Now that I've finished my WeblogPoMo post for today, I can eat and finish the 11ty Conf videos (my entertainment for the rest of the night!)

Tumblr will remove their tipping feature on June 1. It was a payment integration with Stripe introduced two years ago.

Co-authored an update from the @MastodonEngineering team with my friend @renchap - a sneak peek at what is coming in 4.3 (and looking ahead from there). We'll aim to make these updates a regular feature for the blog. Let us know what you think! #MastodonAPI #SpreadMastodon https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/05/trunk-tidbits-april-2024/

Flipboard has created a newsletter on LinkedIn called “Fedicurious”. The fediverse has made it to LinkedIn.

Recently, they did a webinar on how federation works in Flipboard geared to content creators.

Oh no. No no no. I listed all my fediverse accounts on a single page. It's time for some spring cleaning. 😱

SpaceHost is out of beta. It’s a new hosting platform for LOTS of different fediverse platforms, not just Mastodon!

Ok this is playing a bit of “six degrees” here but I’m wondering if the part about Wordpress taking off after the Clinton affair and tumblr rising as a competitor is true?

With big players like Flipboard, Wordpress, Ghost and Threads entering the fediverse, along with bridges to Bluesky and more….your choice of platform will be less about content (you’ll see it everywhere!) and more about the app experience and features you prefer. 🥳

I think following specific hashtags of a profile would be useful. Technically it's like following a profile but the timeline posts filtered by specific hashtags. Perhaps similar logic on Mastodon, to hiding boosts from profile or filtering posts by subscribed languages.

Could probably solve the issue where folks create multiple accounts for different interests or circles.

My brain is telling me "you failed at everything today". But I'm trying to flip that to:

• I had fun coding on a new Mastodon API toy.
• I got one step further on a new SAML configuration for work
• I documented an attempt to get IceShrimp.NET installed

We went to lunch today and the person at the counter asked me to provide my "Star Wars Name" to call out when the order is ready. I just wasn't feeling it today, a bit grumpy and finally said: "Darth Karen"

I must admit I enjoyed hearing them call out "Darth Karen, your order is up!", since this place was teeming with them.

I don’t know what is more disappointing. Batgirl’s “hacking” skills or Batman’s password choices.

I'm enjoying One Piece on Netflix, as someone that hasn't watched the anime I can't complain about it not matching up.

I can tell it's a bit oversimplified, knowing how long and drawn out anime can get sometimes it's not a surprise. Fight scenes can literally last 3 episodes!

Working in an organization that has adopted Teams as its primary communication tool (though our department still uses Slack), this piece on “Why does Teams make us feel so disconnected?” by Martha Edwards is remarkably astute: https://www.marthaedwards.ca/why-ms-teams-is-not-a-good-alternative-to-slack/
