Here's an idea for Mastodon quote posts which I don't think would upset any of the anti-quote lobby: allow me to quote just my own posts

This would enable one of my key purposes of quoting: it would allow me to create navigation paths between my own content, including letting me reply to someone to point them to something I had previously answered

Set myself a 2023 goal of cycling 4000 miles in a year, which is going to be a challenge, but so it should be. In my last year of cycle commuting a long time ago, 4000 miles was the amount I hit just getting to and from work and where I lived then there were hills, now I have no excuse in the flat lands.🚴‍♀️

I need to do something to get off my fat arse and shed some of my 206lbs/93kg and get back to a healthier weight. 😬

Vanilla OS...looks really good. vanillaos.org Clean GNOME, Ubuntu base, immutability, atomic updates, integrated driver manager, Distrobox, support for choice of Snap, Flatpak, AppImage.

HAVING KIDS
• expensive & boring
• they will live with you for 18 years

So I understand that the bird site has started blocking links to common/known Mastodon instances, and that doesn't seem like free speech to me. So... I did a thing.

If you go to spacekaren.sucks it is now a URL shortener that blocks the twitter user agent. That means you can share that link that will redirect to your Mastodon account without the pouty baby stopping you. If you find this helpful can you boost so others can find it? #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #Musk #introduction

Twitter is now blocking links to pixelfed!

Can you spot on my watch where the email with the messed up contract extension came through?

Bad fridays aside, the stuff these watches can monitor these days is super impressive.

Musk successfully built a thriving community. On Mastodon.
