Between the new publishing progress indicator and the (practically) live CSS refresh, Micro.blog on the web is a much better experience. Thanks @manton 🙌

FastMail > ProtonMail

And I’m just comparing their web apps.

Who else is ready to ship this pandemic right into the fucking sun?

Both the first Harry Potter film and Monsters, Inc. are 20 years old. 😬

So that’s the regular posts for @TIL done for the day. Second day back, I think I’m back on track.

But I do have… something else. 👀

One of the things I’m going to work on is the viability of backporting apps for Micro.blog. I think it makes sense within the context of the flexibility of Micro.blog as a platform and the philosophy of embracing the open web.

Technology is better when it is inclusive.

Good morning. Winter is on the way 👀

Our dishwasher is now working again 😭

Yes, @TIL is back.

Yes, to full activity.

Yes, there is more to come tonight. 👀

Cleanup. Then, done.

I’d like this on a t-shirt, please and thank you.

Make fewer complaints.

Create more solutions.

Looks like Fastmail is having problems again.

I will be so much happier if I can ever use my previously mentioned combination of Micro.blog apps but I’m also aware that most people really don’t have time for using multiple apps for the same social network.

Our new home is going to be an interesting test of my gradual movement away from the big social networks in recent years.

I’m fine with the idea of having accounts there again. The difference this time is that I know not to rely on them for anything in particular.

Another day, another conversation on Micro.blog in which I cannot even tell for whom the latest reply is meant. Between a character limit and proper threading I am convinced this would be easier and thus more attractive to use. Especially since replies are random on the timeline.

The “Is this…” meme was three years ago.

Apps I wish I could make myself:

  • Micro.blog with filters.
    • So that I can have a non-photo version to pair with Sunlit.
  • Micro.blog for books.

Unfortunately I am not an app developer and Micro.blog doesn’t include an “App Making for Dummies” guide.

TIL how to read binary. Thanks @neatnik!

Because I have an actual computer I’ve found it easier to work on different parts of @TIL. I now have parts of the project I work on to feel better about the parts that are frustrating in a given moment.

This is one of those things I realise that further motivates me to work.
