@trinsec absolutely almost no one I know can see me as their servers block qoto, and it is too frustrating being invisible. I do not know why I ended up choosing Qoto, it was too early in the morning, several months ago.... I do not know why other servers block this one though, any ideas?
#qoto does not work properly guys, all my actual #friends who were trying to find me on #Mastodon said I didn't show up, and when I tried to link to my #followers here to my new #instance, searching for #qoto no-one shows up. Not sure what has happened, but if you see this #toot and want to carry on following me, go to @mandaroza@mastodonapp.uk
https://mastodonapp.uk/@mandaroza and hopefully it will work ok.
Just found this incredible bit of squeezebox playing on a 14 year old YouTube clip (with only one sided audio) ... a French box player playing an Irish set of tunes. No shoulder straps ... I think the instrument is made by Eric Martin. What amazing touch and feel!

@sfierbaugh most families I know have children who are ill, this is the time of year for retreating into one’s own den, not arranging play dates and mingling with other families. Wait until it is warmer and sunny outside, fresh air, not mixing in germ-ridden rooms.
"Some people with long COVID are trying to push through the pain and keep their jobs. But some find that they don’t have as much stamina as they used to or they need to take more frequent breaks. To an outside observer, that might seem like laziness."

@purplepadma @fkamiah17 I'm sorry it's something you're subjected to, but please note there is a block option as part of the report process.
If they're messaging you, they're messaging others.
If you don't mind hitting the report button, we will be more than happy to respond to it.
Over the past week we've seen a noticeable uptick in men joining, following dozens of accounts presenting as women, and then messaging them directly.
Some appear to be real people, some are fake accounts with stolen identities.
Either way, this is stalking and harassing behaviour, and we have zero tolerance for it.
For those affected by accounts we fail to catch, please report them. We _will_ take action, and you'll help keep the community safe and welcoming for all.
Diolch.
The Washington Post and NYT response to the
platform arbitrarily banning its reporters shows how
liberal institutions really struggle when dealing with
the far right.
They quietly negotiated behind the scenes to keep
their reporters on there, essentially leaving independ-
ent journalists and the intercept's journalists out in
the cold. This is before we even get to the targeted
purge of anti-fascist accounts that has gone largely
ignored by the mainstream press.
This meant that Musk was able to silence large
amounts of his critics while weakening the hand of
the liberal outlets. It has set the stage for a periodic
cycle of purges now.
| also want to be very clear here, this is a critique of
the editorial boards of these institutions and not the
journalists who were banned for covering Musk.
The only way to win that interaction is to go nuclear
and impose as many costs on Musk as possible
through a coordinated response on the front pages
of the major outlets with something like a blacked
out front page with the faces of the journalists below
a with a big with the headline
"MUSK BREAKS HIS WORD; KILLS FREE SPEECH, PURGES JOURNALISTS" etc.
Anything short of that means you're applying
pressure when you are in a weaker position to do so.
This is difficult for liberal institutions because of their
belief in civility politics, pretense of impartiality and
defacto trust for other institutions.
