Good Morning! :blobcatcoffee:

It's so cold here that vehicles are overheating because the antifreeze is frozen.

Some places in Alberta will reach -50, and are among the coldest places on earth ❄️

Reflecting on my 2 years on the fediverse, I've said some dumb shit I regret, had falling outs with people I respect and haven't lived up to the expectations of everyone.

This year I'll be working on myself, and if I've let you down, I'm sorry.

@dansup it may be valuable to actually reflect on specific instances where you know people felt let down on you, and let people know what behavior you're looking to change in the future.

It's always a process, and there's always opportunity for growth.

@dansup Takes a lot of courage to apologize in public. Thanks for all you do!

Little did I know when I posted this that I would come out as gay a few months later and meet the love of my life.

So many changes that year, all of them good!

Safe to say, I'm proud of my growth as a person and as a member of the fediverse.

Still wish I could go back and not burn bridges, but all I can do is strive to be a better human and I'll keep on keeping on ❤️

An academic paper about social networks misspelled Mastodon, Pleroma and Pixelfed lol

dansup

pixelfed.social says trans rights

Sadly that sticker is no longer with us, I put it on my cars back window and it didn't survive these crazy winters

Pour one out for the homie 🍺

dansup

twitter will embrace decentralization just like they did with 3rd party developers.

I never would have anticipated that @pixelfed would have grown to what it is today.

This shoutout from Cambodia made me tear up, I'm so happy that I can make a difference in the fediverse!

@pixelfed @dansup Good job! Making other people happy with your skills is the best!

@dansup @pixelfed Good times. Did this Fediverse talk in Phnom Penh, big tech meetings are _slowly_ starting to come back after Pando time. For sure there'll be more sharing to come. :)

This but for meta 🤣 jokes aside I’m eagerly awaiting their entry to the fediverse with caution.

Let’s hope for the best and prepare for the worst, but most of all, let’s not forget we’re all in this together and we all want the same thing more or less, freedom and control over our social presence ❤️

A year later, and I'm still not sure if I picked the best logo 😅

@dansup I like all of these! My favourites are the second last ones (is this how you say "vorletzte" in English?) from lines 3 and 4

Anna

@dansup You did. The color palette gives people a hint what to expect, while the circular nature means the image isn’t getting cut off when used in spots that get trimmed to that. It’s simple, but effective. The others could have worked, and some probably just as well or close enough, but this one clearly isn’t the wrong choice, and that, combined with what I’ve said above, makes it the right one. 😄

@dansup oh those are amazing. Who was the designer top notch work

dansup

I should have picked react instead of vue 😑

dansup

I'm so glad I focused on platform safety and security instead of rushing full federation.

As developers, there is a lot more we can do to provide an alternative that really takes privacy, safety and security seriously. #pixeldev

@dansup Which federation protocol parts did you omit from #PixelFed in order to sustain #privacy, safety, and #security?

dansup

ActivityPub breathalyzer when?

Just kidding, I can't toot sober.

Extarys :manjaro:

@dansup
Well, I can't toot when I sleep. So I stopped sleeping.

esmevane, sorry

@dansup definitely the best album that year, also one of the best ever. only problem is that it ends!

dansup

As much as I like seeing pixelfed mentioned so often, it shouldn't come at the expense of devs or users thinking its the only option.

The fediverse is much bigger than Mastodon, PeerTube and Pixelfed. I hope we don't forget that.

"We have enormous freedom. That’s not a gift that was given to us, it’s a legacy that was left to us by centuries of struggle. By centuries of people that most of whose names are completely forgotten, the ones who created the freedom and the rights we now have, and that will be taken away unless you constantly defend them."
