Introducing the first alpha release of Mastodon 3.11 for Workgroups!

Available for Windows 95

Twitter users are all like “I don’t know if I can trust a bunch of career sysadmins and network engineers to run their own Mastodon instances” — meanwhile Elon is just running around the Twitter data center going “what’s this button do?”

Shaking off jet lag. We’re visiting All Hallows by the Tower Church, oldest church in London. I told Brad to be in the picture, but he said he hasn’t had his beauty sleep yet.

A cryptobro DMed me to ask if I wanted to join his mailing list.

I spent slightly too long making this to send in reply.

New Brian Blessed emoji just dropped…

People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

UPDATE: Here's the latest chart.

We're now at 14,000 new users joining per hour.

By the end of the night, we might have 7 million Mastodon users.

Drawing, hello!

It's time. #cats

A bunglethrow. Highly unethical, but very cosy.

After having to learn some New Video Stuff for a work project I decided to get some practice in, and as it's a #dreich day in the #Scottish hills I thought I'd play around with a memory of #summer.

This is #Strathy #beach on the north #Scotland #coast.

It's glorious.

Here's 10 minutes of the view from our picnic spot crammed into 15 seconds, with some additional scribbles.

Next time I am definitely going to take a #kite

Given that we are rapidly trying to build community here…

Can I ask you to do two key things:

1) Reshare other people’s posts - so your timeline is rich with other people’s posts for anyone browsing your content to discover.

2) Follow, follow, follow. That goes for following those posting good stuff - and also following those that follow you (as much as practically possible/sensible).

If you do these things, you’ll help us all network up at fast pace - and we all grow our voices & reach. ✌️

The Roundabout of Magic Delights by Hieronymus Bosch

I take off my blindfold. Before me is a gory tableau of death and destruction, bodies strewn across the landscape. The piñata is unscathed.
