@Sarahp has it recently taken a turn for the even worse? I log in occasionally for a volunteer gig and I was just struck by how scuzzy everything felt today. Feels like the kind of site that gives your computer a virus.

@Sarahp Yup. I call it Bird Chan.

@Sarahp excellent question imho.

@Sarahp Did not expect the annual report to make news but am pleasantly surprised ☺️

@Sarahp interestingly, an article from TechCrunch is balanced and overall positive about a free and open source, decentralised network. That's a sign that things are changing.

"Instagram plans to support ActivityPub"
oh no
Edit: even if they mean Threads, still: oh no

@Sarahp @niko this might interest you

@Sarahp If this gets somewhat tight integration with Mastodon, I'm certainly going to use it as well. It might solve the issue that interesting things often get buried on feed-based systems which makes them hard to find again when needed. Great initiative. :blobcatthumbsup:

@Sarahp I like the stickers, but why is the mastodon yeeting the chicken?

@Sarahp I see it too. Downloaded, using now, seems nice and familiar. Mastodon picking up steam!

Mammoth will be demo'ing next week at #FediForum, together with about a dozen other interesting fediverse apps.

I'd personally wait till it officially becomes open source before trying it, but at least it claims it will be soon. Could be worse, could be some company making a shamelessly ad and tracking ridden app to cash in on the collapse of Twitter.

@Sarahp WriteFreely is simpler, I always found wordpress difficult to use. The closer the blogging platform is to a word processor the better.

@Sarahp woah @pfefferle@mastodon.social @pfefferle@notiz.blog whoa, nice work!

@Sarahp excited to see when it’s available on Wordpress.com. It’s remained a ‘good enough’ fit for me for years now, but I don’t pay for custom plug-ins.
