@craigmaloney@octodon.social the company I currently work for (10+ years) didn't have a local office when I joined. Even head office was mostly virtual/remote. It is a consultancy, so a lot of work was at client premises, but I also had some long engagements (up to 12 months at a time) working from home. Now owned by a major telco so has offices available, but rarely a need to go there (a few times a year). At the beginning of the pandemic, before any government rules, they moved to full remote work for all possible staff over a weekend; and are still operating that way. It is nice being mostly back the way it was when I first joined. I prefer it.

@cidney congrats on finishing a campaign!
@Mayana a bunch of the books have been turned into plays and we see them about once a year from a local amateur group, in Brisbane Australia. There are also a few movies, and I put Hogfather on at least once a year.

I have encountered more image descriptions on Mastodon in 24 hours than I have in Twitter in a couple of years. Seriously. I'm not exaggerating.
As a blind person, this means a lot to me. If you read this and you describe your images, thank you so, so, so much on behalf of all of us. If you don't, now you know you'll be helping random Internet strangers make sense of your posts by typing in a few more words than usual.

Check out our final report from our tech intern, Kofi "Rukky" Oghenerukevwe -- she was able to build, test, and publish a CiviCRM extension that will help the FSF receive Bitcoin and Litecoin payments! https://u.fsf.org/3bo
@crasher35 what do you mean by "presence"? Different services can freely interact; that is what federation is meant for.
email masking request
@weirdwriter@dragonscave.space you will need an email provider, like the Gmail you have, or Microsoft Live, or maybe a third party like mail.com (has lots of alias domains).
For cheap email, there are places like mailbox.org. I know they have a temporary email addresses, but not sure which plan.
If you just want to filter spam, places like Gmail, Live, etc support plus (+) addresses, e.g. realemail+alias@gmail.com

I'm really impressed with the stuff @matrixdotorg@twitter.com is building. It's such a flexible platform, and true p2p regardless of internet access will enable lots of new kinds of applications. This is great: https://matrix.org/blog/2021/05/06/introducing-the-pinecone-overlay-network
