I like & get value from Goodreads, and have many connections there that I value. I'm also a fan of the #SocialWeb / #fediverse and believe in open protocols and data portability. I've optimistically setup a #BookWyrm account here: https://sfba.club/user/dcreemer . Reading is visible to followers only for now.
Is there any general advice on cross-posting from (e.g.) #PixelFed or #BookWyrm to #mastodon ? I know that if folks are interested specifically in my photos they could follow my pixelfed account, but I do see a lot of pictures posted here (and I like to see pictures here). #fediverse#question
@dcreemer I follow my PixelFed account on Mastodon, so I post to PixelFed, view the post via Mastodon, click the ellipsis (I use the Toot client), click Copy toot, and select ‘as a link’. Then I create a new toot in my Mastodon account and copy the link and post. It may seem like a lot of steps, but it goes quickly. The post preview works, so they see a small version of the image as part of the link to my PixelFed.
I feel that the people at #AWS that invented ODCRs for EC2 forgot what the acronyms mean.
On Demand Capacity Reservation for an Elastic Compute Cloud resource.
So now I need to pre-reserve my “on demand” capacity for my “elastic” cloud. How is this any better than just buying on-premise hardware? #amazon#cloud#EC2
I recently ate some apple pie, made with apples grown in the grove at Apple HQ, made by the good folks at the Apple cafe. This was an Apple Apple apple apple pie.
Just got the year end email from @seb and the SFBA instance team. What a great group, well run instance, and exemplary community in the #mastodon world.
Best part was the humor in the email footer: 😂
