Feeling welcome here makes a big difference. Compare to birdsite, less than half that in years of use.

Thanks, #fediverse !

NOT Working. 😞

Visited domain site, and it's offline.

Found this morning. Many good resources, all linked from this page.

Check your Birdsite account, and the Toot should be there.

Screen capture confirms Success.

...as a simpler toot net has Success!

Watch the Toot Editor for the extension's post report. Here showing one that made it there. 🆗

alas, the message above, my first test -- did not work.

Twitter returns an Authenticate error message. I think they block the content really.

Cross-post you Toot directly from Mastodon to Twitter, aka Birdsite? *Easy* with browser extension.

* Firefox one here: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/birdsite/

* Chrome if you prefer: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/birdsite/lfmfhaopllgidldpmifdcjdckdggdjaj

Clients for Mastodon, Pleroma instances? Mac, Linux, Windows supported.

* Whalebird * has some nice features -- like shortcuts for really quick replies, resizable Feed window widths.

A long and rich article which Dr Dejahang posted here yesterday. ( https://qoto.org/@drdej555/103239575953234069 )I read thru and he covers a wide variety of implications. A good read, requires focus.

Images for the Web, forum posts, etc.

Choose your formats - we can help make faster loading webpages, reduce traffic if we chose the best format for images we include in our posts.

I noticed a lag on loading an image included in another website I linked to (in this status: https://qoto.org/@design_RG/103240153529603948 )

Didn't feel right, and it *wasn't*

I use Irfanview to edit, crop, compress images which I like to include in my posts here.

Had noticed the variations, on how sometimes PNG can produce significantly smaller files than the older JPEG format.

Sometimes it's the opposite - JPEG handles life imagery, more complex, better, giving smaller finished images.

Make a point to chose the best format - and be part of keeping things running as fast as possible.

A couple of examples follow, the original page image was a PNG, weighing a hefty *600 KiloBytes*, a bit too much for me.

See the Information boxes for the original PNG, and the improved JPEG, MUCH smaller.

I use the RIOT plugin with Irfanview, and it's a great combo. Both free, small, easy to learn and use. Recommended!

It happens to both #introverts *and* #extroverts. Here's why.
