantastic.

ChatGPT is less than a year old and we have no idea what its yearly usage trends are. With schools out for summer, perhaps lots of high school & college students are using it less and traffic will return in two months?

Way too early to claim AI revolution is now over due to one data point.

My new favourite thing is this set of #Edifier S360DB #speakers.

My last bit of migrating away from Apple is getting rid of the Apple TV and my HomePod. My #Linux machine is now my HTPC, and with mpd running I have my vast flac collection on hand with a similar level of convenience to the HomePod.

Now I need a decent remote I can use with Jellyfin, and an easy way to route my record player's output through my speakers 🤔

Mastodon went from 1.2M active users last week to 1.8M active users this week. That's not 70M users overnight, but it's something! 🙂

What the what, you guys! My emoji domain 💁💁.ws is up for renewal shortly. Last year it was £29. This year they want £45! That’s a crazy leap 💩

I finally rolled credits on the "Guardians of the Galaxy" video games tonight on my Steam Deck. I've felt like I've been on the cusp of beating it for weeks by now. Damn fun game. I highly recommend it.

Yo! My first IRL friend has joined Mastodon! We out here! #Welcome and a shout to @j_drayn!

If anyone has tips on how to get the most starting out for him, please feel free to share! (I’m relatively new myself so it could help me too!)

"agree to disagree" means I'm right but I'm tired

I just want to say for my first post to the #Fediverse that I've already seen more #alttext in the last couple of days than I've literally seen in my entire life. I don't know what it is, but as a blind user it's making me emotional to be able to actually interact with content. Think I'll write an introduction soon.
