The #Mastodon team is amazing!

Have you noticed how they improved #notifications for us? 😀👍

They are now collapsed & grouped!

Even though it's such a small group of #devs, they take #feedback seriously: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/30328

If you have a suggestion or issue (not mentioned before (use the search function to find out)) you can post it on the @Mastodon #Github page: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues

A big thank you to all contributors!

Looking forward to everyone's notifications ❤️

Thankfully my Tailscale (which I sign into via GitHub) is still accessible.

But this has spooked me, and I think I will be relying less on GitHub and other services that can arbitrarily and without notice deny me access and remove hosted content. I will absolutely transition away from “sign in with [GitHub/whatever]” (which I already rarely used) where possible, and will no longer host on GH pages.

The web is great or whatever 😐

#github

Three days ago my #github account was apparently “flagged” (whatever that means).

I wasn’t notified about it. No email. No banner in my account. I only discovered it when a workflow I was testing wasn’t working and my signed commits were “unverified” because “no email address is associated with the committer”. A friend at work then told me my profile page 404’d.

8 hours later GitHub also deleted the codespace powering my GitHub pages-hosted website, taking it offline.

Props to @rolle for letting everyone know & advocating for this on #Github.

Now, how can we convince the WordPress team to install and activate the #ActivityPub plugin on their main blog‽ 🤔
