For now five days, #bitwarden developers refuse to realize that the problems with their #Firefox extension is solely due to the transfer from GitHub to addons.mozilla.org. The latest version of the extension on addons.mozilla.org is half the size of the previous ones and of the GitHub version (they should be identical!): https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/6286

➡️ https://joinbookwyrm.com

They are currently trying to get BookWyrm translated into more languages, so that more readers can use it. If you speak a language other than English, you can help translate at:

One of the first issues I had with Mastodon: the people who want you to put warnings on posts about politics.

No, sorry, I’m not going to do that, ever. If you want to ignore what’s going on in America right now, that’s your responsibility, not mine.
